Session

Adversarial uses of AI: a voyage along vibe coded kill chains

We’ll look at three aspects of adversarial use of AI in this talk:

  1. AI use along the kill chain: the changing economics of cyberthreats. In this section, we will take an interactive journey along the cyber kill chain to explore how AI adoption increases actor speed and sophistication, and which security controls are best suited to prevent those threats.
  2. Lessons from the frontlines: how state-backed threat actors leverage AI every day. We will share concrete observations of how sophisticated threat actors leverage AI, including examples of self-generating malware.
  3. Threats from AI adoption: how poorly planned adoption or excessive agency can create risks for companies and public institutions. We will discuss concrete examples of agents „going rogue” and which controls could have stopped them.
