Horizon3.ai employee Thomas Esslinger is speaking at the DIGITAL X Köln event on September 8th about how KI cyberattacks change, which attack patterns are particularly relevant, and why companies must continuously check their security from the perspective of real attackers.

Horizon3.ai answers the two most important questions in cybersecurity: If someone tried to compromise us, would we hold up? And, how do we withstand the onslaught of AI-powered attacks? Horizon3.ai’s NodeZero® shifts the advantage from attackers to defenders by giving organizations the power to fight AI with AI. The Proactive Security Platform autonomously tests your defenses at machine speed, safely finds and prioritizes exploitable attack paths, instantly verifies fixes, and drives a continuous loop so you can prove you’re resilient, not just hope you are.
