The Agentic Defense System: AI-Powered Detection and Response

About this session

Cybersecurity teams and their defense infrastructure, whether fully in-house or managed by outsourced partners, are under constant pressure to handle a flood of alerts, sprawling attack surfaces, and limited staff. Artificial intelligence promises to transform our collective cyber defenses from reactive to proactive. By deploying specialized AI agents, organizations are automating triage, accelerating complex investigations, and executing autonomous, real-time responses. This panel will examine how leading organizations are weaving AI agents throughout their software stacks and human workflows to create a next-generation, agent-powered cybersecurity landscape. Panelists will share real-world results, discuss how to balance this new wave of automation with human oversight, and explore the cutting-edge tools that make an autonomous, agentic defense system possible.
