AI Attacks on Physical Security Systems: What Government Buyers Should Require
AI is accelerating real-world attacks against physical security environments—from deepfake voice calls that bypass verification, to AI-assisted reconnaissance that finds exposed cameras, intercoms, and video management system (VMS) interfaces faster than ever. This session breaks down how adversaries are using AI across the attack life cycle, with practical examples of where physical security systems most commonly fail. Attendees leave with a vendor-neutral set of technical and procurement requirements government buyers can use to reduce risk.
