Voice Assistant Exploitation: A Growing Threat to C-Suite Executives
In today’s digital age, voice assistants have become integral to our daily business. These virtual assistants offer convenience and efficiency, from controlling smart homes to providing information and entertainment. However, as with any technology, voice assistants have vulnerabilities. Cybercriminals have recognised the potential of exploiting voice assistants to target high-profile individuals, including C-Suite executives, for financial gain, reputational damage, and competitive advantage.
Voice assistant exploitation refers to cyberattacks targeting voice-activated virtual assistants, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, or Apple Siri.
