AI-powered attacks now move at machine speed, compressing days of work into minutes. Attackers using models like Mythos can craft tailored bait, select targets, test effectiveness, and pivot to new hosts before defenders clear the first alert. Traditional runbooks built for human-speed attackers are no longer sufficient.
Zscaler is hosting a free webinar titled “Outpacing Mythos: How to Fight Back Against AI-Powered Attacks.” In one hour, attendees will learn how AI attacks gain entry, what they do inside networks, and why network-based defenses lag behind. The session focuses on practical mechanics rather than theoretical slides, providing three actionable moves: shrink attacker reach by cutting exposed entry points and enforcing least-privilege access; kill lateral movement by dropping network-based trust and allowing only necessary connections; and catch attacks early by planting tripwires that trigger automated containment.
Led by Zscaler’s Olivia Vort, the webinar demonstrates a Zero Trust approach built for machine speed. Attendees will leave with a blueprint to fix priorities, tighten security, and reduce risk without buying additional tools or adding noise to existing queues. Registration is free and space is limited.
