Join thousands of ISC2 members, associates and candidates on July 8-9 for a two-day virtual event examining the cybersecurity opportunities, challenges and considerations posed by the rapid growth of AI usage across organizations.
Join us for two days of expert sessions and earn up to 5.5 CPE credits while looking in depth at how AI and cybersecurity are intersecting and changing many aspects of day-to-day security operations.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming cybersecurity by enabling faster, smarter and more proactive defenses against evolving digital threats. By analyzing vast amounts of data in real time, AI tools and systems can potentially detect anomalies, identify potential breaches and respond to incidents at far greater speed than using human analysis alone. From automating threat detection to enhancing decision-making in organizations, AI is reshaping how businesses protect their networks, data and users. However, the rapid adoption of AI is also raising a range of additional considerations around regulatory compliance, best practice, ethics and trust.
The ISC2 Spotlight sessions will discuss the ethical considerations surrounding AI usage, its impact on data privacy and emerging applications of AI in cybersecurity. We’ll also examine how ethical and malicious actors are leveraging AI, with a focus on risk management, AI-driven defense and the latest strategies to stay ahead of cyberthreats.
Key Sessions
The ISC2 Spotlight on AI runs from 10am-1pm ET each day, with three sessions a day to view:
Keeping the Human Touch as Agentic AI Impacts Your Security Organization
- Speakers from IBS Software, Deloitte Canda and Palo Alto Networks will examine the implications of Agentic AI automating key processes associated with your security organization, such as how the lack of human supervision brings risk of unwanted outcomes. They will examine which security functions can be effectively automated with agentic AI; predict where this technology will go in the future; and recommend where you should continue to maintain and assert manual control.
Guardrails Before Greenlights: Securing Data in the Era of Agentic AI
- Before deploying AI agents in a live environment, it’s critical to lay down the guardrails that keep your data—and your organization—secure. Sponsored by Netwrix, this session will cover both open-source tools and practical organizational strategies to help you clean up and classify data, set access boundaries, and ensure AI agents only operate where and how they should.
Behind the Prompt: Exposing and Mitigating the Top LLM Vulnerabilities
- As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly embedded into enterprise products, critical infrastructure and autonomous systems, attackers are racing to find and exploit weaknesses in these new and rapidly developing platforms. From prompt injection and data leakage to model manipulation and autonomous misuse, these vulnerabilities aren’t hypothetical – they’re already in the wild. The Technical Lead and the Program Manager of the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications will walk attendees through the most impactful and emerging threats to LLM-integrated systems.
The Role of Email Security in an AI World
- Faced with improvements in email security measures, cybercriminals are leveraging new and more advanced attack methods – namely AI – that have the potential to bypass or overcome existing protections. In this discussion led by Cyber Unicorns, we'll cover how your security team and organization can identify and prepare for the event of an AI-based attack, to supercharge any email security defense strategy and stay ahead of cybercriminals.
AI Safety and Security: Protecting AI from Users While Also Protecting Users from AI
- As organizations adopt Gen AI, the pressure to innovate risks outpacing security, creating operational risks. Insecure implementations can elevate the risk of data breaches, system manipulation and critical loss. Unsafe AI, however, poses a different threat: reputational damage, harm to your users and a loss of trust. Sponsored by Cobalt, this deep dive will examine how AI safety and security go hand in hand. Discover how to defend against attacks while safeguarding your users and your brand.
The Ethics of AI: Carving a Principled Path for Your Organization
- AI has opened a Pandora’s box of ethical concerns regarding its use, its impartiality its ability to operate unsupervised and more. This session, with a panel drawn from the University of Rome, Loyola Law School and the Global Council for Responsible AI, will seek to answer these and other difficult conundrums, as cybersecurity professionals continue to examine the ethical implications of using AI in their organizations.
