“I’m Sorry Dave, I’m Afraid I Can’t Do That” – Is Agentic AI the Solution for Scalable Cyber Defence?
Description
2025 saw an unprecedented increase in serious cyber breaches in the UK. In parallel, the adoption of AI capabilities by threat actors is contributing to it being ever more difficult for defenders to protect their systems, as the speed, scale and sophistication of cyber attack campaigns increases at an ever advancing pace. The panel will explore the adoption and integration of Agentic AI capabilities by the cyber defender in order to try to level the playing field and regain the initiative by allowing AI to automatically harden systems and respond to threats.
