Kaspersky

Eugene Kaspersky, the cybersecurity pioneer and founder of Kaspersky Lab, has issued a grave warning about the growing threat of cybercriminals leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to outpace defenders in the digital arena. Kaspersky highlighted that AI is enabling cyber attackers to innovate and collaborate at unprecedented speeds, making it increasingly difficult for traditional security measures to keep up.

Global cybersecurity leader Kaspersky has reported impressive double-digit growth in India for 2024, underscoring the country’s strategic importance within the company’s Asia-Pacific (APAC) expansion plans. As Kaspersky celebrates 25 years of operations in the region, it continues to bolster its presence through enhanced support, an expanded workforce, and cutting-edge technological solutions. The company’s success is attributed to a robust partnership network and an increased focus on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning.

As artificial intelligence accelerates the evolution of cyber threats, cybersecurity visionary Eugene Kaspersky has issued a stark warning: the traditional methods of digital defense are no longer sufficient. Speaking at GITEX Asia 2025, Kaspersky underscored the urgency of reengineering our digital systems to be cyber immune by design—not merely secure. With cybercriminals exploiting AI to automate and scale attacks, the threat landscape is growing increasingly complex.
