Cybersecurity experts warn of consequences in employee AI use

More from this show

Cybersecurity experts are warning that as more companies continue to train their employees on the responsible use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), we could see a marked increase by those very same employees for internal theft, sensitive information sharing and much more.

Nadya Bliss, Ph.D., Executive Director of the Global Security Initiative at ASU, joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss these emerging cybersecurity concerns. Dr. Bliss highlighted the consequences of employee AI use and provided insight into how businesses can adopt AI responsibly while minimizing potential risks.

According to Dr. Bliss, we could see as early as next year at least one global brand impacted by fraud perpetrated by an insider to whom it provided educational AI training.

The rise of AI technology presents a double-edged sword: It offers tremendous potential for efficiency and innovation, but it also creates new vulnerabilities. Understanding these risks and implementing safeguards is crucial for organizations, Dr. Bliss explained.
