Seven Security Organisations Warn of AI-Powered Attacks: Cyemptive Shows How to Stay Ahead of Attackers
Rob Pike Attacks His Own Systems Live at Cybersec Netherlands.
Recently, seven Dutch security organisations – the NCTV, NCSC, AIVD, MIVD, Public Prosecution Service, CIO Rijk and the Police – issued a joint warning to senior decision-makers: AI is intensifying and accelerating existing cyber threats. In this video, Rob Pike, founder of Cyemptive, demonstrates during his masterclass at Cybersec Netherlands how a pre-emptive approach can address these threats.
AI Accelerates Cyberattacks
The warning leaves little room for doubt. According to the seven organisations, AI enables attackers to identify and exploit vulnerabilities more quickly, while attacks may remain undetected for longer. The NCTV emphasised that it does not want to wait until the consequences become apparent through large-scale incidents.
Faster Detection Is Not Enough to Win the Race
This raises an uncomfortable question. If attacks are becoming faster and can remain undetected for longer, how much longer can organisations rely on defences that first need to detect what is happening?
Cyemptive takes a different approach. Systems are continuously restored to a validated, clean state, regardless of whether an attack has been detected. This prevents attackers from gaining a foothold. As a result, operational continuity no longer depends on how quickly a security team detects an attacker. This approach complements the essential security measures rightly emphasised by the seven organisations.
Too Good to Be True?
That is why Rob Pike goes beyond presenting slides. During the masterclass, he carries out the attacks himself, allowing the audience to see exactly what happens to the systems in real time.
Sovereignty Means Control
The second key theme of the masterclass is sovereignty. Being sovereign means that no external party determines when your organisation can resume operations. With Cyemptive's approach, not a single byte of customer data leaves the organisation. Customers retain full control over their systems, recovery processes and data.
