Event description

AI is no longer just a business tool. It is in the hands of attackers too.

In this webinar, Cyberfort and Cybit will walk you through how AI is being used to design, adapt, and scale ransomware campaigns, and what this means for your data protection strategy. You will see how quickly an AI-driven attack can move, where most organisations are blind to risk, and what practical steps you can take to strengthen your defences.

Jake Upfield and Rob Vann will combine real-world insight with a live walkthrough of how AI models can be applied inside ransomware systems, giving you a rare view into the attacker mindset.
