AI vs. AI: A Battle of Algorithms

As cyber threats evolve in sophistication, organizations are turning to AI not just as a target, but as a powerful defense. Venkatesh Subramaniam, CISO at Mindsprint, highlights how AI is being weaponized to fuel identity theft, deepfake scams, and phishing attacks. With emerging technologies like quantum computing and biometric authentication introducing new vulnerabilities, the traditional security perimeter is quickly dissolving—especially in cloud and metaverse environments.

Venkatesh emphasizes that the future of cybersecurity lies in proactive, adaptive frameworks. Approaches like Zero Trust architecture, AI-led threat detection, and decentralized identity models are essential for staying ahead. To innovate confidently in a digital-first world, he advises embedding security at the core of digital transformation initiatives, with continuous control monitoring and governance to ensure resilience.
