Keynote | The Augmented Era: Disrupt or be Disrupted

Keynote | The Augmented Era: Disrupt or be Disrupted 🎙️ Pedram Amini, Chief Scientist at OPSWAT 📍 Presented at SANS Hack & Defend Summit 2025 We're living through the most fundamental shift in cybersecurity since the advent of the Internet itself. AI isn't replacing security practitioners (yet), but it's creating augmented adversaries who operate at unprecedented scale. A single attacker can now use AI to force multiply themself as if they were an entire team. Nation-state actors are leveraging AI to maintain fraudulent positions at Fortune 500 companies. Non-technical criminals are deploying sophisticated ransomware. The question isn't whether AI will disrupt security, it's whether you'll be the disruptor or the disrupted. In this keynote, Pedram Amini, who has spent half his career breaking systems and the other half defending them, explores some uncomfortable truths about this augmented future. Drawing from recent events showing how real-world attackers are weaponizing AI, breakthrough achievements like automations reaching #1 on HackerOne, and his own experience leveraging AI in daily operations. Pedram will show you why mastering augmentation isn't optional, it's crucial to survival. Whether you're red team, blue team, or somewhere in between, this keynote provides insights for navigating the augmented era. You'll leave with strategies for leveraging AI without losing the creativity and lateral-thinking that makes a real human security professional irreplaceable. Most importantly, you'll understand why the future belongs to those who augment and why those who don't will become obsolete.
