Hoxhunt’s Maxime Cartier and Eliot Baker reveal how AI reshapes phishing in 2025 — from AI-written lures and deepfake scams to SVG-based attachments and defensive automation. Drawing on Verizon DBIR, IBM, and Hoxhunt data, they show why frequent, recent training still works and how AI now fuels and fights phishing at scale.

This session connects attack evolution, human behavior, and AI-assisted defense, giving a data-driven look at where phishing actually stands in 2025.

📊 Key Takeaways

Training works when it’s recent: Users trained in the last 30 days report 4× more phishing (Verizon DBIR).

AI increases both volume and precision: From generic lures to targeted spear-phishing at scale.

SVG attachments surged in 2025: SVGs can embed code and redirect to credential harvesters.

Deepfakes are rising fast, but traditional email phishing (BEC, credential harvesters) remains dominant.

AI helps defense too: Breach costs declined 9% YoY where AI-assisted response is deployed.

💡 FAQ / Quick Answers

Q: Are deepfakes the biggest threat now?
A: No. Deepfakes are rising and dangerous, but phishing emails remain the largest attack vector.

Q: What is an SVG phishing attachment?
A: An SVG is an image format that can contain scripts or redirects. Attackers use them to bypass filters.

Q: Does security training still work?
A: Yes. The Verizon DBIR found users trained within 30 days are far more likely to report phishing.

Q: Why does inbox-level data matter?
A: Because filter-blocked attacks don’t reach people — training should focus on what bypasses defenses.

The Nabataeans were desert traders who transformed one of the driest regions on Earth into a wealthy kingdom of cities, farms, caravan routes, and monuments carved directly into the rock.

They defeated armies sent by the successors of Alexander the Great, mastered the movement and storage of water, controlled some of the ancient world’s richest trade routes, and preserved their independence for generations as Rome absorbed the kingdoms around them. This is the complete story of Petra and the people who built it, from the first hidden cisterns in the desert to the archaeological discoveries still being made today.

This documentary draws on ancient writers including Diodorus Siculus, Strabo, Pliny the Elder, and Josephus, as well as the Petra Papyri, the Babatha archive, Nabataean inscriptions, archaeological research, and modern studies of Petra’s architecture and water systems. Where the evidence is uncertain or debated—including the purpose of the Treasury, Nabataean authority in Damascus, and the Roman annexation of 106 AD—the narration says so rather than choosing the most dramatic answer.

A few passages depicting ordinary life, including a caravan morning, work on the rock-cut monuments, the earthquake of 363 AD, and a Byzantine church service, are illustrative reconstructions based on documented historical and archaeological conditions. They are not accounts of specific recorded individuals.

Petra remains a living heritage landscape closely connected to the Bdoul Bedouin community, whose resettlement from the archaeological site during the twentieth century is also discussed in the film.

Developers now use AI in roughly 60% of their work. Ask how much they can fully delegate, hands off and no review, and the answer is 0 to 20%.

That gap is the whole story of agentic coding right now, and it runs through all eight predictions in Anthropic’s 2026 Agentic Coding Trends Report. This is a seven-minute walkthrough of the report: what changes in the software development lifecycle, what agents can now do, what it does to your economics, and the four priorities worth acting on this year.

Covered in this video:
• Why the engineer’s job moves from implementer to orchestrator
• Onboarding to an unfamiliar codebase collapsing from weeks to hours
• Single agents giving way to an orchestrator coordinating specialists in parallel
• The task horizon stretching from minutes to hours to days
• Agentic review, and why human oversight stops being a flat tax on every change
• Agentic coding reaching COBOL, Fortran, and roles outside engineering
• The 27% of AI-assisted work that would never have been done at all
• Software getting built by sales, marketing, legal and operations
• Dual-use security, and why the advantage goes to teams that build it in early
