AI is changing the threat landscape faster than many security programs can adapt. Adversaries are using AI to accelerate operations, continuously modify techniques, and operate at a velocity that challenges traditional approaches to threat detection and response. For CISOs, the question is no longer whether AI belongs in the security program, but how to operationalize it in ways that materially improve outcomes—and keep those capabilities effective as threats continue to evolve.

In this CISO panel, security leaders will move beyond the AI hype to share concrete examples of how they are retooling threat detection and response. The discussion will examine where AI is creating measurable improvements in speed, scale, and effectiveness; how organizations are keeping models, detections, and workflows current; and where established operating models may need to change.

Panelists will also tackle the organizational realities that can slow progress—from legacy environments and a preference for reliability and stability to the challenge of introducing new capabilities without creating unacceptable operational risk.

This will be a practical conversation among CISOs about what they are changing today, what is actually working, and how security organizations can use AI to achieve better outcomes at significantly greater velocity.
