Hey folks! Join us for a free one-hour training session with Antisyphon instructors and AI security researchers Derek Banks and Brian Fehrman on attacking and defending AI systems. Wednesday, June 4th - 12:00 PM EDT Register: events.zoom.us/ev/AokxHboDBGQ…
What could an attacker do with access to your AI assistant? Bronwen Aker joined us for a free one-hour Black Hills Information Security webcast to give us some on security lessons! We got a hands-on look at how Microsoft Copilot works in business settings, as Bronwen showed how it accesses data and helps with tasks like drafting emails or finding files, which can be useful or risky depending on permissions and context! Watch it for FREE here - youtube.com/live/-lwe9yc9f…
You’ve received a “true positive” security alert for a Windows or Linux endpoint. This is not a drill! Your environment is under attack! This is war and you need to take rapid, decisive steps to determine: Has the endpoint been compromised? Have other systems been impacted? What actions should come next? Patterson Cake will take you through live demonstrations & hands-on labs to help you get through similar IR scenarios with confidence in our next Pay-What-You-Can Workshop: Rapid Endpoint Investigations, live THIS FRIDAY, June 6th. Register here: antisyphontraining.com/course/worksho…
