Webinar: AI-Enhanced Phishing Attacks: Why Traditional Training Isn’t Enough & What Actually Works
John O'Connell2026-03-04T19:49:45+00:00In this insightful webinar, John O’Connell and Tim O’Connell of The Oasis Group delve into AI-enhanced phishing attacks, discussing how major financial institutions including Ameriprise and LPL Financial have recently fallen victim to sophisticated phishing attacks—and they won’t be the last. The game has fundamentally changed. Artificial intelligence is making phishing attacks so convincing that even trained employees can’t tell the difference between legitimate and malicious communications.
Traditional security training tells employees to look for spelling errors, suspicious links, and urgent requests. But here’s the problem: AI has eliminated these red flags. Modern phishing emails are grammatically perfect, use your company’s exact branding, and when you click the link, the fake website is pixel-perfect—indistinguishable from the real thing.
The uncomfortable truth? Employee training alone is no longer an effective defense. Firms that rely solely on “spotting the signs” are leaving themselves dangerously exposed. In this webinar, cybersecurity expert Tim O’Connell and industry thought leader John O’Connell reveal why password managers—not training—are now your first line of defense, and how passkeys can eliminate this threat entirely.
