Second Session @ 4:00 PM
Title: Panel - The AI Arms Race: Offense, Defense, and the Future of Cyber
This panel will be moderated by Dave Gerleman, guests will include Jigar Shah,... More guests to be announced!
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming cybersecurity on both sides of the battlefield. Attackers are leveraging AI to automate phishing campaigns, generate convincing deepfakes, develop adaptive malware, and accelerate reconnaissance at unprecedented speed and scale. At the same time, defenders are deploying AI-driven threat detection, automated response platforms, intelligent security operations, and autonomous analysis tools to counter increasingly sophisticated threats. The result is an emerging “AI vs AI” cyber war where machines are beginning to battle machines in real time.
This panel brings together a diverse group of AI and cybersecurity leaders, practitioners, and industry experts to examine how organizations can prepare for this rapidly evolving threat landscape. Panelists will discuss the current state of offensive and defensive AI capabilities, the risks associated with autonomous AI agents, the growing challenges around trust and identity, and the practical realities of integrating AI into enterprise security operations.
This session will provide actionable insights into how AI is reshaping modern cyber defense strategies, what skills and governance models organizations need to develop, and where security teams should focus as the next generation of AI-powered threats continues to evolve.
