As artificial intelligence drives changes in cybersecurity, industry professionals have begun assessing various risks. While businesses are expected to achieve effective protection against threats through AI, there's a foresight that the same technology might escalate cyberattacks. According to the Global Security Research Report, 29% of organizations believe that artificial intelligence will be one of the biggest threats to the cybersecurity sector in the next 12 months. Watchguard, a global leader in integrated cybersecurity, is examining three anticipated AI trends for 2024.

Artificial intelligence, which holds the potential to revolutionize many fields, has become one of the critical variables in the cybersecurity sector. Consequently, industry professionals are evaluating the opportunities and risks of AI technology within the framework of cybersecurity. It's anticipated that while AI could potentially help businesses protect against threats, it might also lead to an increase in cyberattacks. Therefore, it's crucial for organizations and cybersecurity experts to regularly reassess their expectations from AI and its intended usage. According to the Global Security Research Report, 29% of organizations anticipate that AI will be one of the most significant threats to the cybersecurity sector in 2024. Watchguard, a global leader in integrated cybersecurity, outlines three anticipated AI trends that will dominate 2024.

1. Increase in Vishing: Vishing, a type of attack conducted via phone calls, currently has limited preference but is expected to see an increase in usage next year. The combination of convincing deepfake voices and large language models (LLMs) that don't require human intervention for deceiving victims is expected to result in an escalation of vishing attack volumes in 2024.

2. Rise of AI-supported Tools: It's anticipated that cybercriminals will increasingly use and purchase AI-supported tools next year. These tools are expected to become top sellers on the dark web, while cybercriminals are likely to utilize AI to enhance their attacks in the coming months.

3. Utilization of AI by MSPs: AI is predicted to become a crucial tool for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) in 2024. Watchguard expects MSPs to pivot towards integrated platforms with robust automation through AI and machine learning to optimize their business models. By implementing AI in their service offerings, MSPs can double their operational capacities and meet the increasing demand for cybersecurity services.
