Hong Kong, March 21, 2025 – The Hong Kong Institute of Bankers (HKIB) 2025 Cybersecurity Solutions Day kicked off on March 20, drawing over 600 executives and experts from financial institutions and cybersecurity domains to explore strategies for bolstering the financial sector’s security posture. NSFOCUS, a global leader in cybersecurity, marked its third consecutive participation in the event, reinforcing its commitment to advancing cybersecurity collaboration in GCR area.
The summit served as both a platform for cutting-edge technology exchanges and a hub for strategic dialogue among industry leaders. NSFOCUS CSO and COO of International Business, Dr. Richard Zhao, joined the panel discussion “The AI Revolution: Mastering the Double-Edged Sword in Cybersecurity”, in which panelists explored the trends surrounding the applications of AI and how the technology can be used to detect, analyse and take action against cyber threats more efficiently. Dr. Zhao emphasized the dual impact of AI on cybersecurity:
- Threat Evolution: AI-powered attacks, such as adversarial machine learning, deepfakes, and supply chain poisoning, are becoming more sophisticated. For instance, Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) recently highlighted LLM application risks, including injection attacks, data/model poisoning, and supply chain vulnerabilities.
- Proactive Defense: Dr. Zhao stressed the need for a comprehensive security framework to counter AI-driven threats, leveraging AI-red teaming and real-time threat intelligence to stay ahead of adversaries.
NSFOCUS has released AI-Scan assessment tool and AI Red-Teaming to help enterprises identify the vulnerabilities in their AI model deployment and shift from reactive compliance to proactive threat anticipation. We aim to provide pivotal tools and services in turning AI into a competitive asset in the secure financial ecosystem.
