Cyber-criminals are using AI to create convincing fake websites: it’s becoming impossible to tell the difference between a genuine offer and a malicious trap
Executives are under pressure to roll out AI, but without proper governance, secure systems, and cultural safeguards, the rush to deploy risks doing more harm than good.
