AI amplifies attacks: Hild points to another problem: “AI-powered tools dramatically accelerate these attacks. Criminals can now screen stolen documents for ‘material’ compliance violations within hours of a data breach, faster and more accurately than many companies can audit their own systems.”The SailPoint specialist explains: “They create detailed, legally sound complaints for authorities and set tight deadlines. With new regulations like DORA in the EU and stricter SEC reporting requirements, the arsenal of these extortionists is constantly growing.”Berghoff summarizes: “The question remains which has the less severe consequences for companies: a self-report or an anonymous report to the relevant authority by a group of criminals. Since there is still a great deal of uncertainty surrounding compliance in some areas, threats involving authorities potentially fall on fertile ground.”
