Not a day goes by since the beginning of the year that we haven’t heard about ChatGPT, a language model developed by OpenAI. Chatbot answers questions, generates code, translates texts, and pleases students and tired office workers.
Could criminals take advantage of the chatbot? Should we be worried and expect cybersecurity problems?
ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence (AI)-based model. It learns from massive amounts of data and uses contextual data to improve the quality of its responses. Why is ChatGPT so controversial? On the one hand, the chatbot is a useful online security tool, but at the same time, hackers and cybercriminals are already interested in it.
According to Forbes, ChatGPT is already being used to create hacking tools, convincing the target victim through phishing attacks that she needs to disclose confidential information urgently. The chat bot creates malicious phishing emails. A phishing cyberattack is a hacker sending out emails to steal personal and organizational data.
Researchers have found that ChatGPT is able to write ransomware code. It’s malware that hackers use to break into information systems. Once inside, hackers can infiltrate the system and retrieve sensitive data from it.
Many experts fear that ChatGPT, and indeed any artificial intelligence-based technology, could be used to automate a large-scale fraud or mass disinformation campaign. The chatbot refused to hack the site, but it produced JavaScript code to search for credit card numbers. Analysts fear that by obtaining the website’s source code, ChatGPT could disassemble its functionality and provide all the information to criminals.
The Q&A portal Stack Overflow banned responses generated by ChatGPT from its platform. They were too often inaccurate and misleading.
Did you know that one in five employees is at risk of opening a phishing email, and one in three has downloaded malware at least once? More than 70% of employees who clicked on a phishing email didn’t realize it was sent from a fake phishing website. Result: data loss, work slowdown, financial costs.
ChatGPT can detect malicious and suspicious behavior. It detects emerging threats quite easily and helps prevent attacks before they happen. ChatGPT detects spam messages and malicious links in emails, successfully finds already known vulnerabilities, and offers quite effective measures to protect against them.
ChatGPT is a tool that creates opportunities, but it can also be a formidable weapon in the hands of scammers. What should be good, unfortunately, is often used for bad. ChatGPT is no exception.
Unfortunately, ChatGPT not only simplifies your work, but can also be used by phishers for phishing attacks. Want to avoid phishing? Delete all unwanted correspondence. Are you interested in the message? Call directly to determine exactly who you’re dealing with. Or contact Filio Force Canada.
