In an interview with Infosecurity Magazine, ISC2 CISO Jon France discussed the influence of AI and deepfakes on cybersecurity and offered advice for security leaders. Deepfakes are becoming increasingly sophisticated and are being used in spearphishing and business email compromise attacks. Procedural controls, such as requiring secondary authority for high-value transactions, can help mitigate deepfake threats. Ransomware attackers are now focusing on denying access to data and exfiltrating and threatening to expose it. Security leaders are facing challenges due to the growing threat landscape, increasing sophistication of attackers, and the need to understand the language of business and prioritize risks. France advises security professionals to learn about business in order to progress in their careers. #ISC2Congress #AI #Deepfakes #CyberRisk #ProceduralControls #Ransomware #ThreatLandscape #Attackers #BusinessLanguage.
