The adoption of preventive measures by users, together with an adequate regulatory framework at both national and international levels, represents the key to effectively combating the growing threat of robocalls with synthetic voices and protecting the cybersecurity of citizens. **To join the [WhatsApp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/B9agWqDJsZFCGO73LZBvI2) community and stay updated at all times, go from your mobile device [here](https://chat.whatsapp.com/B9agWqDJsZFCGO73LZBvI2).** [Join the digiTiamo community ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/B9agWqDJsZFCGO73LZBvI2) Share this article [WhatsApp](https://wa.me/?text=Robocalls%20with%20synthetic%20voices%3A%20a%20growing%20threat%20to%20cybersecurity%20-%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lucacarbone.ch%2Fen%2Feducation%2Frobocall-voci-sintetiche-minaccia-in-crescita-sicurezza-informatica)Copy link ### Keep reading [All articles](/en/blog)[AI for Business](/en/ai-per-aziende)[Services](/en/services)[Contact](/en/contact) ## Related Articles [ ![An AI event for seniors coming to Lugano on Sept 11: a two-hour session dedicated to the elderly](https://wdulmpxygmloyswixhxp.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/article-images/1788650087901-q3y2gahwn.png) Educazione #### An AI event for seniors coming to Lugano on Sept 11: a two-hour session dedicated to the elderly ](/en/education/ai-terzaeta)[ ![RecallSwiss: the Confederation's app that alerts you!!](https://wdulmpxygmloyswixhxp.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/article-images/1775948285519-zxe6w3a2n.jpg) Educazione #### RecallSwiss: the Confederation's app that alerts you!! ](/en/education/recallswiss-the-swiss-confederation-s-app-that-alerts-you)[ ![Gemini and NanoBanana, from text to image in a few seconds](https://wdulmpxygmloyswixhxp.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/article-images/1773531065584-4gsodcbqc.JPG) Educazione #### Gemini and NanoBanana, from text to image in a few seconds ](/en/education/gemini-and-nanobanana-from-phrase-to-image-in-seconds)[ ![Instant payments?
