AI Attacks Move in Minutes. Join This Webinar on Building a Defense That Keeps Up

AI attacks now take minutes, outpacing human-speed defenses; Zscaler webinar offers Zero Trust solutions.

AI has dramatically accelerated attack timelines, with operations that once took days now completing in minutes. This rapid pace, exemplified by models like Mythos, outstrips traditional security tools and runbooks designed for human-speed threats. Zscaler is hosting a webinar to demonstrate how a Zero Trust approach can counter these AI-driven attacks by reducing attack surface, controlling lateral movement, and enabling early detection.

The lesson from this incident

Full lesson

AI-powered attack frameworks like Mythos have compressed attack timelines from days to minutes, fundamentally breaking the assumptions behind traditional security operations designed for human-speed threats. Legacy runbooks and manual response procedures cannot keep pace with automated, AI-driven lateral movement and exploitation chains. This represents a critical gap where defenders are operating reactively while attackers move at machine speed. Organizations that fail to automate detection and response workflows, reduce attack surfaces, and enforce Zero Trust principles will find themselves structurally unable to contain modern AI-assisted breaches.
