You don't have to trek to Las Vegas to experience the best of Black Hat USA 2024.
The Dark Reading team was in the thick of things at News Desk, where they steamed interviews live from the heart of the Black Hat action at Mandalay Bay. During two full days of live Black Hat coverage, Dark Reading invited the world's top cybersecurity researchers, leaders, and experts to sit down at the News Desk and take on today's most pressing issues, including the rise of artificial intelligence and the evaluation of national cybersecurity strategies, as well as analyst forecasts into the year ahead and beyond.
On the first day (livestream) Dark Reading spoke with Omdia director Maxine Holt to break down the highlights from the Omdia Analyst Summit at Black Hat, as well as MITRE engineers Marissa Dotter and Alexander Byrne, who discussed their research on large language models for offensive use. Columbia University scholar Jason Healy also stopped by to share insights into his Black Hat USA 2024 Briefing, "Is Defense Winning?"
