Behind the Numbers: Guarding against the AI cyber crimewave

In this episode of Behind the Numbers, we discuss how the use of new technologies by criminals is putting businesses at risk.

A recent Europe-wide report found that 40% of chief internal auditors cited artificial intelligence as a top five business-critical risk. So, how can professionals protect themselves and their employers? And what can SMEs with tighter budgets do to combat this threat?

Host Philippa Lamb is joined by Ian Pay, Head of Data Analytics and Tech at ICAEW; Mark Turner, Chief Technology Officer at cyber security specialists Mitigo; and Paul Munson, EU Compliance Lead at workplace software provider Rippling and previously of the Financial Conduct Authority, Serious Fraud Office and HMRC.
