In the Cyber Trenches: War Stories from 180,000 pentests

Show session details

To defeat the adversary, we must move beyond tracking their tools – we must understand their mind.

The traditional approach to cyber security has focused relentlessly on the technical what (malware signatures, TTPs) and the macro why (geopolitical tension, economic drivers).

However, the next decisive frontier in intelligence and defence requires a pivot to the who: the personality dynamics that fuel cyber threat actor groups and using autonomous tools to follow in their footsteps.

Panel Discussion

Join the discussion: NIS2 – more security, or simply more bureaucracy?

The future of SOCs and the role of AI in effective detection and response

The Power of Transparency: Identifying and Reducing Attack Surfaces

Show session details

Stop shadow IT: exposure management reveals hidden systems and lowers risk.

End the silos: a central approach effectively reduces attack surfaces.

Automated security identifies threats early and enables proactive countermeasures.

The Hugging Face Hack as a Commercial Solution

Resilience 2.0 – ready for a real incident?

Show session details

Attackers now move in seconds. Recovery still takes weeks. AI widens this gap from both sides. This session shows how companies build resilience across data, identities and AI agents.

- Why recovery speed now determines the cost of an incident, rather than prevention

- Which questions must be answered in advance so recovery can begin immediately when needed

- Why identity is the central target of attacks and why you must not have to choose between "clean" and "up to date"

- Why agentic AI is the next gap in resilience: seeing what agents do, controlling what they are allowed to do, and undoing what goes wrong

Self-attacking AI: still a “myth”?

Show session details

This session examines how recent supply chain attacks (Shai-Hulud, Trivy, LiteLLM) have set a new standard in credential-based exploitation.

These high-profile incidents show a recurring pattern: initial supply-chain compromise followed by weaponized secret scanning for persistence and cross-platform lateral movement.

When Email Attacks Look Like Real Communication – Lessons from EvilTokens, VENOM & Co.

Show session details

How AI-assisted defense detects sophisticated attacks and exposes attacker intent.

Insights from the current threat landscape: how attackers deliberately exploit trust, identities and context – and why classic defenses based on IOC/IOA (Indicator of Compromise/Attack) miss these attacks.
