Fortifying Cybersecurity in a World of AI

The cybersecurity challenges, both internal and external, facing organisations today are greater than ever before – a sophisticated threat landscape looking for any vulnerability in an increasingly complex environment, compounded by a lack of skilled professionals needed for effective threat detection and response.  And add to this an increasing number of regulatory requirements with substantial penalties for non-compliance.

The judicious use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be a key element in levelling the cyber playing field.  Today’s AI – Machine Learning, Generative, and Agentic - strategically deployed across multiple elements of a comprehensive cybersecurity platform, will provide the threat detection and response capability needed in this AI era.

Plan to be part of this engaging and informative event to learn how AI-driven solutions can help your organisation meet its business objectives in a challenging and evolving cybersecurity environment.

Fortinet Expert View

Whether on-premises, in the cloud or somewhere in between, the choice of technology shouldn’t be dictated by form factor or location.  This session will look at removing barriers between security domains to reduce complexity and improve security posture.

3:50 PM - 4:15 PMSecurely Solving the Hybrid Access Conundrum

Fortinet Expert View

Although the Work from Anywhere concept became part of the lexicon during Covid, it has been a challenge for organisations long before Covid.  This session will focus on how to deploy comprehensive and consistent security that is independent of the user’s location.

4:15 PM - 4:35 PMWhat’s in Your Security Operation Centre?

Fortinet Expert View
