Deepfake calls, flawlessly generated phishing emails and social engineering 2.0: why AI-based attacks became a highly profitable business model in 2024 - and what companies need to do about it now.
Artificial intelligence (AI), once developed for innovation and efficiency, has become a weapon in the hands of cybercriminals.
2024 marks the turning point. AI-based attacks are no longer isolated cases - they are a highly profitable business model. Deepfakes, perfectly generated phishing emails and sophisticated social engineering attacks threaten companies of every size.
