EP 44 - The Rise of Prompt Engineering: How AI Fuels Script Kiddies

In this episode of Trust Issues, CyberArk’s resident Technical Evangelist, White Hat Hacker and Transhuman Len Noe joins host David Puner for a discussion about the emerging threat of AI kiddies, a term that describes novice attackers using large language models (LLMs) and chatbots to launch cyberattacks without any coding skills. Noe explains how these AI kiddies use prompt engineering to circumvent the built-in protections of LLMs like ChatGPT and get them to generate malicious code, commands and information. He also shares his insights on how organizations can protect themselves from these AI-enabled attacks by applying the principles of Zero Trust, identity security and multi-layered defense. All this and a dollop of transhumanism … Don’t be a bot – check it out!
