Featuring Darktrace’s Senior Technical Manager, Maria Fung, and Cloud Solution Architect, Kien Tran.

Cloud Security: Taking Cover with Self-Learning AI

Hacktivism has dominated headlines in 2022. How will it evolve in the future? And what new threats should we be prepared for? Darktrace’s cyber experts will draw on their experience and research to share predictions for 2023. From the future of proactive security, to crypto-jacking and the rise of identity and MFA attacks, what does next year hold?

This webinar will feature Darktrace’s Global Head of Threat Analysis, Toby Lewis, and Director of Enterprise Security APJ, Tony Jarvis.

Darktrace Predictions: What's In Store for 2023?

In January, we predicted a rise in ransomware attacks, supply chain attacks and proactive security. What we did not predict, was that 2022 would be a game-changing year for cybersecurity.

Darktrace’s cyber experts will draw on their predictions for 2022 to share learnings and findings from the year. From cyberwarfare to cybersecurity shortages, to stricter cyber compliance and increased social engineering, what have we learnt from this year and how will this shape the security landscape of the year to come?

Looking back on 2022: The Cyber Landscape in Review

As cyber-attacks get more sophisticated and numerous, and the attack surface widens and becomes more complex, reducing cyber risk has become a top priority for security teams and the boardroom alike. Preventative security today consists of a patchwork of isolated solutions that work in silos, are human and resource-intensive, and often create unnecessary work for IT teams. 
 
Cyber criminals are not slowing down. With social engineering, supply chain attacks, and new vulnerabilities constantly emerging, defenders need an end-to-end solution that continuously analyzes their organization’s risk profile and helps them prioritize where to spend their time. 
 
Join Max Heinemeyer as he discusses how you can stay ahead of attackers and reduce risk through a Cyber AI Loop: an interconnected set of cyber security solutions that autonomously hardens defenses and uplifts human teams.

Getting Ahead of the Attacker: Mitigating Cyber Risk with a Cyber AI Loop

Join Jeff Cornelius, Darktrace’s EVP of Cyber Physical Security, to discover the cyber-threats facing critical infrastructure and how self-learning AI can protect against these attacks.
 
As IT and OT converge and organizations’ attack surfaces expand, unified protection of IT and OT has become critical. Meanwhile threat actors continue to innovate, finding new ways to avoid detection from signature-based detection. Critical infrastructure – which spans from food and energy to transportation and communications – is under attack from nation-state linked cyber-criminal groups, financially motivated threat actors and hacktivists alike.  
 
To defend against these threats, defenders are turning to AI that takes a fundamentally different approach to threat detection and response: learning ‘normal’ for every user and device, with no pre-conceptions of what an attack looks like.

Defending Critical Infrastructure with AI

Organizations continue to be targeted by increasingly sophisticated ransomware. The speed at which these attacks escalate forces security teams to take drastic and heavy-handed action to stop threats — often with broad-ranging and serious implications.

As digital infrastructures become more interconnected, the knock-on effects of ransomware will continue to worsen. It’s time to shift to a proportionate response strategy – stopping the attack, while allowing your business to operate as it should.

Join Brianna Leddy, Darktrace Director of Analysis, as she unpacks the stages of a ransomware attack, step by step, illustrating what impact each one might have on an organization with and without Autonomous Response.

The Stages of a Ransomware Attack: How AI Responds at Every Step

For decades, cyber-attackers have appeared to have the upper hand in an ever-changing and increasingly sophisticated information risk landscape. Some would argue that organized cybercriminals have more effectively leveraged information sharing to their advantage. But what could tip the scales in the other direction?
 
A challenge facing Chief Information Security Officers is how to help senior executives and Boards of Directors understand and visualize the real risks that face their specific organizations. Beyond general vulnerabilities, what would the intent of the attacker be? What paths may they take to cause the most disruption to the business, the most damage to systems, or even the most danger to infrastructure safety?
 
Applying cutting-edge research in attack path modeling led Darktrace to use AI to discover, simulate, and prioritize cyber risk from inside a company. Hear from two top security executives whose teams are testing new technologies in these areas and how this goes far beyond new shiny products to continuously test controls to mitigate real-world risks and finally give defenders the advantage.
