Cyber Threat Landscape Briefing 2026

Attackers in 2026 aren't reinventing their methods so much as sharpening the ones that already work, using them faster and recovering more quickly when disrupted. In this 45-minute session, three of Bridewell's senior threat intelligence analysts unpack the key findings from their latest Cyber Threat Intelligence Report and what they mean in practice.

It covers how attacker infrastructure is shifting, why identity-led compromise through stolen credentials, session tokens, OAuth abuse and non-human identities is becoming central, how information stealers fuel ransomware, why data theft is overtaking encryption as the main extortion lever, social engineering techniques like ClickFix and ConsentFix, attacks that abuse trusted cloud platforms, and how AI is boosting attacker capability.

It closes with emerging risks to watch, including edge device exploitation, DPRK-linked activity, supply chain compromise and the blurring of criminal and state-aligned operations.
