Infosec Trends to Prepare for in 2026
Looking ahead to 2026, we anticipate a year marked by continued ambiguity and change, where resource-constrained defenders battle well-enabled and resourced adversaries leveraging AI for their attacks. Concurrently, the CISO role continues to evolve, shifting from a technical guardian to a strategic business partner focused on influence, communication and value creation to navigate increasing risk, regulations and economic pressures on security budgets. In this webinar, IANS Faculty Aaron Turner and Steven John call out the areas they believe will be most impactful to CISOs and their teams in 2026. Hear an overview of the trends and recommendations of actionable steps to work into your roadmap, including discussion around topics such as:
- Preparing for changes to the encryption ecosystem by understanding how Slow Latent Models (SLMs) and AI-facilitated side-channel attacks will disrupt the encryption ecosystem
- Readying for the continued disruption of CISA’s services to the community as well as other geopolitical and macro-economic uncertainties
- Strengthening business acumen, communication and storytelling as a leadership tool amidst AI's disruption of the technology market
