AI-Driven Cyber Attacks: Security Experts Discuss Solutions at Global Talent Forum 2025

As artificial intelligence (AI) technology advances, cyber attacks utilizing AI are becoming increasingly sophisticated. How should individuals and businesses respond? Security experts from both domestic and international backgrounds gathered in Seoul at the Grand Walkerhill Seoul for the Global Talent Forum 2025 to discuss this pressing issue.
Daryl Pereira, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) for Google Cloud in the Asia-Pacific region, emphasized during a panel discussion on Generative AI Utilization and Security that South Korea, with its world-class internet connectivity, is among the nations most vulnerable to AI security threats. He stated, "Since we are venturing into uncharted territory, both individuals and the nation must respond to these security threats."
Experts unanimously agreed that as generative AI becomes more widespread, cyber attacks are also becoming more advanced. Jang No-ryun, leader of Naver Clouds Security Services, explained, "Cyber attacks have escalated beyond simple monetary gain or information theft; we are now witnessing scenarios where political instability is induced by creating fake news that mimics national leaders using deepfake technology." Jang Yong-min, Executive Vice President of Security Business at Samsung SDS, added, "Attacks on AI are diversifying, such as contaminating the data that companies utilize, leading internal AI to produce inaccurate results. While the advancements in generative AI have made certain aspects more convenient, hackers are also leveraging this same technology, creating a double-edged sword."
Despite the increasing threats to cybersecurity, there is a significant shortage of specialized personnel to combat these challenges. CISO Pereira noted that various sectors, including technology companies, financial institutions, and public agencies, are becoming targets for cyber attacks, highlighting the urgent need for skilled security experts to address these growing threats.
