Cybersecurity agencies for Canada and its Five Eyes allies have issued a whole-of-society \u201ccall to action\u201d that warns artificial intelligence is \u201crapidly transforming cyber risk,\u201d allowing attackers to exploit vulnerabilities at ever-increasing speed.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the joint advisory says AI offers \u201cpowerful tools\u201d to strengthen cyber defences and urges organizations to integrate them into their core business strategies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile AI will help us improve cyber defence over time, it also accelerates the speed, scale, and sophistication of cyber threats,\u201d the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security and its counterparts in the U.S., Britain, Australia and New Zealand said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe timeline is not years, it is months.\u201d<\/p>\n

The advisory says the arrival and rapid advancement of frontier AI models that can find and exploit unknown vulnerabilities faster than humans means cyber risk \u201ccan no longer be treated as a purely technical issue.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a core business risk and leadership responsibility,\u201d it says. \u201cBoards and executives should ensure cyber resilience is in place and works under pressure.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not enough to have controls,\u201d the advisory continues. \u201cLeaders must be confident those controls will perform during a real incident. This requires reassessing long-standing trade-offs and using AI deliberately to strengthen defence \u2013 not just improve efficiency.\u201d<\/p>\n

Organizations across all sectors are being urged to take \u201curgent\u201d action on limiting system access, invest in training and preparedness, accelerate protocols and timelines for security updates and patching vulnerabilities, and enforce strong permissions and authentication for verified users.<\/p>\n
