Venue: SICW A (Level 3, Heliconia 3404)

Format: Closed Door Event (By Invitation Only)

AI is reshaping cybersecurity across three dimensions: creating new cyber risks as AI systems become embedded across organizations; giving cyber criminals new ways to automate, scale and enhance attacks; and allowing defenders to detect, respond to and build resilience against evolving threats.

This session will examine how organizations can capture the benefits of AI while managing the cybersecurity risks that come with its adoption and scale. More specifically, participants will explore how organizations can use AI to strengthen cyber defence, while addressing new vulnerabilities and preparing for AI-enabled cybercrime. The discussion will focus on the controls, practices and partnerships needed to enable secure and responsible AI adoption. The session will address the following critical questions:

  • How can organizations capture the benefits of AI while managing its cyber risks at scale?

  • How is AI shifting the balance between cyber attackers and defenders?

  • What new cyber risks emerge as AI systems act autonomously, access data and interact with other systems?

  • How is AI reshaping cybercrime, from the scale and speed of attacks to the business models that enable them?

  • How can we safeguard the AI transition and ensure a secure, trusted AI economy at scale?
