Agentic AI as Financial Crime: How LLM-Powered Bots Are Redefining Automated Threats

Shashwat Jain

The next generation of financially motivated cybercrime isn't being executed by humans - it's being delegated to AI agents. In this talk, Shashwat Jain reveals how LLM-powered bots are actively being weaponized for account takeover, payment fraud, inventory manipulation, and credential abuse across online platforms. These agentic attackers don't just execute scripts - they reason, adapt, and mimic human behavior, rendering traditional defenses obsolete. This session presents real-world attacker behavioral patterns, detection signals, and AI-powered countermeasures to identify and neutralize these threats before financial damage is done.
