The summer camp for the infiltrators brought together the infiltrators, researchers, practitioners and leaders in cybersecurity to review the forefront of security research, sharing tools and technologies, and knowing what is at the forefront of everyone’s minds in the field of security.
So, what was at the forefront of the conversation this year in Las Vegas, and what are the trends in cybersecurity that you need to be aware of?
We are to meet the fast food from Black hat usa and Def Con in a new CABLELABS technical brief, exclusively available for our member operators. We will also dive into conferences more during an online symposium for members only on Wednesday, September 17. Members can register here to join us.
Currently, some of our high -level vision has been summarized here.
What is new is new again: piracy is like the nineties
With the rapid adoption of tools such as artificial intelligence and its agent variables, the effects of the basics demand in security are more effective than ever. Several different presentations at Hacker Summer Camp focused on this topic, in which researchers have constantly showed how classic electronic attacks are still prosperous, now applied to modern contexts such as Agency AI. Prefabble meals? The program centered on artificial intelligence is still a program; Thus, the basics apply: the application of the least concession, the separation of interests, the sterilization of comprehensive and more inputs.
Artificial Intelligence: A new and unlimited implementation environment
It is not surprising, artificial intelligence is still at the forefront of discussion. A novel of recent years was the idea that artificial intelligence is no longer just a Chatbot interface that has been added to your structure, but a completely new implementation environment. Several presentations and demonstrations offered how to misuse or confuse large language applications (LLM) and AI AGENIC AI, with many unwanted results. While there is a great deal of work to be done to secure emerging artificial intelligence techniques, many strategies have been recommended to relieve attacks. Artificial intelligence is also adopted in cybersecurity, from each of the views of the infection and defender, which shows that the arms race through cybersecurity is another in implementation.
Automation disadvantages: spread quickly, faster fruit – with a radius with a larger explosion
The automation tools, such as continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD), occupied the center of the lead for many discussions, as simple and hidden discrimination operations led to severe consequences, from initial access and side movement. With one of the cases of the Agency AI’s killer as assistants of coding and source code, today’s relationship between artificial intelligence and automation tools is a close relationship. Consequently, the surface of the above -mentioned attack of the components of artificial intelligence has direct effects on those in automation tools.
Initial access: CI/CD, developers and supply chain attacks
Finally, conferences this year showed the increasing burden of developers, to serve as security strongholds. However, the surface of the attack faced by the ordinary developer is also increasing. This is partly due to the addition and management of artificial intelligence assistants with access to the code as well as the use of additions to the integrated developer environments (IDES) such as the visual studio code everywhere throughout the industry. The developers and the tools they interact with are of increasing value for the opponents to target them, and create opportunities for initial access and even carrying out the supply chain attacks.
The development of cybersecurity continues to move forward
Hacker Summer Camp 2025 explained that the rapid transformations that we see in techniques such as artificial intelligence have left large gaps in ensuring that the basics of security remained covered. It also showed that cyber security professionals and their lovers are doing the work required to address these gaps, in addition to adopting new methods and classic air conditioning to support cyber security controls.
