Over 80% of global companies are using AI to enhance operations, but this growth also brings risks, particularly from nation-state actors involved in cyber espionage and attacks. Events like the AI Action Summit signal a shift toward viewing AI through a national security lens. Nations are interested in using AI not only for growth but also for defense strategies, which has raised concerns about the weaponization of AI in cyber operations by advanced persistent threat groups. This necessitates a reassessment of cyber security strategies to address AI's evolving threat landscape.
AI is already being weaponised to support cyber attack tactics, including reconnaissance and resource development to target industries and their secrets.
Focusing on particular models, vendors, or states misses a broader point: AI is fundamentally altering the threat landscape in cyber security.
