The rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has introduced both transformative opportunities and unprecedented risks to the cybersecurity landscape. While AI is a powerful tool for automating threat detection and enhancing security protocols, it also presents new avenues for cybercriminals to launch more sophisticated attacks. In AI in Cybersecurity: Navigating the Double-Edged Sword, we’ll explore AI’s dual impact—empowering both defenders and attackers—and discuss how to harness AI responsibly to protect against emerging threats.
This session will cover:
- An overview of AI’s evolution and its prominence in the modern business world.
- How malicious actors exploit AI for nefarious purposes, and the vulnerabilities that arise.
- How cybersecurity professionals use AI to fortify defenses, identify threats, and mitigate risks.
- Predictions for AI’s long-term influence on the security industry.
- The latest technological tools and techniques that can mitigate the risks posed by AI.
We’ll also offer guidance on developing an artificial intelligence policy that allows your organization to leverage AI’s productivity benefits while minimizing risks to data security. Participants will walk away with actionable insights into how to implement AI securely in their business, staying ahead of both competitors and cyber threats.
