Hackers Don’t Break In Anymore, Because AI Helps Them Blend In
Tuesday, 25 August, 2026
Hackers are using AI, social engineering, and legitimate business tools to make cyberattacks look like normal work. Instead of breaking through security systems, they study how employees communicate, impersonate trusted vendors, manipulate email conversations, and exploit everyday business processes. Piotrek Wojtyla of Abnormal Security joins Today in Tech to explain how attackers are improving phishing and business email compromise attacks with AI. He discusses fake invoices, vendor impersonation, compromised email accounts, shared inbox vulnerabilities, prompt injection, and the risks created when companies give AI agents access to sensitive workflows. The episode also examines why traditional security awareness training may no longer be enough, how cognitive overload makes employees more vulnerable, and what organizations can do to protect workers without expecting them to identify every sophisticated attack. Can companies continue trusting email, vendors, and automated systems when cyberattacks look almost identical to legitimate business requests? Subscribe to Today in Tech for weekly conversations about cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, enterprise technology, and the trends changing how we work.
