The New Apex Predator: CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz on Adversaries Armed With AI Agents

George Kurtz, CEO of CrowdStrike, discusses how agentic AI has flattened the adversary pyramid, putting nation-state-grade tradecraft in the hands of low-skill attackers, and why open-weight models have become the tip of the spear. He covers CrowdStrike's Safe Mind lab, built with NVIDIA around red and blue security models trained on fifteen years of telemetry, the lessons from the Hugging Face incident, the case for defense dominance, and why he sees AI as a net creator of opportunity.

Hacking AI Systems: How to (Still) Trick Artificial Intelligence • Katharine Jarmul • GOTO 2025

To build secure AI systems, we must first learn to break them. Katharine Jarmul explores the landscape of adversarial AI, detailing how attackers exploit fundamental weaknesses in deep learning models—from poisoned training data and overparameterization to the attention mechanism itself. This talk provides a practical taxonomy of attacks and a primer on building robust defenses.
