Check Point Research has released its first AI Security Report at RSA Conference 2025, revealing how cybercriminals are leveraging artificial intelligence for attacks. The report identifies four major AI-driven cyber threats: AI-enhanced impersonation, LLM data poisoning, AI-created malware, and weaponization of AI models.
Key findings show that attackers successfully mimicked Italy's defense minister using AI-generated audio, while Russia's Pravda network manipulated AI chatbots to repeat false narratives 33% of the time. Dark web services like FraudGPT and WormGPT are being used for hacking and fraud.
To counter these threats, Check Point recommends implementing AI-aware security frameworks, including AI-assisted threat detection, enhanced identity verification, and AI-context threat intelligence. The report emphasizes that organizations must now assume AI is embedded within all adversarial campaigns.
