AI-Driven Cyber Threats Targeting Banks Globally

AI-Driven Cyber Threats Targeting Banks Globally

A recent report by CERT-In, CSIRT-Fin, and SISA warns that cybercriminals are using AI to launch faster and more sophisticated attacks on banks.

These attacks include deepfake impersonation, AI-generated phishing, and ransomware.

The report finds that six out of seven cyber threat predictions from last year have already become reality, showing how quickly the threat landscape is changing.

Cybercriminals are now targeting trust and interconnected systems, making it harder for banks to defend themselves.

The report recommends that banks move beyond just following security rules and instead adopt continuous security checks and stronger identity protection to stay safe.
