Experts at Telos Corporation, one of the leaders in cybersecurity and risk management for the world’s most security-conscious organizations, predict cyberattacks will become increasingly more sophisticated and convincing than ever before in 2025. As AI continues to dominate, these cyberattacks will be counteracted by an increasing use of biometrics across multiple modes in several industries.
Law Floyd, Chief of Security Operations
AI-powered cyberattacks will get more sophisticated and evasive
“As we progress even further into the age of AI, cyberattacks will become increasingly more sophisticated and more convincing than ever. AI has been, and will continue to be used in catastrophic ways across the security landscape, prompting the need for responsible AI usage policies and AI guardrails at every organization. These challenges involving AI are complex, and will require comprehensive solutions that offer a holistic view into AI usage, data governance, and more. Along with managing AI, it will be essential to utilize AI technology to ‘fight fire with fire,’ as the speed at which these risks will grow will outpace the available manpower. Integrating new capabilities and understanding the ever changing and expanding threat landscape will be essential in remaining vigilant in this unprecedented era of cyberattacks.”
Chace Hatcher, Senior VP of Technology & Strategy
Use of biometric security will skyrocket
“As travel has increased in a post-COVID world, airports will continue to look to accelerate the passenger experience and minimize contact and inconvenience. The rise of digital identity solutions driven by biometrics offers the obvious solution. Offering multiple modes of biometrics, such as face and fingerprint, to accommodate a variety of traveler conditions and cultures will be paramount. Furthermore, we will see this not only in air travel, but I believe this is the inevitable direction in high-traffic settings where identification is a must, such as sporting events and entertainment.”
