Taking key findings from Recorded Future's Insikt Group's Annual 2026 State of Security Report, this talk captures how global fragmentation, rising geopolitical risk, and rapid advances in cyber and AI are reshaping the threat landscape, driving greater disruption, cyber pre-positioning, and systemic uncertainty worldwide.

The session will cover the following topics:

Geopolitical Fragmentation and Systemic Risk: The impact of breaking global norms and regional tensions on critical infrastructure.

Cyber Pre-positioning and Strategic Disruption: The shift from immediate data theft to long-term, latent presence by state actors.

AI-Driven Threat Acceleration: How rapid advances in cyber and AI are compressing attack timelines and driving global uncertainty.
