AI Fraud - The Invisible Threat
Fraud no longer needs access… it needs intelligence.
AI-enabled fraud is changing the way businesses face risk from deepfake approvals to voice-cloned authorisations and AI-driven phishing. What once relied on human manipulation is now automated, adaptive, and almost impossible to detect in real time.
The real risk?
Not just financial loss but control failure, data breaches, and regulatory exposure under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
It’s time to rethink Internal Audit:
✔ Move from periodic checks to continuous monitoring
✔ Use AI-driven risk mapping and anomaly detection
✔ Strengthen identity and approval controls
✔ Build DPDP-compliant data governance frameworks
In the age of AI-driven fraud, Internal Audit is not just a function it’s your first line of intelligent defense.
