The Rise of AI Assisted Hacking and How to Fight Back
AI is not a distant threat anymore. It is already being used to hack, and it is getting frighteningly good at it.
Tools like FraudGPT, WormGPT, and AI-assisted frameworks such as PentestGPT are giving attackers a massive edge, automating reconnaissance, crafting hyper-personalized phishing messages, generating polymorphic malware, and chaining exploits together faster than most defenses can respond. What used to cost a professional red team $15,000 or more can now be replicated by an AI agent for the price of a lunch. Hadrian
In this session, Dale breaks down exactly how these tools work in the wild, walks through real attack chains they can automate, and shows you the defensive side of the same coin. You will see live demonstrations of AI-powered attacks in action, dissect how recent breaches used AI as the engine, and walk away with practical techniques to detect, disrupt, and repurpose AI-assisted attacks for your own defense.
The arms race is on. Come find out which side you are on.
