Driving Autonomy and Automation to Maximize Security Defenses

11:00 – 12:30 CET | Virtual

Event Overview

Enterprises today face nonstop attempts to overwhelm or bypass their cybersecurity defenses.

With the volume and sophistication of attacks constantly increasing, many organizations are seeking greater defensive automation, including via autonomous security operations centers and more efficient analysts.

The promise of automating defenses is that it immediately blocks more attacks outright, freeing defenders to focus on responding quickly and decisively so they can counter more serious, emerging threats. Greater autonomation and system autonomy can also help valuable SOC analysts and cybersecurity personnel avoid overload and burnout – be they in-house or working at a managed security service provider.

To deliver on this vision, what are optimal and achievable strategies for using greater amounts of automation? What processes or tasks are suitable for automation? 

DISCUSSION POINTS

  • To what degree can autonomy and automation be effectively used today?

  • Why do some organizations resist automation and what are effective strategies for driving cultural change?

  • How is AI altering offense and defense?
