GHC Warns Cyberattacks Will Increase with The Rise of AI

The fast development of innovative AI capabilities is increasing cyberattacks and decreasing the entrance barrier for less competent hackers to do digital harm.

According to Reuters, the reduced entrance barrier would most certainly lead to a global increase in ransomware assaults, in which thieves encrypt computer systems for a digital ransom.

Criminals are encrypting computer systems in exchange for a digital ransom, according to a report from the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), which is part of GCHQ.

Intelligence agencies around the world are dealing with the rise of potential security issues linked to algorithms that can generate human-sounding interactions, known as LLMs.

The security ramifications of AI are still emerging. Authorities in Britain, the United States, and Canada have reported that hackers have embraced the technology.
