The world has been plunged into a cyber-security crisis, known as “Black October,” which exposed how vulnerable much of the world’s online infrastructure is. Major security incidents, hacks and flaws across the globe have shown how easily online data stored by governments, companies and individuals can be hacked. “Artificial intelligence is dramatically accelerating the discovery of software weaknesses [and] vulnerabilities and criminals can exploit them before a government or a company can even have enough time to respond,” Scott Schober, CEO of New Jersey-based Berkeley Varitronics Systems, told The Post.
