Will deepfake threats undermine cybersecurity in 2025?
Briefly

Deepfake technology is a rapidly advancing threat in cybersecurity, particularly seen in phishing tactics and impersonation schemes. In 2024, a Singapore company lost $25 million due to a deepfake impersonation of its CFO, showcasing the financial risks involved. Additionally, a North Korean deepfake threat actor even managed to deceive the cybersecurity firm KnowBe4 into employment. These incidents highlight the urgent need for organizations to improve employee awareness and cybersecurity measures against such sophisticated attacks, as the stakes grow higher in terms of financial loss and operational security disruptions.
Deepfake technology poses a serious threat to organizations, making employee education and robust cybersecurity measures essential to prevent impersonation and infiltration.
