Session Presented by VanishID: What AI Needs to Beat Your Identity Controls Is Already Public
Tuesday, November 10, 2026, 11:45 AM - 12:10 PM

What AI Needs to Beat Your Identity Controls Is Already Public
Abstract: AI has turned exposed identity data into an attack surface that scales across the whole workforce. A cloned voice calling the help desk. Account recovery approved on breach dump answers. Authenticator re-enrollment for the wrong person. Targeted phishing that names the right vendor. Every one runs on facts already public, assembled per employee in minutes. No control in your identity stack acts on that surface today. This session makes the case for one that does.
Learning Objectives:
1. Follow the AI-fueled attack chain from your employees' public data to a completed compromise, and see why MFA, IAM and awareness training do not stop it.
2. Trace one help desk account takeover end to end: every fact the attacker needs, where it lives, and which countermeasures mitigate it.
3. Leave with a blueprint for standing up this control inside an existing identity program, and why it has to run continuously rather than on a schedule.
