KEYNOTE: Attack Surface in Motion: Why Today’s Threats Don’t Knock First

Over the past decade and a half, the tactics of threat actors have quietly but fundamentally transformed. What began as slow, targeted intelligence gathering has evolved into automated, scalable exploitation of exposed assets—often before defenders even notice. In this keynote, we’ll trace the journey of threat actor innovation, highlighting shifts in recon methods, asset targeting, and speed of attack. We’ll dissect common attack surface mistakes that open the door for breaches, especially in the last couple of years, and challenge assumptions around visibility and control. The attack surface is always in motion—are you keeping up?
