India, April 28 -- Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) technologies, which are trying to generate text, images, audio, and code, are no longer in the labs. GenAI is being adopted on a larger scale, which means cybercriminals can use it to create complex cybersecurity threats.

GenAI cybersecurity threats are about malicious use of AI by cyber attackers to increase precision, scale, and adaptability. GenAI cyber threats are different from most other cyber threats in four major ways: they happen faster than typical attacks; they can be harder to detect; they usually bypass traditional defenses; and they are very adaptable-they can adapt while the threat is live.
