HYPR: Overcoming AI-Accelerated Identity Attacks
Friday, 16 October, 2026
Send us Fan MailDirectly from Black Hat SecTor in Toronto, eChannelnews host Paolo Del Nibletto speaks with Bojan Simic, CEO and Co-Founder of HYPR, regarding the evolving landscape of identity assurance and authentication bypass threats. Bojan emphasizes that traditional passwords, one-time codes, and session tokens remain vulnerable to AI-accelerated browser spoofing, interception, and help desk impersonation attacks (such as social engineering and insider threats). To mitigate these risks, Bojan advocates for true phishing-resistant passkeys and device-bound cryptography paired with multi-factor human verification. Because passkeys require physical human presence that automated AI agents cannot replicate, enterprises are increasingly adopting passkey architectures to establish verifiable trust, enforce zero-trust access controls, and prevent unauthorized AI-driven actions.
