Microsoft at Black Hat USA 2026: Defending trust in the age of AI and supply chain attacks
Microsoft is presenting at Black Hat USA 2026 on August 4-6 in Las Vegas, highlighting how threat actors exploit trusted software, services, and developer tools to scale attacks across supply chains and AI systems. Key sessions include David Weston's keynote on defense when offensive capability becomes scalable, and a presentation on active npm (Node package manager) supply chain attacks. Microsoft will showcase new expert-led threat intelligence services and multicloud coverage for its Defender Experts offering.
Why it matters: Security teams and SOC leaders need to understand how threat actors abuse trusted paths in software ecosystems and developer workflows to prioritize their defense strategies before these vulnerabilities become active attack vectors in their environments.

Microsoft at Black Hat USA 2026: Defending trust in the age of AI and supply chain attacks
Microsoft will present at Black Hat USA 2026 in August on how threat actors exploit trusted software, services, identities, and artificial intelligence (AI) systems across supply chains. The keynote will address the shift in offensive capability becoming easier to access and scale, while a main stage session will cover recent npm (Node package manager) supply chain attacks and how organizations can detect campaigns earlier. Security operations teams are being encouraged to understand trust paths that attackers can abuse across software, identity, cloud, and AI environments.
Why it matters: Security practitioners and leaders should review these sessions to understand the evolving attack surface where threat actors target trusted tools and developer workflows, and to learn detection and response strategies for supply chain campaigns affecting their software dependencies and infrastructure.
