Background for this topic.
Artificial intelligence (AI) describes computer systems that perform tasks such as recognizing patterns, making predictions, understanding language, or generating content. In security reporting, the term commonly includes machine-learning models used for detection and analysis, as well as generative AI applications that produce text, code, images, or other outputs.
AI can help analyze security telemetry, prioritize vulnerabilities, and support investigations, but its outputs can be wrong or manipulated. Important attack surfaces include prompt injection that steers an application into unintended actions, sensitive data being exposed through prompts or model outputs, and excessive permissions granted to AI systems that use external tools. Models can also be degraded by poisoned training data or evaded with carefully crafted inputs. Practitioners should protect training and operational data, limit model access and tool permissions, test for adversarial behavior, and require appropriate human validation before high-impact decisions.

In the wrong hands, malicious actors can use chatbots to unleash sophisticated cyberattacks that could have devastating consequences.
As cybercriminals tap the power of machine learning and generative AI to outwit fraud-detection systems, online fraud-prevention technologies must evolve accordingly.
APIs, more formally known as application programming interfaces, empower apps and microservices to communicate and share data. However, this level of connectivity doesn't come without major risks. Hackers can exploit vulnerabilities in APIs to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or even take control of the entire system. Therefore, it's essential to have a robust API security posture to

Vulcan Cyber's Voyager18 research team called the technique "AI package hallucination"
Attackers could exploit a common AI experience—false recommendations—to spread malicious code via developers that use ChatGPT to create software.
AI is beefing up the cyber arsenals of both attackers and defenders Sponsored Feature Email is a popular target for cybercriminals, offering an easy way of launching an attack disguised as an innocent message. One moment of inattention on the part of the recipient and the door is open to malware, spam, phishing, perhaps even a dose of the dreaded ransomware. Entire organisations can suffer, not just individual victims.…
