Project Description
Secure Mind HUB: What is it all about? As we continue to evolve alongside AI, we often underestimate its capabilities. The presence of large language models and the emergence of unethical behavior patterns have become fertile ground for cybercriminals and scammers worldwide. The inevitable truth is that more sophisticated scams will soon target hard working Australians.
Secure Mind HUB serves as an educational haven, catering to both beginners and advanced IT experts. Our vision would be collaborate closely with government bodies, such as the ACCC(Australian Competition & Consumer Commission) and the ACSC(Australian Cyber Security Centre) Working along side law enforcement and Scamwatch.
Our approach leverages the prowess of AI and connecting in with current GOV bodies via API, enabling our platform to seamlessly integrate with a scam database. This resource intuitively informs users about the latest emerging scams while offering tailored education to safeguard their devices.
When we examine recent data from the ATO Scam website, we uncover a staggering 1,793 reports of impersonation scams received in June 2023. Remarkably, this reflects a 9.35% decrease in the past month alone.
In light of such statistics, how can we empower everyday users engaging with the internet, telecommunications, and even instances of physical security barriers and social engineering? Navigating the dynamic realm of cyber infrastructure and the surge in zero-day vulnerabilities presents an undeniable challenge.
The crux of the matter lies in education ones self a potent tool for enhancing one's cyber posture. By implementing appropriate measures, devising contingency plans, and employing effective mitigation strategies, we can stride confidently into the future.
The Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) presently offers an alert system on their website to stay updated about online threats. Their most recent alert, dated August 10th, 2023, reveals that Microsoft has released patches addressing a staggering 87 vulnerabilities. Astonishingly, 6 of these are classified as critical for remote execution. This raises questions about whether malicious actors are using AI in unethical ways.
