With high-profile incidents increasing and the ongoing shift toward more sophisticated socially engineered, AI powered voice attacks, this topic is timely and essential for enterprise leaders looking to close a critical security gap. Voice communications are rapidly becoming one of the fastest-growing cybersecurity threat vectors with 1 in 5 successful breaches attributed to voice phishing. Yet many organizations remain unprepared.
This session explores the evolution of voice as a significant threat vector, highlighting why it continues to be the most under protected communication channel. We'll analyze real-world examples, including socially engineered voice spear phishing attacks like those deployed by Scattered Spider and ALPHV against MGM, to illustrate the urgency of addressing this gap and the emerging role deep fake voice plays in initial access.
The discussion will cover the latest mitigations, from joint FBI/CISA advisories and the MITRE framework including education and voice traffic firewall controls designed to prevent attacks before they happen. Attendees will gain actionable insights into implementing foundational best practices for voice cybersecurity across four critical business units: Cybersecurity, Information Technology, risk management, and the Contact Center. The session will provide guidance on conducting a voice traffic assessment to evaluate organizational risk and enhance protection strategies.
