Guarding Against AI-Driven Attacks: The Power of Commvault ® Cloud

Find out more about the growing risks around AI-based attacks and how to minimizes the blast radius of an incident.


Imagine leading security and data protection operations as Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at a global enterprise when a storm of calls and instant messages erupts your morning routine. A relentless AI-driven attack has taken over devices, systems, and networks – threatening your data.

As the field of artificial intelligence continues to advance, there’s a growing concern about the misuse of AI by cybercriminals to execute advanced attacks. AI-based threats have the potential to be more sophisticated, adaptive, and damaging than traditional attacks. To counteract this evolving risk landscape, businesses must adopt a cyber resilience strategy that embraces innovative approaches. Commvault® Cloud, powered by Metallic ® AI, is the cyber resilience platform for protecting your data and delivering business continuity amidst ever-evolving cyber threats. Combat AI-driven attacks with a platform that is purpose-built to enable true, cloud cyber resilience for the hybrid world, delivering the melhor segurança, a mais alta inteligência e a recuperação mais rápida— across cloud, on-prem, and SaaS workloads.

AI-driven Attacks 

 Cybercriminals leverage AI in various ways and explore further enhancements to increase their attack capabilities. For example:

  • Advanced phishing and social engineering
    social permite que agentes mal-intencionados automatizem atividades fraudulentas, como a criação de e-mails de phishing, a geração de contas falsas nas redes sociais, avaliações e comentários, a falsificação de identidade de agentes de atendimento e suporte e a realização de golpes. Conjuntos de dados massivos contendo credenciais roubadas e dados pessoais podem ser analisados em segundos para aprimorar campanhas de phishing e engenharia social.
  • Adaptive malware and botnet generation
    AI-driven malware and botnets that shapeshift during attack stages expose exponential risk to IT and security teams by evolving in real-time to avoid security measures, identify vulnerabilities in target systems, and coordinate attacks more efficiently than human-generated threats. A growing concern in cybersecurity is related to AI-generated malware capable of bypass traditional signature-based defenses.
  • Zero-day exploits and supply chain attacks
    à cadeia de suprimentos: Os agentes mal-intencionados estão ocultando de forma criativa códigos maliciosos e explorações de dia zero dos defensores para ampliar a distribuição do ataque e estender o raio de impacto. Por exemplo, ocultando uma carga maliciosa dentro de um modelo de IA desenvolvido para desempenhar funções legítimas, como a autenticação biométrica. Em outro cenário, os invasores podem manipular a IA para que ela aprenda os algoritmos dos sistemas de detecção de ameaças e evite ser detectada.
  • Credential stuffing and brute-force attacks
    By automating the process of gaining unauthorized access to business accounts and systems through stolen credentials and common password combinations AI speeds up the attack itself. Additionally, machine learning algorithms are utilized to evade security detection systems and AI-driven tools accelerate password cracking by analyzing patterns in leaked password databases.
  • Deepfake attacks
    com deepfakes: vídeos e áudios gerados por IA imitam vozes e rostos conhecidos para manipular pessoas a realizar ações que concedam acesso a dados confidenciais, sistemas e fundos. A tecnologia por trás dos deepfakes cria áudios e imagens convincentes com um mínimo de informações coletadas nas redes sociais ou em outras plataformas públicas.

A IA tem o poder de ampliar o impacto e a complexidade dos ataques cibernéticos, aumentando os danos potenciais e os riscos aos seus ativos de dados. A Commvault ajuda você a lidar com a incerteza, combinando tecnologia de ponta em proteção de dados com medidas robustas de segurança cibernética, em conformidade com os marcos regulatórios, para investir em mecanismos adequados de resiliência cibernética e detecção que mantenham seus dados protegidos.

Spotting Threats Early 

ThreatWise, our cyber deception service integrated in the Commvault Cloud that layer’s defenses along the path to your data, shielding it from AI-driven attacks, and surfacing threat actors that are targeting the most valuable assets in production – your data. This early warning layer enables your organization to adopt a cyber resilience strategy defending your data against tomorrows threat actors:

  • Limit the blast radius of an incident and divert the threat sooner – before it’s time to recover. ThreatWise alerts key business stakeholders upon first touch while simultaneously luring attackers in and away from actual critical assets, forcing them to waste resources.
  • Identifique o invasor e obtenha informações sobre as táticas, técnicas e procedimentos utilizados ao longo de toda a cadeia de ataque. Ao revelar a origem do ataque orientado por IA, é possível corrigir os sintomas e a causa do mesmo para impedir que a situação se agrave.
  • Delay attacks by confusing and misleading attackers’ algorithms. ThreatWise feeds AI-driven threats fake tokens leading to deceptive data that is making it harder to automate and execute attacks while wasting threat actors’ time.
  • ThreatWise detection is highly accurate, because it’s not reliant on signatures to identify malicious activity, spotting zero-day attacks, shape shifting malware, and silent threats across workloads and data estates.
  • Maximize seu tempo de resposta automatizando a notificação das principais partes interessadas em toda a empresa e facilite a coordenação da Recovery para limitar o impacto.
