Data Generation and Cybersecurity: A Major Opportunity or the Next Nightmare?

Summary:

The unprecedented surge in data generation in the digital era offers vast potential for innovation while simultaneously introducing complex security risks. As data becomes a foundational asset for governments, enterprises, and individuals alike, safeguarding its integrity and confidentiality has emerged as a paramount concern. This study undertakes a preliminary exploration of the evolving nexus between Generative AI, Information Disorder, and Cybersecurity, aiming to map the dynamic interactions and reciprocal influences among these domains. Moreover, it seeks to propose a conceptual framework for assessing these interdependencies through a set of indicative metrics, offering a foundation for future empirical evaluation and strategic response.
