In this video, we dive into a real-world Red Team vs. Blue Team scenario. We simulate a cyberattack on a Finance Application that has integrated a new LLM Chatbot. You’ll see firsthand how attackers use Prompt Injection to bypass standard rules, how they move laterally through Kubernetes clusters, and how they attempt to execute Zero Day exploits.

More importantly, we show you how to defend against it. Using Cisco’s Hybrid Mesh Firewall, AI Defense, and Secure Workload, we demonstrate how to:
1. Detect & Block Prompt Injections: safeguarding your LLMs from manipulation.
2. Secure Kubernetes: using micro-segmentation to isolate threats in the cloud.
3. Inspect Encrypted Traffic: utilizing the Encrypted Visibility Engine (EVE) to
spot malware in TLS flows without decryption.

Whether you are a Network Engineer, Security Analyst, or just interested in how AI is changing the cybersecurity landscape, this demo is packed with practical insights

Big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring my trip to Cisco Live Amsterdam.
