How to Scale AI Without Multiplying Your Risk
Wednesday, October 21
11:05am

AI is accelerating both innovation and risk, automating decisions faster than security teams can validate. This session helps CIOs and IT leaders close that gap. See how one model, uniting intelligence, automation, and remediation, turns AI risk into something leadership can govern: prioritize real exposure over noise, automate remediation instead of ticket queues, and keep pace with AI-speed threats without slowing delivery.
Speaker: Brian Gracely, Senior Director of Product Strategy
