AI, Cyber Risk & Deepfakes: Breakfast Roundtable

A two-hour interactive breakfast session on how AI is changing attacker tactics - AI-generated phishing, voice and video deepfakes, and what defending against them actually takes. Adaptable Recruitment runs it with CyberLab at DiSH on Lloyd Street, in a small-group format rather than a lecture. The agenda has four parts: a threat-landscape briefing on where the risk sits, a live demonstration of real attack techniques billed as Hacked, Live, a deepfake spotting challenge, and Q&A with the CyberLab specialists. It is aimed at business leaders, IT professionals and decision-makers, and the material is pitched in plain language rather than at practitioners. No individual speakers are named. 09:30 to 11:30, places limited. Why go: the live attack demo and the deepfake challenge make this more useful than the average cyber-awareness briefing, and DiSH pulls a serious Greater Manchester security crowd. Best for IT and operations leaders at SMEs who own this risk without a security team behind them.
