Deepfake Attacks Are About to Surge, Experts Warn
#1
Information 
Quote:Artificial intelligence and the rise of deepfake technology is something cybersecurity researchers have cautioned about for years and now it’s officially arrived. Cybercriminals are increasingly sharing, developing and deploying deepfake technologies to bypass biometric security protections, and in crimes including blackmail, identity theft, social engineering-based attacks and more, experts warn.
 
Time to get those cybersecurity defenses ready.
 
A drastic uptick in deepfake technology and service offerings across the Dark Web is the first sign a new wave of fraud is just about to crash in, according to a new report from Recorded Future, which ominously predicted that deepfakes are on the rise among threat actors with an enormous range of goals and interests.
 
“Within the next few years, both criminal and nation-state threat actors involved in disinformation and influence operations will likely gravitate towards deepfakes, as online media consumption shifts more into ‘seeing is believing’ and the bet that a proportion of the online community will continue to be susceptible to false or misleading information,” the Recorded Future report said.
 
Like most novel technology, deepfakes’ first incubator was pornography, the report pointed out, but now that it’s ricocheting around the crime-ridden corners of the internet, its development is getting supercharged by seasoned cybercriminals.
