A study conducted by researchers at Charles Darwin University (CDU) and Christ Academy Institute for Advanced Studies has highlighted the significant potential of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools in combating cybercrime. The study specifically focused on the use of GenAI in penetration testing (pentesting), a security test that identifies vulnerabilities in a cybersecurity system. The researchers utilized ChatGPT, a GenAI tool, to perform various pentesting activities such as reconnaissance, scanning, vulnerability assessments, exploitation, and reporting. The results showed that ChatGPT was particularly effective in exploiting vulnerabilities in remote machines. However, the researchers emphasized the importance of responsible AI deployment, data security and privacy, as w...
