Abstract:
This workshop provides direct, practical exposure to agentic AI in an offensive context. Participants will work within a controlled environment to observe and interact with AI agents executing attack sequences against live infrastructure. The session is designed to move understanding from conceptual to operational, grounding threat model discussions in observed agent behavior rather than speculation.
