One of the most pressing issues highlighted at the summit was how supply chain attacks could potentially damage critical infrastructure such as hospitals, banks, airlines and more. This was highlighted when a faulty software update from Crowdstrike, a US-based cybersecurity company, caused a reboot death spiral, leading to the blue screen of death for over 8.5 million Windows machines worldwide and causing an unprecedented amount of financial damage. “Potential avenues for a supply chain attack on machine learning models would be to manipulate training data to introduce biases and vulnerabilities into the model or to modify AI models with altered versions so that they produce incorrect results. Given that AI is here to stay, such attacks can have an unprecedented impact similar to what we recently experienced due to faulty software or a backdoor issue in SSH that was fortunately averted earlier this year,” explains Vitaly Kamluk, GReAT cybersecurity expert at Kaspersky.
