CIO Catalyst | The rise of autonomous cyber threats: time to be prepared !
While AI is accelerating the speed, scale, and autonomy of cyberattack, cybersecurity strategies are entering a completely new phase. Modern AI-driven cyberattacks are no longer limited to traditional malware delivery. Instead, professional hackers increasingly leverage adversarial AI techniques, polymorphic malware, evasion attacks, training data poisoning, and fileless attacks to bypass traditional antivirus engines. AI-orchestrated cyberattacks can autonomously exploit zero-day vulnerabilities, execute credential dumping, and propagate lateral movement across network traffic at machine speed. 08 October 2026, Brussels area
