## Description

What happens when the attacker isn’t malware, but a “colleague”? AI is enabling scammers to deploy synthetic identities that can pass interviews with stolen identities, integrate into teams, and access internal systems at scale. In this talk, we unpack how deepfakes, LLM agents, and automation are reshaping the threat landscape, using real cases, underground techniques, and a live demo to show why trust has become the most exploited layer in modern IT architectures.
