In less than five minutes, it is now possible to clone a person\u2019s face and voice using Artificial Intelligence.<\/p>\n

This idea, which just a few years ago seemed like something out of science fiction, was one of the central topics at the cybersecurity training day<\/strong> recently held by the Civil Guard in Valencia<\/strong>. There, officers from Team @<\/strong> \u2014specialised in cybercrime\u2014 worked on a scenario that is already part of the present: a new generation of AI-driven threats.<\/p>\n

The session featured the participation of Telef\u00f3nica<\/strong>, which contributed expert knowledge on how these technologies are transforming both cybercrime and the strategies used to combat it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A Change of Pace in Digital Threats<\/h2>\n

One of the main challenges that Artificial Intelligence introduces to cybersecurity is acceleration.<\/p>\n

Changes no longer occur over months, but in a matter of days. Tools evolve rapidly and, with them, so do attack techniques. This forces a rethinking of traditional defence models, which have historically been more reactive.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, AI has significantly reduced barriers to entry. Activities that previously required advanced knowledge or substantial technical resources can now be carried out by a single person from a computer. This multiplies the potential scale of the attacks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Deepfakes: The Challenge of Identity<\/h2>\n

Within this new context, deepfakes<\/strong> have become one of the main sources of concern.<\/p>\n

The ability to generate synthetic content \u2014 voice, image, or video \u2014 with a high degree of realism introduces a new level of complexity. Identity theft is no longer a rudimentary attempt, but rather a simulation that is difficult to detect, even for experienced users.<\/p>\n

This scenario has direct implications in areas such as customer relations, identity verification, and fraud protection.<\/p>\n

Anticipation as a Strategy<\/h2>\n

In light of these developments, cybersecurity needs to move towards more proactive models.<\/p>\n

Artificial Intelligence itself, when applied correctly, can improve threat detection,…<\/strong><\/p>\n
