The use of artificial intelligence and information guards, constant technological update and staff training constitute some of the primary elements when preventing and facing threats in cybersecurity, in an increasingly changing world reality .
This is stated by the Association of Multiple Banks of the Dominican Republic (ABA) by raising some recommendations in order to contribute to the best practices in the management of information technologies in the financial sector and other productive areas, as part of its Permanent guidance platform I sail safely.
He coincided with the World Economic Forum in his recent report on this area, where he said that “in a complex cyberspace characterized by geopolitical uncertainties, a growing cyber inequality and sophisticated cyber threats, leaders must adopt a mentality that prioritizes security”.
This report reveals that 66% of organizations expect the AI to have the most significant impact on cybersecurity in next year, but only 37% reports to have processes implemented to evaluate the safety of AI tools before its implementation, He remembered ABA.
Given this, the ABA recommends, in its www.yonavegoseguro.com.do portal to use the alternatives offered by AI to enhance the safety of companies, which would reduce incident response times, detect cyber -cyber threats before and more precisely , automate the response to certain known cyber -cybermen, free security professionals to focus on more proactive tasks and improve the security position.
He stressed that the ransomware or data kidnapping is one of the main cyberdelites and takes as reference the State of Ransomware 2024 of the Sophos company, where it is revealed that 59% of the organizations covered by the study were attacked with this modality in the last year.
It emphasizes that, although the general rates of attacks decreased with respect to 2023, the impact on the victims worsened and, before this, Sofos recommends identifying vulnerabilities, preventing errors in the configuration of security tools.
