Cyber Frontiers: AI Clones, DevSecOps & Digital Twin Risks

Is Shadow IT already in your organization?

You wouldn’t allow unmanaged devices on your network, so why allow unmanaged AI into your meetings?

Shadow IT is becoming one of the biggest blind spots in cybersecurity.

Employees are adopting AI notetakers without oversight, creating ungoverned data trails that can include confidential conversations and sensitive IP.

Don't wait until it's too late.

This Shadow IT prevention guide from Fellow.ai gives Security and IT leaders a playbook to prevent shadow AI, reduce data exposure, and enforce safe AI adoption, without slowing down innovation.

It includes a checklist, policy templates, and internal comms examples you can use today.

AI Voice Cloning: The Next Frontier of Social Engineering Attacks

Cybercriminals are now using AI voice cloning to impersonate executives, family members, and support agents in highly convincing phishing schemes. These attacks exploit trust and urgency, often bypassing traditional detection tools.

Organizations must train staff to verify requests via multiple channels, deploy voice biometric validation where possible, and educate teams on the signs of audio manipulation. As this tech evolves, awareness is your strongest defense.

Security-as-Code: Automating Governance in the DevOps Pipeline

Embedding security directly into CI/CD pipelines ensures vulnerabilities are caught early and consistently. Security-as-Code practices—like policy-as-code and automated compliance checks—reduce human error and support scalable governance.

Teams using Terraform, GitHub Actions, and Open Policy Agent can bake compliance into infrastructure provisioning. This shift isn’t just technical—it’s cultural, enabling DevOps and security to collaborate more seamlessly.

The Psychology of Password Fatigue and the Rise of Passkeys

End-users are overwhelmed by complex, changing passwords. Enter passkeys—biometric and device-based credentials that eliminate the need to remember strings of characters.

Backed by FIDO2 and already integrated into Apple, Google, and Microsoft ecosystems, passkeys offer both security and convenience. CISOs should pilot adoption internally and prepare for broader rollout as support grows.

Cybersecurity for Non-Tech Teams: Training that Actually Works

Many breaches stem from user error, not tech flaws. Effective security training needs to be continuous, engaging, and scenario-based. Replace annual slide decks with interactive simulations, gamified testing, and just-in-time alerts.

Tools like KnowBe4 and Hoxhunt are making this shift easy. The goal isn’t just compliance—it’s building a security-first culture across every department.

Digital Twins in Infrastructure: A New Attack Surface

.

Digital twins—virtual replicas of physical systems—are transforming manufacturing, transportation, and city infrastructure. But they also introduce new risks: if attackers gain access, they can manipulate operations in real-time.

To secure digital twins, organizations must isolate networks, encrypt telemetry data, and monitor behavioral anomalies. Collaboration between cybersecurity, IoT, and operations teams is now a strategic imperative.

APIs Under Fire: The Growing Threat of Abuse and Data Leaks

APIs drive modern apps—but they’re also a major target. Poorly secured endpoints are responsible for many high-profile data leaks. Common flaws include lack of rate limiting, insecure authentication, and excessive data exposure.

Adopt an API security gateway (like Kong or 42Crunch), implement automated scanning, and enforce least-privilege access. API inventories should be treated like asset inventories—complete, updated, and protected.

Stay sharp. Stay cautious.
