Beyond the Gateway: Solving the Trust Equation in an API-First Financial World
Description

Join industry experts as they explore the unprecedented convergence of AI-enhanced bots and quantum computing capabilities reshaping the cybersecurity landscape. With automated bot traffic now exceeding 51% of web traffic and AI democratizing sophisticated attack tools, financial institutions face escalating threats from adaptive, human-like bots executing account takeovers and credential stuffing at scale. Simultaneously, quantum computing advances threaten current encryption standards, with experts predicting a 17-34% chance of RSA-2048 being compromised by 2034. Panelists will examine how threat actors are combining autonomous web-hacking LLMs with massive botnets, the implications of "harvest now, decrypt later" attacks, and why traditional security approaches fall short. Discussion will focus on next-generation web application and API protection (WAAP) solutions and post-quantum cryptography strategies essential for protecting financial services infrastructure.
