AI-driven cyberwarfare is no longer a future concern—it’s already here. As highlighted in Anthropic’s GTG-1002 report, autonomous, agentic AI systems are already capable of executing cyber operations at machine speed and massive scale—outpacing defenses designed for human adversaries.

In this webinar, we’ll unpack what GTG-1002 reveals about the future of cyber conflict and explore how defenders must respond when machines attack machines. You’ll learn how reasoning, game-theoretic defenders powered by AI-driven deception can mislead, disrupt, and neutralize autonomous attackers in real time. You will also see a live demonstration of what “bot-on-bot” defense looks like.
