Cybercriminals lure LLMs to the dark side

A new AI security report from Check Point Software shows how cybercriminals are co-opting generative AI and large language models (LLMs) in order to damage trust in digital identity.

"The swift adoption of AI by cyber criminals is already reshaping the threat landscape," says Lotem Finkelstein, director of Check Point Research.

At the heart of these developments is AI's ability to convincingly impersonate and manipulate digital identities, dissolving the boundary between authentic and fake.
