Global warning: Artificial intelligence increasingly used in cyberattacks
Major technology companies around the world, including Cloudflare, CrowdStrike, IBM, and Oracle, have issued an important warning regarding digital security. Experts point out that the use of artificial intelligence (AI) has led to a significant increase in the number of sophisticated cyberattacks, which are becoming increasingly difficult to detect.
This new technology allows cybercriminals to create much more convincing phishing messages and to automate attacks on computer systems. In this context, companies and institutions in Romania are advised to constantly update their protective measures to prevent data loss or the disruption of operations.
Specialists emphasize that AI-powered attacks can target both the private sector and critical state infrastructure. Because these attacks are fast and adapt in real time, traditional defense methods are no longer always sufficient to stop attempts at fraud or information theft.
To protect themselves, users and companies are encouraged to use two-factor authentication and to be extremely cautious with messages received via email or social media. Digital education remains the best method of prevention against these modern threats that are constantly evolving along with technology.
