AI-Driven Social Engineering Threats Outpace Traditional Security Training

• •Generative AI enables advanced social engineering tactics like deepfakes and vishing.
• •Traditional security training methods are outdated and ineffective against modern threats.
• •New platforms like KnowBetter offer adaptive training tailored to individual employee risks.

As generative AI evolves, traditional security awareness training is becoming obsolete. Frame Security launched KnowBetter to address this gap, emphasizing the need for adaptive training that reflects current threats. Organizations are still using outdated phishing templates, leaving employees vulnerable to sophisticated attacks like vishing and deepfakes. The shift in training focus is driven by increased scrutiny from regulators and cyber insurers on human risk management. Security teams must now assess their human risk in real-time, adapting to the evolving tactics of attackers. The urgency for updated training solutions is underscored by the rapid advancement of AI technologies used by cybercriminals.
