In the quickly evolving field of cybersecurity, generative AI and voice cloning represent the next step in the sophistication of social engineering attacks. However, sifting through generative AI tools during a social engineering engagement can cost precious time. This talk will explore how these technologies are being used by red teams and threat actors to craft compelling and deceptive phishing lures. The speakers will discuss the underlying psychological tactics that make these approaches effective and compare various generative AI solutions. Attendees will leave this presentation with an understanding of how to integrate voice cloning into their social engineering toolkit and enhance the realism and success rate of their penetration tests.
