Session description

Speaker: Manuel Nedbal

AI agents are changing the rules of cybersecurity. They can autonomously identify vulnerabilities, analyze attack paths, and combine complex attack steps at a speed that increasingly challenges traditional security approaches. At the same time, organizations face thousands of known vulnerabilities while operating systems that cannot be patched quickly or, in some cases, at all.

This shifts the focus: "from simply identifying vulnerabilities to detecting actual attacks and abnormal behavior."

This session explores why traditional vulnerability and attack-surface scanning alone will not be sufficient for the next generation of cyberattacks. What becomes critical is the ability to continuously understand communication and behavior across the infrast ...
