contents The rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have presented new opportunities for enhancing efficiency and economic competitiveness across various industries, espcially in banking. Machine learning (ML), as a subset of artificial intelligence, enables systems to adapt and learn from vast datasets, revolutionizing decision-making processes, fraud detection, and customer service automation. However, these innovations also introduce new challenges, particularly in the realm of cybersecurity. Adversarial attacks, such as data poisoning and evasion attacks, represent critical threats to machine learning models, exploiting vulnerabilities to manipulate outcomes or compromise sensitive information. Furthermore, this study highlights the dual-use nature of AI tools, which can be used by malicious users. To address these challenges, the paper emphasizes the importance of developing machine learning models with key characteristics such as security, trust, resilience and robustness. These features are essential to mitigating risks and ensuring the secure deployment of AI technologies in banking sectors, where the protection of financial data is paramount. The findings underscore the urgent need for enhanced cybersecurity frameworks and continuous improvements in defensive mechanisms. By exploring both opportunities and risks, this paper aims to guide the responsible integration of AI in the banking sector, paving the way for innovation while safeguarding against emerging threats.
