2024 Cybersecurity Trends

Keep an eye out

What does 2024 have in store for the world of cybersecurity?

In 2024, the world of cybersecurity is poised for several significant trends. First, organizations will increasingly adopt specialized language models that provide tailored and actionable insights. These agile models empower security teams to adapt swiftly to evolving threats. While large language models have made an impact, they still struggle with understanding the intricacies of specialized cybersecurity datasets. Therefore, smaller, more focused language models will take center stage, enhancing cyber resilience through real-time data training.

Secondly, the emergence of AI-generated threats presents both challenges and opportunities. Threat actors are likely to exploit generative AI for sophisticated phishing campaigns and the proliferation of deepfakes. Organizations must stay ahead by harnessing AI for defense before malicious actors can leverage it against them. As the cyber landscape evolves, proactive measures remain crucial in safeguarding against these risks. Stay vigilant! Source here.

We at Celfocus aim to prevent AI-related security incidents by staying ahead of the curve, by focusing on different training topics related to this matter, to better educate our personnel, as well as studying how to implement new AI regulations, such as AI Act.

Word of the Edition - GPT

There are several words that we come across regularly, but don’t know the meaning of. Such is the case of “GPT” (Generative Pre-trained Transformers), these models are revolutionizing the field of artificial intelligence. They’re not just algorithms, they’re modern storytellers, spinning tales from lines of code.
