Webinar: Fraud and AI in the Public Sector with HMRC

Five things organisations must do differently

8 September | 11am | Online

Artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing the fraud landscape. As fraudsters gain access to increasingly powerful AI tools, public sector organisations face a critical challenge: can institutions adapt quickly enough to keep pace?

While much of the conversation around AI focuses on productivity and innovation, it is also reshaping how fraud is committed, detected and investigated. From AI-generated phishing campaigns and deepfakes to automated intelligence gathering and synthetic identities, the economics of fraud are changing rapidly.

Join Kevin Newe, Assistant Director and Head of Financial Crime Threats at HMRC, for an interactive webinar exploring how AI is transforming fraud risk and the five things public sector organisations must do differently to prepare for the future.
