What’s New with AI and Cybersecurity: Inside the New Era of Ecosystem-Wide Supply Chain Compromise Published by Pearson Join Omar Santos and guest David Bianco for a live deep dive into systemic software supply chain attacks and defenses In recent months, a wave of high-impact attacks exposed systemic weaknesses across trusted ecosystems—from the compromise of Aqua Security’s Trivy scanner to CI/CD supply chain attacks and the hijacking of the Axios npm package, which reaches over 100 million weekly downloads. These incidents signal a broader shift: supply chain attacks are now the preferred model for scalable cybercrime and state aligned operations, exploiting trust, identity, and inherited access rather than isolated vulnerabilities. Join Omar Santos, with special guest -cybersecurity researcher and strategist David Bianco, for a focused exploration of this new era of software supply chain security. Examine modern attack techniques such as GitHub Actions tag hijacking, malicious dependency publishing, and compromised maintainer credentials, and learn the concrete defensive shifts required to respond—including immutable dependency pinning, CI/CD permission segmentation, and credential hardening. You’ll leave with a practical framework for securing software supply chains against the next generation of ecosystem-wide attacks. What you’ll learn and how you can apply it - Learn the latest trends in AI and cybersecurity. - Apply AI-driven tactics for threat detection, automate incident response, and proactively hunt for risks using the latest AI tools. - Assess the security implications of advanced AI, such as coding agents, agentic AI applications, and large language models (LLMs). - Design strategic methodologies for integrating AI into cybersecurity programs. This live event is for you because... - You’re an AI/ML Engineer or Data Scientist who wants to learn the latest trends in AI and cybersecurity. - You’re a Cybersecurity Professional (Analyst, Engineer, Architect, or Consultant) looking to upgrade your skills for the AI-driven
