Here’s our plain language explainer of yesterday’s Five Eyes cyber security agencies joint call to action about the threat of AI.
The new generation of malicious AI:
- Are not a future threat; they are here, right now.
- They make it easier and faster for cybercriminals to attack you.
You need to:
- Fully understand your cyber risks.
- Ensure your staff are trained in good cyber practices.
- Ensure your cyber defences are adequate for your needs.
- Keep software updated, especially with security updates.
- Ensure someone is responsible for maintaining your cyber safety.
- Keep up to date with advice and guidance from organisations like NCSC.
How can Outfox help?
Outfox specialises in helping small to medium businesses with their cyber risks. We can help you identify your cyber risks, and suggest measures to take that are appropriate for your specific size and type of business.

We even tailor the course curriculum to each staff member, so we address each person’s specific cyber weaknesses first.
