AI Innovations Unleashed - Episode 2: The Code Crackers: AI in Cybercrime & Digital Forensics

Join Dr. JR and Dr. Aris Thorne as they dive into the high-stakes world where artificial intelligence combats digital crime.

In this episode:

  • The Cyber Battlefield: Discover the staggering scale of cybercrime, a global threat predicted to cost $10.5 trillion annually by 2025, surpassing all major illegal drug trades combined. Learn how a business falls victim to ransomware every 11 seconds , and the immense volume of data (175 zettabytes by 2025) that makes human-only defense impossible.
  • AI's Essential Role: Explore how AI serves as the ultimate "code cracker," crucial for real-time threat and fraud detection. Understand how AI sifts through billions of transactions to spot anomalies humans would miss, acting as a hyper-vigilant digital bouncer.
  • Deepfakes Unmasked: Get a clear definition of deepfakes and their increasing impact on society and the economy, highlighted by the May 2024 Arup deepfake scam where fraudsters used AI to imitate executives and trick an employee into wiring £20 million. We discuss the global nature and difficulty of tracing these AI-generated fakes.
  • Digital Forensics: Learn what digital forensics entails, the specialists who perform this vital work, and the field's evolution since the 1980s.
  • The AI Arms Race: Unpack the concept of the "AI arms race" – the escalating competition where both cybercriminals and defenders leverage AI. We discuss its history, major players (nations and tech giants), and profound impact on global society, leading to a future of largely automated cyber warfare.
  • Public Preparedness: Crucially, find out what you can do to prepare for this ongoing AI arms race. Get practical tips on digital security, from strong passwords and multi-factor authentication to identifying sophisticated phishing attempts and regularly updating your software.

Don't miss this insightful conversation on how AI is fighting fire with fire in the digital realm.
