As artificial intelligence rapidly transforms the global technological landscape, traditional cybersecurity paradigms are being fundamentally redefined. The seminar explored how AI is reshaping the threat landscape and discussed modern strategies for AI-driven security architectures, vulnerability management and threat response.

Topics discussed in the seminar:

• Key trends shaping the global threat landscape in 2026, including the increasing sophistication and scale of AI-enabled cyber threats.
• Defensive gaps across Latin American industries, including Internet exposure, EDR blind spots, weak MFA implementation, and third-party risks.
• The “Mythos effect” on the market and its implications for cybersecurity.
• Project Glasswing demonstration on how AI can transform vulnerability identification and exploitation, enabling organizations to operate faster, at greater scale, and with enhanced capabilities to uncover complex attack chains.
• Emerging AI security risks, including vulnerabilities in AI models, Shadow AI within enterprises, exposure of sensitive data, exploitation of AI-powered applications, and rogue AI agents.
