Presentation: Lead with AI: Transforming Cybersecurity with Artificial Intelligence

The cybersecurity landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace, with attackers leveraging automation, AI, and machine learning to outmaneuver traditional defenses. To stay ahead, we must rethink how we defend our systems, manage risk, and make critical decisions.

This talk will break down practical ways to integrate AI into security operations, from streamlining workflows to improving threat intelligence analysis. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of AI’s strengths and limitations, ethical considerations, and how to build AI-driven strategies that empower security teams rather than overwhelm them.

Speaker:
Marcus Carey
