Session Presented by Horizon3: Without Offense, How Do You Know Defense is Working?
About

Join Anthony Pillitiere, Co-Founder at Horizon3.ai, for an eye-opening session where he’ll discuss real-world examples of what was discovered in enterprise networks just like yours. You’ll hear how fast and easy it is to compromise even the largest environments — often achieving full domain takeover in minutes, sometimes without ever exploiting a CVE.

This session explores why relying solely on defensive tools without verifying their effectiveness is no longer enough — and how real-world offensive testing is transforming how security teams quantify and remediate actual risk.

You'll learn how modern security teams are:

  • Exposing hidden credentials and sensitive business data that can be stolen or abused
  • Identifying high-value targets with access to critical systems before attackers do
  • Verifying endpoint detection tools to confirm they catch or block lateral movement
  • Mapping internal attack paths to real-world adversary playbooks and TTPs
  • Consolidating validated weaknesses into a clear, prioritized risk picture
  • Automating retesting and fix verification so teams can confidently reduce risk

Key takeaways include:

  • Why the industry needs a paradigm shift from risk scoring to attack-based prioritization
  • How a false sense of security often leads to a very real sense of breach
  • And why the “perimeter” was never really there in the first place

If you want to understand how to measure your true risk posture — and prove your defenses actually work — this session is for you.
