Ai, Deception And Deepfakes When Trust Becomes The Primary Attack Surface

This talk addresses the growing threat of AI-generated deception, highlighting how adversaries now exploit human trust instead of merely code vulnerabilities. The speaker discusses the impact of deepfakes, synthetic voices, and hyper-personalized social engineering on identity verification, demonstrating how these technologies turn various stakeholders into targets for ransomware and fraud. The session includes insights on mapping AI deception attack chains, deploying real-time detection for deepfakes, and implementing governance frameworks that treat trust signals as vital indicators of risk.
