Preparing the SF 49ers and NY Giants for the 2026 Season: Defending Against AI-Powered Social Engineering
AI is transforming the speed, scale, and sophistication of social engineering attacks targeting professional sports organizations. Impersonation, phishing, deepfakes, and fraud can now extend beyond the traditional enterprise to target high-profile athletes, executives, coaches, employees, team brands, and fans.
Watch security leaders from the New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers, and Doppel for a discussion on how the threat landscape is changing and what professional sports organizations can do to strengthen their resilience before the season.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- How AI is reshaping impersonation, phishing, deepfake, and fraud risks across professional sports.
- Why protecting a franchise requires a broader approach than securing a traditional enterprise.
- How attackers coordinate connected campaigns across email, domains, social media, SMS, paid media, and other channels.
- Practical steps teams can take before the 2026 season to better protect athletes, executives, brands, and fans.
