Language
In English
This presentation drew a standing-room-only crowd at InfoSec in London. Now, you can experience it live.
In this webinar, “AI attacks LIVE: AI-powered attacks generated in real time and what you can do to stop them,” experts from the Acronis Threat Research Unit (TRU) will generate real AI-powered cyberattacks — and demonstrate how MSPs can defend themselves and their clients by deploying AI-enabled response tools.
See for yourself how dark web resources and freely available AI services enable cyberattackers to generate devastating malware and shockingly realistic instant video deepfakes.
Watch to:
- Witness a deepfake video created with AI in minutes while you watch the code run.
- Watch novel malware generated live and see how it can evade signature-based security.
- Fully comprehend the massive threat that criminal use of AI poses right now — and how to defend against it.
- There will also be an expert “ask us anything” Q&A session.
Agenda:

Machines in the mist (deepfakes)
