The rapid advancement of AI is reshaping the cybersecurity landscape, empowering both attackers and defenders in an accelerating contest for the frontier. As AI-enabled threats grow in sophistication and scale, defenders face mounting pressure to keep pace, raising urgent questions about how organisations, industries, and nations should respond.

This panel brings together leading AI companies and cyber practitioners to examine the evolving dynamics of AI-driven offence and defence. The discussion will explore how AI labs are embedding security into models and agents, how national and international coordination strategies may need to adapt, and what the AI arms race means for governance and cybersecurity.
