Manoel Colombani of SoSafe examines AI-enhanced social engineering attacks, multi-channel exploitation tactics, and the alarming trend of cybercriminals targeting personal networks to access organizational systems.
Digital threats are at an all-time high, with social engineering becoming cybercriminals' preferred tool. Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing cybercrime, driving a significant increase in attacks based on social manipulation. In this context, human psychology must be at the center of risk management, because people are not the problem, but the key to building a stronger and more positive security culture.
In this session, the panel of experts will cover:
- The alarming rise of AI-enhanced social engineering attacks that combine unprecedented scale with hyper-personalization;
- How attackers are expanding beyond email to execute sophisticated multi-channel attacks that leverage social media, SMS and phone calls for both reconnaissance and exploitation;
- The "privatization of cybercrime" trend where attackers target personal networks (family members, colleagues) to gain access to organizational systems.
