In the 50th episode of the Trust Issues podcast, host David Puner interviews Justin Hutchens, an innovation principal at Trace3 and co-host of the Cyber Cognition podcast (along with CyberArk’s resident Technical Evangelist, White Hat Hacker and Transhuman Len Noe). They discuss the emergence and potential misuse of generative AI, especially natural language processing, for social engineering and adversarial hacking. Hutchens shares his insights on how AI can learn, reason – and even infer human emotions – and how it can be used to manipulate people into disclosing information or performing actions that compromise their security. They also talk about the role of identity in threat monitoring and detection, and the challenges and opportunities AI presents organizations in defending against evolving threats and how we can harness its power for the greater good. Tune in to learn more about the fascinating and ever-changing landscape of adversarial AI and identity security.
