MetTel's CTO on the dual threats of AI and quantum computing for IT leaders

CTO Ed Fox discussed with CIO Online the increasing security threats posed by evolving AI and quantum computing in the coming months and years. Ed presented on the risks and opportunities of both to our top enterprise clients at MetTel's 2025 Innovation Summit. If you're road-mapping for Agentic AI, Quantum Communications, AI & Quantum Security, space-based communications, Private 5G, or energy management in the AI era, follow MetTel.

Building on @Teleglobals’ point about AI in #CloudSecurity: AI is clearly dual use attackers automate recon and phishing at scale, but defenders can use it to cut noise and spot weak signals across logs. What I’m seeing work in the field: • Cloud realities first: The shared-responsibility model still bites. Start with identity, least privilege, strong auth (hardware keys where possible), and continuous access reviews. • GenAI/LLM safety: Guardrails matter, data minimization, retrieval allow-listing, prompt-injection testing, secrets isolation, and output validation before any high-impact action. • Automate the mundane: Use AI to close misconfig loops (detect → explain → fix) rather than just create more alerts. Curious: what’s the one control you’d automate first in a multi-cloud setup? #Cybersecurity #AI #CloudSecurity #ZeroTrust

Can artificial intelligence reshape the cybersecurity landscape? Our latest report highlights how AI enables spotting, deciphering, and responding to cyberattack signals before they occur. At the same time, AI-driven offensive attacks, phishing, and ransomware threats are increasing rapidly.

🚨 LunaLock Ransomware: the new threat training AI with your data The LunaLock ransomware has taken digital extortion to a new level: it doesn’t just steal information, it also feeds stolen data into artificial intelligence models 🤖📂. This approach creates a double risk: 1️⃣ Exposure of sensitive data from companies and individuals. 2️⃣ Enhanced attacker capabilities, as their AI systems are trained with real, private information. 🔍 At Aiuken Cybersecurity, we are closely monitoring this evolution, strengthening our detection, response, and protection capabilities against attacks that combine ransomware and artificial intelligence. #AiukenCybersecurity #Ransomware #LunaLock #AIThreats #Cybersecurity #ThreatIntelligence #DataProtection

AI agents play a crucial role in network operations, functioning as active entities alongside users and applications. Their reliance on the networking infrastructure underscores the need for enhanced security measures. To safeguard agentic AI communications effectively, the adoption of approaches such as Zero Trust is imperative to prevent potential breaches proactively. 🔒 Explore further insights in our newest blog post: https://cs.co/6048AKEQq #ZeroTrust #AIAgents #Cybersecurity
