Large Language Models are transforming business operations, software development, and cybersecurity workflows at speed. But as AI-powered applications become embedded in enterprise environments, new attack surfaces are emerging that most security teams are not yet equipped to defend against. Prompt injection, data poisoning, model manipulation, and supply chain attacks are no longer theoretical. They are active threats.

On August 13, Céline Blandin, Cybersecurity Professional and AI Security Researcher, cuts through the complexity to show exactly how LLM-based systems are attacked, where the vulnerabilities exist across the AI life cycle, and the frameworks used to understand and assess these risks.

Malware has evolved far beyond traditional viruses. Modern campaigns leverage ransomware, fileless malware, spyware, trojans, worms, rootkits, botnets, and infostealers to establish persistence, evade detection, steal credentials, and disrupt critical operations. Understanding how these threats gain entry, execute, and spread is fundamental to effective cyber defense.

The ability to distinguish malware families, recognize early indicators of compromise, and apply layered prevention strategies enables security professionals to reduce dwell time and respond before an intrusion escalates into a business-impacting incident.

As enterprises embed AI across business operations, security functions, and decision-making systems, the risks move faster, operate differently, and carry consequences that reach well beyond IT. The pressure to enable AI-driven innovation while maintaining control, accountability, and regulatory alignment has never been greater.

On August 11, Dewayne Hart, cybersecurity strategist, author, and founder of SEMAIS, returns for Session 2 of the 3-part C|CISO webinar series with a leadership-focused framework for governing enterprise AI in the real world, not just on paper.

The attack surface is expanding beyond traditional infrastructure. APIs exchange critical data, AI agents interact with enterprise tools, and autonomous systems execute actions across connected environments.

For defenders, this elevates the importance of identity controls, authorization, runtime visibility, ex*****on boundaries, and continuous validation across every machine-to-machine interaction.

Build the security expertise required for this new attack surface.
