A Comprehensive Usage of AI in Prevention of Social Engineering Attack

AI has become a tool for social engineering attackers, enhancing the likelihood of successful attacks. However, as the saying goes, "Diamonds cut diamonds."

We have explored not only traditional forms of social engineering attacks with AI, such as phishing, eavesdropping, shoulder surfing, dumpster diving, piggybacking, and tailgating but also the latest forms of AI-enabled social engineering attacks, known as vishing, baiting, Smishing, Whaling, Quishing and Quid Pro Quo. This research paper also conducted a systematic literature review of AI-based defending techniques like AI Sentry,
