Identity Crisis in the Digital Age: Using Science-Based Biometrics to Combat Malicious Generative AI

The potential applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are immense. AI aids us in everything from early cancer diagnoses to alleviating public administrative bureaucracy to making our working lives more productive. However, generative AI is also used for illicit purposes. It is being used to impersonate individuals and to create content to spread disinformation online. It is increasingly used to leverage identity fraud schemes.

Identity fraud can be the inflection point for a domino effect of other crimes committed. Once a threat actor infiltrates a system using a spoofed or synthetic identity, funds gained can be laundered and funneled into other illicit activities, such as narcotics trafficking, terrorist financing, and even human trafficking. Likewise, personally identifiable information (PII) obtained through identity fraud-related data breaches can be sold over the dark web and used to support new identity fraud schemes.

This report focuses on the criminal side of generative AI and advises on the technology and processes needed to combat it. Download it below to read more.
