IBM on Future Cybersecurity: Passkeys, Deepfakes, Quantum Computing

“The internet will be a lot safer in five years than it is today, thanks to technological advances that address common problems at scale.” This prediction by Chris Hockings, CTO of IBM Asia Pacific, might seem a bit ambitious given that AI-powered cybercrime is growing at an exponential rate, deepfake technology is enhancing social engineering attacks, and the power of quantum computing is on the horizon. But Hockings spoke with TechRepublic about how he believes…
