Business of Tech: Daily 10-Minute IT Services Insights Cyber Threats & AI, Congress Passes Privacy for Jet Owners, PwC Becomes First Reseller of ChatGPT
Cybercriminals are increasingly utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) for sophisticated attacks and fraud, as discussed in the podcast episode. One notable application of AI by cybercriminals is in phishing attacks, where generative AI tools like ChatGPT are being integrated into spam-generating services. This enables cybercriminals to craft more convincing and personalized phishing emails, heightening the success rate of their attacks. Moreover, AI is being harnessed in deepfake audio scams, allowing scammers to convincingly mimic someone's voice. This technology can be exploited to circumvent identity checks and manipulate AI systems, posing a significant threat to individuals and organizations.
The proliferation of AI in cybercrime poses challenges for cybersecurity professionals and organizations. With the capacity to generate realistic content and manipulate information, cybercriminals can execute more sophisticated and targeted attacks, making it increasingly difficult to detect and prevent such threats. As AI technology advances, it is imperative for cybersecurity measures to evolve to effectively counter these emerging threats. Organizations must implement robust security protocols, such as multi-factor authentication and regular vulnerability patching, to defend against AI-powered cyberattacks and protect sensitive data from malicious actors.
PwC has taken a significant step by becoming the first reseller of ChatGPT Enterprise through a partnership with OpenAI. This strategic move allows businesses to procure the generative AI service through PwC instead of directly from OpenAI. The primary objective behind this partnership is for PwC to enhance its services to clients interested in leveraging AI to optimize their workloads. PwC already employs custom GPTs for various tasks and views AI as a means to drive increased impact and productivity for their clients.
