In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, the expansion of our technical ecosystems poses both unprecedented opportunities and considerable challenges with the adoption of AI. 

This session invites thought leaders and practitioners to explore the evolving role of Artificial Intelligence in business processes and security frameworks. As AI technology accelerates, understanding its potential and limitations is paramount for security professionals.

During this conversation, we will delve into three key areas: 

• Understanding Current AI Business Processes: Explore how AI is being integrated into business operations and its impact on security strategies.
• Iterating the use of AI Across the Entire Organization: Examine how AI initiatives can be scaled and iterated across different teams, from development to operations, ensuring alignment with security goals.
• Mapping Actionable AI and Business Goals to Security Initiatives: Learn how to create clear, actionable objectives that bridge AI innovation with vital security priorities.

Join us for an insightful discussion on how to harness AI’s potential while navigating the unique challenges it presents to security professionals.

Join Anthony “TonyP” Pillitiere, Co-Founder of Horizon3.ai, for an engaging session on “Offense-Driven Defense.” TonyP will challenge conventional risk assessment practices and unveil how emphasizing real-world exploitability and impact can revolutionize your security approach. Drawing from over 100,000 autonomous pentests, he’ll share compelling stories and actionable insights that reveal how viewing your cyber terrain through an attacker’s lens can uncover hidden vulnerabilities, optimize resource allocation, and fortify your defenses against advanced threats. Don’t miss this chance to learn from a leading industry trailblazer on why it’s time to “go hack yourself” to build resilience in today’s borderless threat environment.

Join us for a discussion on Agentic AI and its role in hyperautomation. Learn about the differences between Agentic and Generative AI, as well as the benefits and potential risks of AI in cybersecurity. Discover best practices and strategies for implementing AI in the SOC, including threat detection, human-in-the-loop systems, and ensuring data privacy. Explore the strengths and weaknesses of AI and automation.  We’ll provide actionable tips for getting started with AI in your SOC and discuss some challenges and things to consider in your journey.

The Invisible Challenge: Addressing Insider Threats in Cybersecurity

Insider threats represent one of the most complex and persistent challenges in cybersecurity today. Unlike external attackers, insiders operate with legitimate credentials, often moving under the radar of traditional detection tools. This duality—trusted access combined with potential malicious intent—creates a critical blind spot for many organizations.

The Question: How Can We Detect the Undetectable?
The key lies in understanding the nuanced behaviors of users within your organization. By identifying what constitutes “normal” activity and uncovering subtle deviations, security teams can shine a light on insider risks before they escalate into breaches.

Discover How to Stay Ahead of Insider Threats

Insider threats demand a strategic, data-driven response. Join Exabeam’s session to explore how to detect subtle behavioral shifts as your organization grows more complex. Learn how our proven approach empowers security teams to identify risks early and respond faster.

In the evolving cloud landscape, security teams face a pivotal decision: Should you consolidate security tools for efficiency and simplicity, or deploy specialized point solutions for deeper protection? The answer isn’t just about technology—it’s about strategy, risk management, and long-term resilience. This session will guide you through: · The core principles of cloud security architecture and why the consolidation vs. specialization debate matters · The tradeoffs between unified platforms and best-of-breed solutions—from cost and complexity to security effectiveness · A framework for evaluating your organization’s needs to build a scalable, future-proof security approach Leave with actionable insights to make informed security decisions and craft a strategy that aligns with your cloud maturity, risk appetite, and operational priorities.

Key Topics:

• Ransomware, phishing, and advanced persistent threats (APTs).
• Optimizing operations and improving security through Orchestration and Automation.
• Understanding the impact of AI and IoT on security vulnerabilities.

Why It Matters:
Staying informed about the latest threats helps leaders anticipate and prepare for risks that can disrupt operations.

While threat actors constantly adapt and evolve their techniques, the tactics they employ remain limited and unchanging. A CISO with an understanding of modern attack trends can hone their focus on enduring tactics, rather than ever-changing techniques, to reverse the adversarial advantage and enable the business to better anticipate and defend against threat actors. Join this session to examine: Modern attack trends and real-world individual attacks Understanding the motives of threat actors to craft effective security protocols and playbooks Increasing visibility to make better informed decisions.

In this session, we’ll explore AI’s transformative role in modernizing risk and compliance programs for the future. From automating repetitive, manual tasks to enhancing the accuracy of risk assessments, AI enables organizations to proactively identify vulnerabilities and streamline compliance workflows. More than just a tool for efficiency, AI elevates GRC programs by providing actionable insights, enabling real-time decision-making, and fostering a proactive risk culture. By integrating AI into their strategies, CISOs and security leaders can future-proof their organizations while ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory landscapes.

Modern Privileged Access Management (PAM) has been defined as an evolution in identity and user management for the most sensitive accounts within an organization. As we look forward to the future of PAM, we realize that the discipline is expanding to manage and mitigate not only privileged access, but also assets, accounts, and attacks against modern identity security threats. In this presentation, we will explore the journey to a successful PAM implantation and what mitigation strategies you should consider as a defense for your organization.​

This presentation examines how artificial intelligence’s exponential growth in capability – driven by expanding neural networks, refined training methodologies, and unprecedented access to data – is transforming cybersecurity. Drawing from Check Point’s experience, we’ll explore how these same factors – more comprehensive threat data, improved training techniques, and increasingly sophisticated models – are revolutionizing threat detection and response. As AI systems process more security telemetry and learn from wider attack patterns, their defensive capabilities grow proportionally. Attendees will gain crucial insights into this accelerating technological shift, understanding why staying informed about AI advancements is no longer optional but essential for modern cybersecurity practitioners.
