Zero Trust in An AI World – Moving From Talk to Action

The Deep and Dark Web is a crowd-sourced, regulated economic system where one's reputation is held in the same high regard as the money that is used to buy the abundant goods and services.

This ecosystem, by design, is murky, has its own abundant culture and subcultures and where almost everything is permitted; where criminals buy and sell their goods; where governments conduct influence campaigns, where intelligence officers conduct espionage; and where the very best and worst of humanity gather to exchange ideas. 

Cyber intelligence and security professionals need to become proficient in the nuances of this ecosystem to put perceived threats emanating from Dark Web sources within the appropriate context. During this discussion, we will define what the Dark Web is, what it is not, and who frequents this space and how it relates to the struggle around attribution.

In this session, you will have the opportunity to: 
• Learn about the origins of and motivations behind cyber crime perpetuated in deep and dark web (DDW) forums and marketplaces.
• Gain an understanding of the demands to which DDW actors are beholden, including the complicated and murky relationships that exist that make attribution a real struggle.
• Observe how threat actors are utilising technology such as AI to perpetuate cyber crime, including extortion, to achieve maximum profit.

AI is reshaping how businesses build and innovate, but it also introduces new risks: data exposure, Shadow AI, pipeline misconfigurations, and insecure model usage. Security teams are now tasked with protecting sensitive data across sprawling AI workloads while ensuring AI adoption stays safe and compliant.

That’s where the combination of Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) and AI Security comes in. Together, they provide the visibility and control organizations need to protect data flowing into, through, and out of AI systems. DSPM ensures sensitive data is discovered, classified, and governed, while AI security removes attack paths, secures pipelines, and uncovers hidden AI usage. By uniting these approaches, companies can innovate with AI at speed, with security embedded at every step.

Key Takeaways: 

• AI adoption creates new risks like data exposure, Shadow AI, and misconfigurations
• DSPM secures sensitive data across the AI pipeline
• AI security + DSPM together enable safe, confident AI innovation.

Securing the AI Era: Why DSPM and AI Security Are Better Together

In an era defined by geopolitical instability, rapid technological advancement, and increasingly complex global supply chains, cybersecurity threats are evolving faster than ever. This webinar explores the intersection of current affairs and cyber risk, highlighting how global events from conflicts and climate disasters to AI-driven scams are reshaping the threat landscape be and business operations.

In this session ISF senior analysts, Mark Ward and Francesca Williamson, will be exploring and providing guidance on:  
• The impact of global events and rising geopolitical tensions is having on cybersecurity
• Emerging AI related threats such as AI-generated attacks and deepfakes
• How malicious actors are exploiting current global affairs to attack vulnerable supply chains.

From Geopolitics to Deepfakes: Navigating threats in a turbulent world

Hybrid and multi-cloud architectures offer flexibility and scalability, but they also introduce challenges in maintaining consistent security across diverse platforms. Traditional approaches often struggle to deliver unified visibility and control across both on-premises infrastructure and cloud environments. 

In this session, Simon Cross, Enterprise Security Architect at Infoblox, will explore how organisations can evolve defence-in-depth by adding an extra layer of pre-emptive controls. By focusing on early asset identification and understanding attacker infrastructure, organisations can enforce safeguards that block threats before they reach critical systems. Foundational network services, such as DNS, provide value throughout the layers of defence-in-depth: enabling visibility, supporting consistent policy enforcement, and underpinning the new pre-emptive layer that disrupts adversaries earlier in the kill chain.

Key takeaways:
• Approaches to simplify asset discovery and policy enforcement across hybrid environments
• How foundational network services deliver value across layers of the defence-in-depth model
• Ways to apply pre-emptive controls and threat intelligence to stop attacks sooner
