Kaspersky has addressed this with a major update to its Kaspersky SIEM, enhancing efficiency and reducing the time needed to manage a cyber incident. It introduces AI to detect DLL hijacking. Given the 74% spike in APT cases last year, this matters more than ever.

Comments from Ilya Markelov, Head of the Unified Platform Product Line at Kaspersky, were carried out as part of the coverage.

Deepfake technology has evolved into a serious cybersecurity threat in the Philippines. Kaspersky reports that AI-generated content is being misused for fraud, identity theft, and political manipulation. The Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC) has noted a rise in deepfake abuse, particularly from foreign criminal groups. Experts are calling for stronger laws, better detection tools, and public education to combat the growing risk. Comments from Sam Yan, Head of Sales for Asia Emerging Countries at Kaspersky, were carried out as part of the coverage.

What makes deepfakes different from traditional fake content (like edited photos or staged videos) is the realism and automation. Traditional media manipulation is usually manual and time-consuming. Deepfakes can be generated at scale and can mimic facial expressions, lipsyncing, and even voices.
