Abstract

Bu çalışma, yapay zekânın (YZ) nesnelerin interneti (IoT) ve yönetim bilişim sistemlerini (MIS) hackleme konusunda oluşturabileceği potansiyel tehlikeleri incelemektedir. YZ’nin, geleneksel güvenlik önlemlerini — örneğin, güvenlik duvarları ve antivirüs yazılımlarını — atlatmak için siber suçlular tarafından kullanılma riski ele alınmaktadır. Aynı zamanda, YZ’nin daha gelişmiş güvenlik duvarları ve tehdit tespit araçlarının geliştirilmesi gibi siber güvenliğin güçlendirilmesindeki rolü de araştırılmaktadır. Çalışma, hükümetlerin ve kurumların, YZ destekli sağlam siber savunma yeteneklerinin geliştirilmesine yatırım yapmaları gerektiğini vurgulamaktadır. Türkiye’de, gelişmiş ülkelerdeki en son yeniliklerin yanı sıra, hükümetin YZ işletmelerini desteklemek ve siber güvenlik dahil olmak üzere çeşitli sektörlerde YZ’nin kullanımını teşvik etmek için birçok girişim başlattığı belirtilmiştir. YZ sistemlerinin hacklenmesinden kaynaklanabilecek riskleri azaltmak için düzenleyiciler, kamu kurumları, özel hizmet sağlayıcılar ve girişimcilerin en iyi uygulamaları benimsemeleri ve YZ ile siber güvenlik alanında araştırma ve geliştirmeyi ilerletmek için iş birliği yapmaları gerekmektedir. Potansiyel riskleri ve güvenlik açıklarını belirlemek için YZ sistemlerine yönelik düzenli risk değerlendirmeleri ve denetimler kritik öneme sahiptir. Son olarak, YZ’nin karar verme süreçlerinde şeffaflık sağlanmasının, hesap verebilirlik ve halkın YZ güdümlü teknolojilere olan güvenini artırmak açısından önemli olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışma, anahtar kelime görüntüleri üzerinde YZ araçlarıyla gerçekleştirilen hayali iterasyon tekniklerini kullanarak, geleneksel ve YZ tabanlı çözümleri içeren kapsamlı bir güvenlik yaklaşımına duyulan ihtiyacı vurgulamakta ve Türkiye’deki kilit aktörlere yönelik özel ve ihtiyatlı öneriler sunmayı amaçlamaktadır.

Abstract

The study examines the potential dangers posed by artificial intelligence (AI) in hacking internet of things (IoT) and management information systems (MIS). It highlights the risk of AI being used by cyber criminals to bypass traditional security measures, including firewalls and antivirus software. The study also explores the use of AI in enhancing cybersecurity by developing more advanced firewalls and threat detection tools. It is found that Governments and organizations should invest in the development of robust AI-based cyber defense capabilities to counter the growing threat of AI-enabled hacking. In Turkey, alongside latest innovations in the developed countries, the government has launched several initiatives to support AI businesses and promote its use in various sectors, including cybersecurity. To mitigate the risks posed by hacking of AI systems, regulators, government agencies, private service providers, and entrepreneurs should adopt best practices and collaborate to advance research and development in AI and cybersecurity. Regular risk assessments and evaluations of AI systems are essential to identify potential risks and vulnerabilities. Finally, transparency in AI decision-making processes is found to be important to ensure accountability and public trust in AI-driven technologies. The study using imaginary iteration techniques with AI tools on the keyword images generally highlights the need for a comprehensive approach to security that incorporates both traditional and AI-based solutions and tries to provide specific and prudent suggestions to key actors in Türkiye.
