In an era where technology’s advancements are both a boon and a bane, the recent incident involving LastPass is a stark reminder of the latter. Hackers, armed with deepfake audio technology, attempted to breach the company’s security by impersonating the CEO1. They targeted an employee using WhatsApp, a platform not typically associated with formal business communication. This sophisticated voice phishing attack was thwarted, thanks to the employee’s vigilance and the company’s robust security protocols2.
