SUMMARY:Community Engagement Meeting – May 2026
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence is reshaping cyber security on both sides of the equation. Adversaries are using AI to accelerate attack development\, craft more convincing social engineering\, and automate reconnaissance at a scale previously impossible for all but the most sophisticated threat actors. At the same time\, defenders are harnessing AI to detect threats faster\, reduce analyst fatigue\, and close the resource gap — particularly in the SMB market where skilled headcount is hardest to retain. \nThis webinar brings together a CrowdStrike specialist MSSP and a CrowdStrike technical expert to explore what the AI arms race actually looks like in practice\, what SMBs and mid-market organisations should prioritise right now\, and how the next generation of security tooling is changing the calculus for resource-constrained teams. \nTopics to Be Covered \n1. AI as an Offensive Weapon\n– How threat actors are using large language models to generate phishing content\, malware variants\, and social engineering scripts at scale\n– AI-accelerated vulnerability research: from discovery to exploit in compressed timeframes\n– Deepfake audio and video as a vector for business email compromise and identity fraud\n– The democratisation of sophisticated attack tooling — and what it means when script-kiddies have AI\n– Nation-state actors and their use of AI to enhance persistence\, evasion\, and lateral movement \n2. AI as a Defensive Tool\n– How AI-native platforms like CrowdStrike Falcon detect threats in real time by correlating telemetry at scale\n– Behavioural analytics and anomaly detection: moving beyond signature-based approaches\n– AI-assisted triage: reducing mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR)\n– Charlotte AI and the role of conversational AI in the SOC — accelerating analyst workflows\n– How MSSPs leverage AI tooling to extend defence capacity without expanding headcount \n3. The SMB and Mid-Market Challenge\n– Why SMBs are disproportionately targeted — and disproportionately under-resourced\n– The cyber skills shortage and how AI changes the calculus for smaller security teams\n– Supply chain risk: how attackers compromise large organisations via their smaller partners\n– What the UK Cyber Security Breaches Survey tells us about AI-era exposure for SMBs\n– Practical steps organisations without dedicated security staff can take today \n4. Building the Right Security Posture for an AI World\n– Platform vs point solution: why consolidation matters when threats evolve faster than tools\n– The role of managed services in delivering AI-powered defence to organisations that can’t build it themselves\n– How to evaluate AI security claims — separating genuine capability from marketing noise\n– Incident response in the age of AI: faster attacks demand faster containment\n– Frameworks and practical guidance: NCSC\, CISA\, and CrowdStrike’s own adversary intelligence \n5. Looking Ahead: The Next 12 Months\n– Autonomous agents as both an attack vector and a defensive capability\n– AI regulation in the UK and EU — and what it means for how organisations manage AI risk\n– The evolving attacker economy: AI-as-a-Service on the dark web\n– Where the industry is investing and what that signals for defenders \nSpeakers \nTom Exelby — Head of Cybersecurity\, Red Helix / OxCyber Ambassador\nTom leads cybersecurity at Red Helix\, where he is responsible for product strategy\, partner programme development\, and GTM across the firm’s CrowdStrike-managed service portfolio. He brings a practitioner’s perspective on how AI-driven threats are landing in the UK SMB market and what organisations at varying levels of security maturity should prioritise. As an OxCyber Ambassador\, Tom is a regular contributor to the community’s thought leadership programme. \nJames Jenkins — CrowdStrike\nJames Jenkins represents CrowdStrike’s technical and commercial expertise\, with direct visibility into how the Falcon platform is being used to counter evolving\, AI-enabled threats across customer environments. His contribution will ground the discussion in the operational reality of what defenders are seeing — and what the tooling is capable of — right now. \nWho Should Attend\nThis webinar is designed for:\n– IT managers and senior leaders in SMB and mid-market organisations responsible for security decisions\n– CISOs and security professionals looking for a grounded\, practitioner-led view on AI and cyber risk\n– Business leaders (CFOs\, COOs\, CEOs) seeking to understand AI-era risk exposure and investment priorities\n– OxCyber members and the wider Oxfordshire technology and security community\n– Security consultants and advisors supporting clients through AI-driven threat uplift \nKey Takeaways for Attendees\n– A clear-eyed view of how AI is changing the threat landscape — with specific examples\, not abstractions\n– Practical guidance on the defensive technologies and approaches that are making a material difference\n– An understanding of what ‘good’ looks like for SMBs and mid-market organisations facing AI-accelerated threats\n– Direct insight from CrowdStrike into how one of the world’s leading security platforms is evolving to meet these challenges\n– A framework for evaluating your own security posture in light of AI-era risks \nRegister here: https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/b54d29ef-fb5b-47e9-b023-509908046235@158e39a1-001c-44f0-90d6-35872708c845 \nThe future is digital\, and OxCyber is leading the way! \nWe look forward to having you attend the event!

SUMMARY:Community Engagement Meeting – January 2026
DESCRIPTION:Securing Open-Source Libraries at the Source: Eliminating Software Supply Chain Risk \nOpen-source libraries are the foundation of modern software\, but they are also one of the largest and least protected attack surfaces in the software supply chain. \nIn this webinar\, Chainguard’s Senior Principal Developer Relations Engineer Manfred Moser explains why over 80% of today’s applications depend on open source\, how public package registries have become prime targets for attackers\, and why traditional approaches like CVE scanning and client-side patching are no longer enough. \nYou’ll learn how software supply chain attacks actually happen\, from typosquatting and compromised build systems to malware distributed without source code\, and why most developer-targeted malware originates from public registries like PyPI\, npm\, and Maven Central. \nThe session introduces Chainguard Libraries\, a proactive approach to open-source library management that rebuilds libraries directly from trusted source code\, blocks malware before it reaches your environment\, and delivers fully compatible artifacts with built-in SBOMs and SLSA provenance. Using Chainguard’s Chain Factory system\, this model prevents entire classes of supply-chain attacks rather than reacting after the fact. \nWhat’s covered: \n1. How the open-source software supply chain works and where it breaks\n2. Common supply-chain attacks targeting libraries and registries\n3. Why CVE scanners and patching fall short against malware\n4. How Chainguard Libraries rebuild and secure libraries from source\n5. Support for Python\, Java\, and JavaScript\n6. Built-in SBOMs\, SLSA provenance\, and compliance readiness \nWhat you’ll learn: \n1. How to eliminate over 98% of library-based malware risk\n2. How to secure dependencies without changing developer workflows\n3. How rebuilding libraries from source simplifies compliance \nWhether you’re a security leader\, platform engineer\, or developer\, this session will help you understand today’s software supply chain risks and how to cut them off at the source. \nPlus…rumor has it there’s a free coffee voucher for those who attend! ☕️ \nSave the Date: Tuesday\, 20th January 2026 \nTime: 9:15 – 10:25 am (networking until 10:40 am)\nWhere: Online via Teams \nRegister here: https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/32cdeef3-0480-4343-9522-6a23552f137e@158e39a1-001c-44f0-90d6-35872708c845 \nThe future is digital\, and OxCyber is leading the way! \nWe look forward to having you attend the event!
