How AI has complicated enterprise mobile security

In this episode of Safe Mode, Jim Dolce, CEO of Lookout, reveals that 40% of phishing attacks now target mobile devices—yet CISOs are drastically underspending on mobile security compared to email protection. Jim demonstrates how AI-powered attacks have become devastatingly effective, showing how his team created a voice-cloning impersonation attack in 15 minutes that fooled over half their employees into surrendering credentials, bypassing even multi-factor authentication. He explains why credential theft is now the #1 attack vector, costing $4-5 million per breach, and how modern smishing attacks use scraped social media data to craft hyper-personalized messages that are nearly impossible for humans to detect. Jim's urgent message: enterprises must protect mobile devices with the same rigor as email systems, using AI-powered defenses to combat AI-powered threats.
