From infostealers and AI to DPRK IT workers and escalating geopolitical conflict in the Middle East, join Flashpoint for an actionable discussion on the top cyber threats redefining the global risk landscape – all backed by Flashpoint’s leading data and intelligence.
Date: Tuesday, August 5, 2025
Time: 9:00 – 10:00 AM with optional Q&A and networking 10:00 – 10:30 AM PT
Location: W Hotel – Indigo C on the 5th floor, conveniently just a 10 min walk from the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.
Join Flashpoint’s executive and intelligence leadership for an exclusive, in-person briefing on the quickly evolving cyber threats shaping the global risk landscape – and what you can do to mitigate them.
The briefing will draw on proprietary data and intelligence to examine the surge in infostealer and ransomware activity, unpack the evolution of cybercriminal ecosystems, including Ransomware-as-a-Service and malicious AI, and explore how today’s most volatile geopolitical flashpoints, including the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict, will continue to reshape the global threat landscape. After, you’ll have the opportunity to interact directly with the experts and gain critical perspectives to prepare your organization.
