Are we only one prompt away from using AI for evil?

In this week's episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we explore a concerning reality about AI and cybersecurity.

As AI becomes more prevalent within the threat actor community, exploits are being developed faster than humans can patch. The tools that help developers debug code can just as easily be used to weaponize vulnerabilities.

The line between using AI for good versus bad is surprisingly thin. AI can help you find errors in code and suggest fixes. But that same process can be redirected with a simple prompt change. The technology doesn't distinguish between defensive and offensive intent.

The barrier between security tool and attack tool is just one prompt away.

Listen to the full episode for the complete discussion on AI-assisted attacks, including coverage of the Oracle EBS exploitation campaign, Velociraptor being weaponized in ransomware attacks, and the latest research on LLM poisoning.
