Organizations continue to invest in phishing defenses, identity protection, and multi-factor authentication, yet account takeover attacks remain one of the most disruptive security incidents facing enterprises today.
On July 8, 2026, BleepingComputer will host a live webinar titled "Stop chasing alerts: Automating email security with behavioral AI" presented by Dan Nickolaisen, Solutions Architect Manager at Abnormal AI, and Eric Danneker, Director of Cyber Vigilance and Defense at Novant Health.
The webinar will examine how attackers gain access to legitimate accounts, why traditional security controls often struggle to detect account compromise quickly, and how behavioral AI can help security teams accelerate investigations and response.
Modern account takeover attacks frequently rely on trusted identities, legitimate cloud services, and compromised business accounts rather than obviously malicious activity. As a result, attackers can blend into normal business operations while maintaining access to email, collaboration platforms, and corporate resources.
Security teams are often left investigating suspicious messages, unusual login activity, and user reports long after attackers have established a foothold.
Abnormal AI helps organizations identify abnormal account behavior and automate investigation workflows, enabling analysts to detect compromised accounts faster and respond more efficiently.
Attendees will learn practical approaches for identifying account compromise earlier, reducing manual investigation work, and limiting the impact of account takeover attacks.
Compromised accounts are difficult to distinguish from legitimate users
Unlike traditional malware attacks, account takeover incidents often involve legitimate credentials, trusted devices, and normal business communications.
This makes compromised accounts significantly harder to identify using traditional security controls alone.
