A Timely and Necessary Discussion
A Timely and Necessary Discussion
This webinar addresses one of the most pressing challenges in cybersecurity today. AI is transforming the field, but its misuse and unintended risks must be acknowledged. Events like this play a crucial role in fostering informed discussions and proactive security measures.
One possible enhancement for future webinars could be a segment on AI governance and regulation, exploring how policy frameworks can guide ethical and secure AI implementation in cybersecurity. Will CyberAgent consider a follow-up session focused specifically on AI regulation and responsible innovation?
All in all, this looks a well-organized and valuable event, and I look forward to seeing how its insights shape future cybersecurity strategies.
