Ransomware has become a formidable cyber threat, especially with the rise of generative AI. By leveraging AI's capacity for adaptive code, automated vulnerability detection, and personalized spear-phishing, attackers create highly effective, stealthy, evolving ransomware campaigns. Deepfake technology adds powerful layer psychological manipulation, increasing likelihood victim compliance. This chapter explores how AI-infused bypasses traditional security measures through polymorphism, targeted social engineering, exploit development. It offers real-world case studies theoretical scenarios illustrating severity these threats outlines countermeasures spanning AI-based incident response, policy recommendations, threat intelligence sharing. merging insights from AI research cybersecurity practice, stakeholders can better anticipate mitigate escalating AI-driven risks.

Cyber threats are becoming more advanced, and so is cybersecurity, which getting intellectual better at hiding its presence. The requirement to achieve the balance between proactive resistive threat-hunting measures in this dynamic environment very high. Part four outlines how new AI techniques enable design of existing processes for hunting potential threats. main objective digress into core principles threat hunting, starting from being including scenarios deducing clues based on hypothesis. Then, authors will highlight limitations conventional methods detecting gimmicks that fool even skilled hunters with an unseen smoking hiddenly a never-ending evolutionary process. Two well-studied approaches tackling these challenges generative models like adversarial networks (GANs) variational autoencoders (VAEs).

ChatGPT, a Large Language Model (LLM) utilizing Natural Processing (NLP), has caused concerns about its impact on job sectors, including cybersecurity. This study assesses ChatGPT’s impacts in non-managerial cybersecurity roles using the NICE Framework and Technological Displacement theory. It also explores potential to pass top certification exams. Findings reveal promise streamline some jobs, especially those requiring memorization. Moreover, this paper highlights challenges limitations, such as ethical implications, LLM Artificial Intelligence (AI) security. The suggests that LLMs like ChatGPT could transform landscape, causing losses, skill obsolescence, labor market shifts, mixed socioeconomic impacts. A shift focus from memorization critical thinking, collaboration between developers professionals, is recommended.

Advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing have culminated sophisticated technologies such as transformer models, generative AI chatbots. Chatbots are software applications created to simulate conversation with human users. surged popularity owing their versatility user-friendly nature, which made them indispensable across a wide range of tasks. This article explores the dual nature chatbots realm cybersecurity highlights roles both defensive tools offensive tools. On one hand, enhance organizational cyber defenses by providing real-time threat responses fortifying existing security measures. other adversaries exploit perform advanced cyberattacks, since lowered technical barrier generate phishing, malware, cyberthreats. Despite implementation censorship systems, malicious actors find ways bypass these safeguards. Thus, this paper first provides an overview historical development large models (LLMs), including functionality, applications, societal effects. Next, we explore dualistic surveying most representative works on attacks involving chatbots’ uses. We also present experimental analyses illustrate evaluate different Finally, open issues challenges regarding duality highlighted potential future research directions discussed promote responsible usage strategies.
