The Problem

AI-generated messages have removed many of the language and presentation errors employees previously used to identify phishing. Attackers increasingly target specific employees, suppliers, invoices, and account-access processes, where one mistaken approval can compromise an organization. Smaller vendors and mid-sized companies often lack consistent procedures for independently verifying high-risk requests.

Potential Solution

Provide a fixed-scope assessment that maps how payment changes, account recovery, credential resets, and sensitive data requests are currently approved. Install callback rules, trusted-contact registers, dual approval, escalation scripts, and channel-switching procedures, then conduct realistic simulations to test adoption. Offer ongoing managed exercises and quarterly procedure updates as attack methods change.

Why Now?

AI is making targeted impersonation faster, cheaper, and more convincing across email and other communication channels. Conventional awareness advice based on spotting awkward messages is becoming less reliable, increasing the value of verification procedures that do not depend on message appearance.

Why Social Engineering Still Works & Why AI Is Making It Worse

You know, and they validated it with me and I looked at it and thought, oh, that's interesting. That's definitely not me. So it's coming in a lot of different formats. But I mean, moving to the more modern times of where we are at the moment. Do you feel that the kind of spray and pray kind of attack? I mean, obviously, it's always going to be there. But let's face it, that kind of methodology where you send out phishing links and what have you. For a while, it got easy to spot them. It's now not harder to spot them. But I think one of the things that worries me the most is how we're getting to start to see some real serious targeted social engineering attacks against organizations.

You know, this is very much my, my wife's realm. so I'll try not to struggle on their toes too much, but yeah, psychology is a huge factor, right? Because you've got, most attacks will happen and leverage social engineering, right? All of the scattered spider stuff that's mostly based on social engineering and compromising people's MFA accounts and whatnot, right? So most of it does come back down to social engineering. And then you have AI powering social engineering emails, and OSINT and stuff, anything that you can, you can leverage to gain some kind of control over another person and their emotions and how they react. That's a huge thing.

What are all the bad things so that we can try to think ahead and figure out where could they go next? What steps might they take? And right now, I hate to say it, but social engineering is an easy target right now. Again, those phishing emails are quick. They're easy. You know, it's a click of a button. And, you know, you send out, you know, millions of them. And if you get one hit, one person that falls for it, that can take down an organization. And unfortunately, you know, we've seen that with, you know, in the news, as well as like our vendors and suppliers also, you know, some of our, you know, smaller ones are also getting targeted. And, you know, on little things like invoices and fraud and things like that, it's all social engineering.
