Hackers can now steal passwords over Zoom using the help of AI. A new study reveals that artificial intelligence can steal passwords with a 93% accuracy rate using keystroke sounds recorded over Zoom. The accuracy rate increased when researchers recorded keystroke sounds with an iphone 13 mini. The study also indicates that passwords with full words may be at a greater risk of being compromised.
