Cyber Security Byte: Saturday, July 12th, 2025

Is This Even Us?! 😧

July 12, 2025 • Estimated Reading Time: 7 minutes

Happy Saturday! 😎

The line between real and fake is getting blurrier, and a lot more expensive. Deepfakes have evolved from internet oddities into a serious business risk, with projected damages soaring into the billions.

Now, CIOs are being pulled into the legal spotlight, expected to lead the charge against a threat that’s as deceptive as it is fast-moving. Leaders can’t sit back and just spot fakes; they’re now forced to prove they did everything to prevent being fooled in the first place.

So, how do you protect your organization in a world where even your own CEO’s voice can be faked?

🚨 Get In the Know:

  • Deepfakes are gunning for the C-suite, and legal’s not laughing.

  • Parlez-vous, phishing?

  • An old AI villain gets a shiny new mask.

  • A fast food hiring bot served up more than job applications.

  • HIPAA violations, but make it accidental and wildly expensive..

  • A major banking tech provider sprang a digital leak.
