[Virtual] PRO Session: AI Frontiers: Shielding Digital Gateways from Bot Invasions

Thursday February 20, 2025 10:30am - 10:55am PST

Parth Shukla, Cequence Security, Security Analyst
Khyati Ganatra, Cequence Security, Manager, Applied ML

In the presentation titled "AI Frontiers: Shielding Digital Gateways from Bot Invasions," we delve into the forefront of cyber defense against bot-driven threats that exploit API vulnerabilities. This comprehensive study explores how advanced AI and ML models are being harnessed to fortify digital defenses, offering a detailed analysis of API communication patterns and the evolving landscape of bot attacks. Through a series of real-world case studies, we illuminate the mechanisms of sophisticated bot strategies—ranging from data breaches and account takeovers to shopping bots that deplete inventories. The narrative progresses to unveil how AI/ML technologies serve as the cornerstone of innovative defense mechanisms. We dissect the architecture of AI-driven systems tailored to detect and counteract anomalous behaviors indicative of bot activities, leveraging vast datasets to train ML models that adeptly differentiate between legitimate user interactions and malicious bot intrusions. The discussion further navigates through the technical and operational nuances of implementing AI/ML defenses, emphasizing predictive analytics for preemptive action, machine learning for dynamic threat adaptation, and the overarching impact of such technologies in securing digital ecosystems against the insidious threats posed by automated attacks. This presentation not only highlights the challenges but also showcases the resilience and adaptability of AI/ML solutions in the ever-evolving battle against digital villains.
