The Generative AI-Cybersecurity: A Review of Offensive & Defensive Applications, Strategic Implications, and Future Paradigms
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: These reviews the harmful uses of GenAI, describing how it increases dangers through rapid exploit, creation, mysterious polymorphic malware and automated phishing attempts Meanwhile, it examines the new protective applications where GenAI enhances digital barriers through proactive threat identification, incident response automation, and secure code creation. The study then moves to the strategic level, looking at the important implications for cyberwarfare, including the growing asymmetric warfare tactics that endanger critical civilian systems and the escalating weapons war fueled by AI. The issue of safeguarding AI models, the urgent requirement for responsive regulation, and future paradigms impacted by self-governing agentic AI are all covered in the paper's conclusion. The primary conclusion is that operating in the GenAI age necessitates a co-evolutionary defensive approach that emphasizes AI safety measures to reduce AI risks while also using AI as a safeguard.
