DESCRIPTION:The rush to embed AI into everything is quickly opening up una
 nticipated attack surfaces. Manipulating natural language systems using pr
 ompt injection and related techniques feels eerily similar to socially eng
 ineering humans. Are these similarities only superficial\, or is there som
 ething deeper at play? The Cognitive Attack Taxonomy (CAT) is a continuous
 ly expanding catalog of over 350 cognitive vulnerabilities\, exploits\, an
 d TTPs which have been applied to humans\, AI\, and non-human biological e
 ntities. Examples of attacks in the CAT include linguistic techniques used
  in social engineering attacks to prompt a response\, disabling autonomous
  vehicles with video projection\, using compromised websites to induce neg
 ative neurophysiological effects\, manipulating large language models to e
 xpose sensitive files or deploy natively generated malware\, disrupting th
 e power grid using coupons\, and many other examples. The CAT offers the o
 pportunity to create on demand cognitive attack graphs and kill chains for
  nearly any target. This talk concludes with a brief demo integrating cogn
 itive attack graphs into a purpose-built ensemble AI model capable of auto
 nomously assessing a target's vulnerabilities\, identifying an exploit\, s
 electing TTPs\, and finally launching a simulated attack on that target. T
 he CAT will be made publicly available at the time of this presentation.
