Smishing, Vishing, and Phishing: Why Point Defenses Fail Against AI-Generated Threats
The New Face of Social Engineering The fastest way into an enterprise today isn’t through a firewall. It’s through a human. Attackers don’t need exploits when they can manipulate trust. That’s why phishing, smishing, and vishing attacks are exploding. Gartner and Deloitte estimate that deepfake-related fraud will cost $40B per year by 2027. At estimated […]
Why Deepfake AI Threats Pose a Rising Risk to Enterprises
Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing business operations but it’s also arming cybercriminals with tools that make social engineering and impersonation attacks far more convincing. One of the fastest-growing risks is deepfake-enabled cybercrime, where attackers use AI to convincingly mimic voices, video, or even entire identities to gain access to critical systems. Unlike traditional malware, deepfake-driven attacks […]
Why ITDR Fails to Protect Against Deepfake Threats—and What You Can Do About It
In 2024, deepfake fraud cost organizations an average of $500,000 per attack. That figure alone should give pause to any security leader relying solely on Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) to protect their enterprise. While ITDR plays a crucial role in monitoring internal identity misuse, it wasn’t built to recognize, much less stop, synthetic […]
How AI-Based Risks Like Deepfakes Are Forcing a Rethink of Cybersecurity Strategy
In today’s enterprise environment, artificial intelligence is both a productivity catalyst—and a weapon. While organizations race to integrate AI into everything from customer service to threat detection, attackers are doing the same. Nowhere is this duality more dangerous than with deepfakes—AI-generated synthetic video, audio, and images that look real, sound authentic, and can fool even […]
Video Deepfake Detection Isn’t Enough—Here’s Why You Still Might Get Fooled
AI-enhanced fraud is advancing so rapidly that what once felt like science fiction is now disrupting boardrooms, financial systems, and even governments. And while the cybersecurity industry has responded with deepfake detection tools—powered by AI models trained to identify synthetic voice and video content—the uncomfortable truth is this: Video deepfake detection alone is not enough […]
The Deepfake Dilemma: Why Prevention Fails Without Simplicity
Deepfakes aren’t coming—they’re already here. From synthetic voice scams to AI-generated video impersonations, organizations are facing a wave of fraud that bypasses traditional security tools and exploits one critical vulnerability: human trust. As synthetic media gets more realistic and accessible, security teams are scrambling to respond. The industry has flooded the market with new detection […]
