Why AI Will Rewrite the Cybersecurity Playbook
Hosted by Akamai
AI has been a part of the cybersecurity landscape – powering both attacks and solutions – for more than a decade. But the advent of GenAI – tools that can generate realistic language, voice, images, and video – is poised to dramatically alter the balance of power and reshape the cybersecurity landscape. Attackers are just beginning to use GenAI to build more sophisticated and dynamic attacks, and the risks for enterprises are just starting to emerge. As AI becomes increasingly central to both offense and defense, how will you prepare your organization to stay ahead of these evolving threats?
Join this session to learn:
- Why strengthening defenses will require both AI and non-AI tools
- How attackers are manipulating LLMs
- What are the emerging AI risks for enterprises
