  Presented by Devin Johnstone, Security Operations Consultant • Palo Alto Networks

In an era where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, traditional security measures are often insufficient. Devin Johnstone, Security Operations Domain Consultant at Palo Alto Networks with vast experience in network security, threat intelligence, and cloud security will delve into the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in modern cybersecurity. Attendees will gain insights into how AI enhances threat detection, enables proactive defense strategies, and addresses the evolving landscape of cyber threats. The discussion will also cover the benefits and challenges associated with integrating AI into cybersecurity frameworks, providing a comprehensive overview of how AI is shaping the future of cyber defense.

Devin has spent over a decade in the trenches of a Security Operations Center and is passionate about sharing his lived experience in building a successful SecOps team from the ground up. 8 years ago, he joined Palo Alto Networks to begin architecting the internal SOC and went on to lead the development of the Security Automation, Data Loss Prevention, Insider Risk, and Customer Outreach programs.

Devin has had the opportunity to advise thousands of security teams, big and small, in their security operations journeys through media, tours of Palo Alto Networks SOC facility, and at events in 7 countries. He has since moved into a Consultant role to help customers accelerate their realization of "the art of the possible": AI-enabled security operations strategies prepared for whatever the future brings.
