SECURING AGAINST THE NEW ERA OF AI AUTONOMOUS THREATS

DNV Webinar

In cybersecurity, speed has always been a decisive advantage. Today, however, the rise of AI-powered attack tools is dramatically shifting the balance. Threat actors can increasingly automate reconnaissance, decision-making and attack execution, enabling them to operate at a scale and pace that traditional defensive approaches struggle to match.

DATE: 08 September 2026 
VENUE:  Virtual
FORMAT: Webinar 
COST: Free 

Join DNV Cyber's Tom Van de Wiele, Offensive R&D Lead, for an insightful webinar exploring how autonomous AI-driven threats are reshaping cyber risk and what organisations can do to prepare.

As organisations continue to adopt AI technologies, they must also prepare for a new generation of threats. Autonomous AI agents are lowering the barrier to advanced attacks, making sophisticated offensive capabilities more accessible while increasing pressure on already stretched security teams. The result is a growing gap between how quickly attackers can act and how quickly defenders can respond.

In this webinar, Tom Van de Wiele, Offensive R&D Lead at DNV Cyber, separates reality from hype and explores how AI is reshaping both offensive and defensive cybersecurity strategies. Through practical examples and real-world insights, he discusses the implications for security operations, exposure management, organisational resilience and the future cybersecurity workforce.

Key takeaways:

◼︎ Understand how autonomous AI agents are changing the cyber threat landscape and accelerating attack execution.
◼︎ Gain insight into the emerging risks AI introduces for organisations across industries.
◼︎ Learn where automation can strengthen cyber defence and where it may introduce new challenges.
◼︎ Explore how AI-driven threats will impact security strategy, exposure management and cyber resilience planning.
◼︎ Understand the skills, capabilities and organisational changes needed to prepare for the next generation of cyber threats.
