#1702698: Harnessing Agentic AI: The Strategic Approach for Modern Security Teams

Description: Tightening budgets, and the persistent shortage of skilled IT security professionals, are increasingly edging organizations toward agentic AI solutions to help pick up the slack. However, security leaders must carefully determine which tasks can be safely handed over to AI agents without introducing new risks.

This webinar explores how emerging AI tools function in security environments, and how they can be reliably deployed to maximize operational efficiency, as well as overall security posture.
