The Hype Cycle is Over: GenAI is Now Part of Your Organization
Ever since ChatGPT made GenAI explode in the mainstream, people are still talking about - and talking to - AI chatbots.
From developers to marketers, knowledge workers increasingly rely on conversations with their favorite GenAI tools to answer critical questions and speed up projects. Those conversations are driving real progress and unprecedented efficiency gains across virtually every industry.
But each of them is also an opportunity for innovative cyber criminals. And the threats (the ones we know about, and the ones we have yet to discover) are dire. Gartner has already predicted one death by Chatbot by 2027.

Welcome to the Wild West of GenAI Chatbots
GenAI Chatbots should be a win-win for employees and businesses alike. And it can be, but there
are serious dangers to be aware of
When data leaks, privacy violations, or other attacks occur due to vulnerabilities in GenAI chatbots, organizations face unprecedented risks of falling victim to malicious threat actors or legal liability.
Data privacy in the age of GenAI Chatbots
To be effective, chatbots have to collect, process and store large amounts of data - some of it personal. For cyber attackers, this data represents a reservoir of information to extract and exploit.
To do this, attackers can target a chatbot’s actual database, either through an attack or by gaining unauthorized access. These risks are compounded by the fact that chatbots can and often do share data with third parties, creating even more exposure to risk.
In some cases, the risk comes from inside an organization itself: research suggests that around 6% of employees have shared confidential information with chatbots.
All of this makes it imperative to secure GenAI chatbots - as well as the software supply chain - against a growing list of risks.
Navigating new risks and regulations
As the risks associated with GenAI chatbots multiply, governments and regulatory bodies are stepping in with new tools to protect businesses and consumers.
While this proactive approach bodes well for the future, it also places new burdens on organizations, requiring them to stay compliant with evolving regulations like the EU AI Act and existing legislation such as GDPR.
Compliance and Regulatory Risks
Failure to comply with cybersecurity regulations when deploying AI solutions can have serious repercussions for organizations. These potential impacts include:
- Regulatory penalties, either through individual litigation or fines.
- Loss of customer trust, which is notoriously difficult to regain.
- Competitive disadvantages, as customers may gravitate toward competitors perceived to take security more seriously.
