The Rules of Cybersecurity Have Drastically Changed.
If before an attack required planning, patience, and manual skill, today artificial intelligence has transformed cybercriminals into actors capable of launching automated, massive, and highly sophisticated offensives within seconds.
The inevitable question: Are we prepared to defend ourselves in this new scenario?

From Manual Attacks to AI-Driven Offensives
The use of artificial intelligence in cyberattacks has enabled hackers to:
✔ Generate hyper-specific phishing campaigns in seconds, customizing messages using information extracted from social media.
✔ Automate massive attacks that test thousands of credential combinations per second.
✔ Create self-modifying malware that evades detection by traditional antivirus software.
✔ Produce realistic deepfakes—from audio to video—for political manipulation and financial fraud.
The numbers speak for themselves: Spain is currently the most attacked country by cybercriminals, surpassing the U.S. and Israel, according to the National Intelligence Center (CNI). Between March 2 and 4 alone, more than twenty attacks targeted government websites, including La Moncloa and the Royal Palace (Source: Cadena SER).
Attacks have also escalated in the financial sector. The Lazarus Group, linked to the North Korean regime, stole $300 million in cryptocurrency in a single attack on the ByBit platform—funds that experts say finance their nuclear program (Source: Huffington Post).
The New Cybersecurity Paradigm
Given this reality, traditional defensive strategies are becoming obsolete. It’s not just about protection, but anticipation.
How can we defend ourselves when an attack can unfold in milliseconds?
At Skyonline, we understand this. That’s why we work with advanced technologies including:
- Artificial intelligence applied to real-time threat detection.
- Predictive analytics to anticipate attacks before they happen.
- 24/7 monitoring and response from our SOC, in partnership with PwC.
- Continuous audits and attack simulations to strengthen business resilience.
AI has redefined cybercrime. The key is not to react, but to get ahead. If you want to learn more about how to protect your company in this new era, let’s talk.
