    The Hidden Cost of Deepfakes: How AI Impersonation Disrupts Organizations
    Feb 25 2026

    The AI revolution has arrived, and the primary target isn't your software, it’s your human instincts. In this episode of Absolutely Critical, host Lee Mangold sits down with 25-year cybersecurity veteran James McQuiggan to explore the high-stakes world of AI-driven social engineering.

    They break down the "wake-up call" story of a global organization that lost $25 million to a deepfake video call and discuss how attackers clone a voice with just 10 seconds of audio. James also provides a framework for defense, from implementing family "code words" to leveraging AI in GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) without losing human oversight.

    You’ll learn more about:

    1. The Human Vulnerability: Why attackers prioritize "soft targets" over zero-day exploits.
    2. The $25M Deepfake: Anatomy of a multi-layered impersonation attack.
    3. AI in Governance: Using generative AI to baseline policies and automate audit prep.
    4. Polite Paranoia: Practical strategies to verify identity in a synthetic world.

    This podcast is for: CISOs, GRC professionals, and security leaders responsible for protecting critical infrastructure and human capital against evolving AI-driven threats.
