Security professionals face continuing cyber threats including ransomware, supply chain compromise and identity-based attacks, while supporting their organisations in the rapid adoption of AI and Agentic technologies.
This session explores how we can help organisations defend against modern attacks by using well known best practices, whilst also building a foundation for securing AI-enabled business systems.
The presentation will examine how core security methods — including governance, identity protection, monitoring, and resilience — must evolve as AI becomes more autonomous and embedded into enterprise operations. Attendees will gain practical insight into balancing innovation with trusted security in the era of agentic AI.
