Dinner Topic:

AI is changing the speed and scale of cyber threats, forcing incident response teams to operate in an environment where attackers can move faster and compromise more systems before traditional defenses catch up. At the same time, security leaders are increasingly turning to AI-powered tools to accelerate detection, investigation, and response, helping offset talent shortages and resource constraints. This session explores how organizations are adapting their incident response strategies to account for emerging AI-driven risks, while rethinking the technologies, partnerships, and operating models needed to stay ahead. Attendees will gain practical insights into leveraging AI, strengthening information-sharing relationships, and building more proactive response capabilities in a threat landscape defined by uncertainty and speed.
