Session: AI-Powered Attacks vs AI-Driven Defenses: Cybersecurity at Machine Speed
In 2025, attackers increasingly leverage generative AI to conduct real-time phishing, deepfake impersonation, and polymorphic malware campaigns. At the same time, defenders are deploying adaptive, AI-driven detection and response mechanisms. The result is a cyber arms race happening at machine speed.This talk explores real examples of AI-enabled attacks, including deepfake fraud incidents and automated supply chain exploits, alongside practical architectures for deploying AI defenses responsibly. We will discuss model governance, bias mitigation, and live telemetry feedback loops for security. Attendees will learn how to architect resilient, adaptive security systems that keep up with AI-enabled threats.
Key Takeaways
- Understand current AI-enabled attack techniques and 2025 incidents
- Design adaptive defense systems using ML pipelines and feedback loops.
- Address model governance and bias challenges in security contexts
- Combine human oversight with AI to reduce response time
- Build security architectures resilient against generative AI attacks
