Navigating Cyber Risk in the Age of GenAI: Practical Approaches to Using AI in Cybersecurity

5:30pm – 8:00pm PT | San Francisco, CA

Event Overview

Organizations need to upgrade their defenses now to tackle an entirely new paradigm for cybersecurity in which GenAI is used by attackers, defenders and users.

In this new world, attackers scale offensive tactics using AI-powered automation, while vendors deploy AI to improve and optimize defense. Meanwhile, users implement commercial GenAI tools in their everyday work, inadvertently exposing data to unauthorized third parties and creating compliance risks.

So what’s a higher priority – protecting from the challenges of AI, or leveraging AI to make your team more productive? It’s not an either/or situation – you need to be doing both: taking a proactive approach to blocking attackers AND utilizing the opportunity to increase automation of your defenses with GenAI, while putting appropriate guardrails in place to enable secure onboarding and usage of GenAI.

Attend this roundtable event on the cybersecurity challenges and solutions around GenAI implementation and usage.

The browser is the main enterprise workspace. It’s where most of your employees spend the majority of their time. LayerX monitors and governs all browsing activity, providing the highest level of security to enterprise data and resources. We created LayerX so enterprises can regain control over their resources while still leveraging all the production potential the web offers.

IONIX was founded on a unique insight into the nature of cybersecurity risk. The idea is simple, but powerful. While organizations focus only on assets they own – the reality is that ownership is irrelevant to threat actors. They seek a vulnerability that provides an attack vector into your environment, whether it’s attacking your internet-facing asset directly, or exploiting your exposed digital supply chain connection.

Today 20% of exploitable attack surface risks originate in the digital supply chain. As enterprises become increasingly reliant on third party web services, vendors, and platforms – their digital supply chain grows, and so does their risk.
