Large language models (LLMs) are used in an increasing number of applications that handle more critical tasks and are granted greater degrees of autonomy. While such agentic applications are powerful and versatile, LLM-based applications remain brittle and vulnerable to LLM-specific security threats.

Join this webinar AI Agents vs. Prompt Injections, Vladislav Tushkanov from Kaspersky AI Research Center will introduce one of these key vulnerabilities, prompt injection. He will examine the most recent and notable cases, such as EchoLeak, where prompt injections in production LLM applications led to significant privacy breaches. Finally, we will implement a demonstration agent to explore how these attacks function under the hood.

Highlights
• a concise overview of the recent cases of attacks on LLMs
• an in-depth look into the underlying mechanics of the attacks
• a Q&A session with the speaker

Additionally, Vladislav will present a newly released Kaspersky online training program on Large Language Model Security. This course covers both the theoretical foundations of how LLMs are trained to resist attacks and why this training may fail, while also providing extensive practical guidance for testing LLM application security and implementing effective safeguards against real-world attacks.

AI Agents vs. Prompt Injections

Quantum technologies are no longer just theory — they’re evolving fast. And while they promise breakthroughs in science, medicine, and technology, they also carry a serious warning: the power of quantum computers could undermine today’s most trusted security systems. Experts believe a fully fault-tolerant quantum computer might appear within the next decade — and when it does, the cybersecurity landscape will never be the same.

Join this webinar The Quantum Threat: Preparing for Next-Generation Cyber Risks as Sergey Lozhkin, Head of Kaspersky’s Global Research & Analysis Team for META and APAC, to explore:

•            The current state of quantum computing: how advanced are quantum technologies today?
•            The key cybersecurity risks of quantum breakthroughs: what threats should we expect?
•            Preparing for the quantum future: what steps can cyber community take today?

Cybercriminals tend to be secretive and act without disclosing their identity. However, when it comes to ransomware negotiations, the victim and the attacker have to “meet” face-to-face. Moreover, by the time the two sides meet to discuss the price, the attackers have already gained control of a company’s data or network – that puts the victim in a weak position.

What is it like to negotiate with someone who is trying hard to get a ransom whilst remaining in the dark? What can you expect from such negotiations? In this webcast, Insights to Ransomware Tactics and Negotiation, Marc Rivero, senior security researcher, GReAT at Kaspersky will observe various tactics used by ransomware groups, explain how the companies are trying to negotiate with these cybercriminals, and what outcome such negotiations may have.

- What Ransomware as a service (RaaS) model is
- What a data leak portal in RaaS terms is
- About ransomware negotiations: stages, means of communication
- What to do if you have been contacted by a ransomware group

Insights to Ransomware Tactics and Negotiation

Join us for an in-depth webinar that redefines how organizations approach threat detection in cybersecurity. Although detection remains the cornerstone of Security Operations Centers (SOCs), the absence of a formalized cybersecurity program often results in inefficiencies and missed opportunities for optimization.

This webinar will guide you through:
• Developing a structured detection engineering program to enhance efficiency (e.g., engineering lifecycle, best practices, the importance of data modeling, and more)
• Building an optimal team structure to manage and operationalize detections effectively.
• Identifying and leveraging key metrics to measure program success and ensure continuous improvement.

Led by Sarim Rafiq Uddin, a security services expert from Kaspersky SOC consulting, this session is ideal for cybersecurity professionals and SOC leaders seeking to elevate their threat detection capabilities. Don't miss this opportunity to transform your approach from ad-hoc processes to a comprehensive, strategic program.

From chaos to control: streamlining detection engineering in Security Operation Centers

As AI systems based on large language models become more powerful and widespread, more cybersecurity challenges emerge. From jailbreaks to indirect prompt injections, they are vulnerable to a wide array of LLM-specific threats. However, all these problems can be boiled down to one single issue: LLMs are probabilistic algorithms that are inherently unreliable, just like any other ML system. Does it mean they cannot be useful? Absolutely not! In this talk, we will discuss the challenges of secure and reliable LLM-based applications and the way to make them safer and more aligned with your business goals.

Unreliable AI: Addressing the Cybersecurity Risks of LLM-Based System

As the world discusses ChatGPT-3 and its impressive capabilities, the business community is concerned about the AI’s potential to change the game for cyber criminals and wreak havoc in the world of defense organizations. Should businesses soon expect a wave of even more advanced cyber-attacks or simply more attacks? Will current cybersecurity solutions be enough? Or will ChatGPT instead provide cybersecurity specialists with more efficient and smarter defensive and threat hunting tools?

In this webinar, Kaspersky experts will discuss how ChatGPT currently influences the cyber threats landscape and cybersecurity in organizations, and contemplate whether this is a real game changer for the industry and, in particular Security Operation Centers (SOCs). The experts will also discuss the potential benefits of using ChatGPT in threat hunting and malware analysis.

In this webcast you will find out:
- If ChatGPT can really influence the threat landscape. Where can cyber criminals use it, and will it be effective?
- Will the emergence of ChatGPT and similar AI language models lead to increased cybersecurity costs?
- If ChatGPT is capable of becoming an autonomous hacking AI-tool
- How can cybersecurity experts employ ChatGPT: a demonstration of a scanner for Indicators of Compromise (IoCs)

The webinar will be conducted by Kaspersky's Vladislav Tushkanov, lead data scientist, Maher Yamout, senior security researcher, and Victor Sergeev, incident response team lead.

ChatGPT - good or evil? AI impact on cybersecurity

In large companies, the sheer volume of information resources makes their attack surface significantly larger, compared to smaller businesses. Numerous factors contribute to this exposure, including networks spread across various locations that are consolidated into a single infrastructure, mergers and acquisitions with companies possessing lower security levels, outdated hardware and software, and more.

The level of preparedness for a potential incident directly impacts the effectiveness of the response and allows you to mitigate the attack’s impact. In this webinar, you will learn how to enhance incident responses for large-scale networks. Konstantin Sapronov, Head of Global Emergency Response Team at Kaspersky, will provide you with the following practical insights on:

• Optimizing incident response processes beyond mere scaling up by increasing personnel and systems involved
• Understanding incident response from a management perspective and why it should be an ongoing, cyclical process
• Exploring key principles for a successful response, emphasizing the significance of not only technical skills but also quality processes and soft skills
• Unveiling the limitations of backups in mitigating the consequences of an incident and discovering effective strategies to address them
