Artificial intelligence and cybercrime: implications for individuals and the healthcare sector

Posted on November 13, 2024 by Dissent

Introduction:

The malicious use of artificial intelligence has created new types of security threat for both individuals and the healthcare sector. Although artificial intelligence is a fundamental technology of our age, it has enabled the creation of new types of large-scale cyberthreat, and artificial intelligence-based cybercrime has grown rapidly worldwide. Medical data are a prime target for cybercriminals, given the high value of stolen data. Of further concern to psychiatry is that both patients with mental illness and mental health data may be especially vulnerable to artificial intelligence-based security threats. This editorial will discuss the common types of artificial intelligence-based cyberthreat faced by both individuals and the healthcare sector and address potential ways to mitigate risks, including the use of artificial intelligence predictive tools.
