When Trust Becomes the Primary Attack Surface
Course
Saikat Datta, Col. Alok Shankar Pandey, Makarand Kadave and Amit Malhotra examine how AI-driven deception is targeting trust and what security leaders must do to respond.
Adversaries have shifted from exploiting code vulnerabilities to weaponizing human trust through artificial intelligence-generated deception at scale. Deepfakes, synthetic voices and hyper-personalized social engineering are eroding the foundational assumption of identity verification, turning executives, employees and even regulators into unwitting vectors for ransomware, wire fraud and strategic leaks.
This session confronts the reality that trust once the bedrock of business relationships is now the hottest attack surface, amplified by generative AI that creates convincing impersonations faster than defenses can adapt.
In this insightful session, the panel of experts will cover:
- Mapping AI deception attack chains from deepfake phishing to executive impersonation;
- Deploying real-time detection for video, audio and behavioral deepfakes;
- Governance frameworks treating trust signals as critical telemetry alongside traditional threat indicators.
