3 terms

social engineering technical

"With rising risks including data privacy breaches, social engineering, model manipulation"

Social engineering is the practice of manipulating people into revealing confidential information, granting access, or taking actions that compromise security, often by posing as a trusted person or using urgent, persuasive stories. For investors it matters because these scams can lead to direct financial loss, theft of sensitive corporate data, disrupted operations, or damage to a company’s reputation — similar to a con artist who tricks a business into handing over its keys.

model manipulation technical

"With rising risks including data privacy breaches, social engineering, model manipulation"

Model manipulation is the deliberate alteration or selective use of financial, clinical, or risk models to produce misleading outputs that flatter performance, hide problems, or justify decisions. For investors it matters because these models act like recipes or maps used to value companies and judge risk—if the recipe is tweaked to hide bad ingredients, the resulting forecast, price target or safety estimate will be unreliable and can lead to poor investment choices or unexpected losses.

generative systems technical

"manage risks tied to generative systems and data integrity"

Generative systems are computer models or software that create new content, designs, predictions, or data—such as text, images, code, or molecular structures—based on patterns learned from existing information. Investors pay attention because these systems can enable new products, lower costs and speed development like an automated recipe book turning ideas into finished dishes, but they also introduce risks around accuracy, regulation, intellectual property and ongoing operational costs.
