RSAC Key Takeaways


RSAC Conference brings the global cybersecurity community together under this year’s theme, “The Power of Community Starts with You,” emphasizing how shared insight and coordinated action drive progress. As AI accelerates innovation across email, cloud, and collaboration platforms, security leaders are focused on turning community dialogue into practical defense that protects people and data.

Amid bold announcements and emerging technologies, one question stands out: what actually reduces risk? From coordinated disruption efforts like Operation Endgame to candid conversations about AI threat realities, the emphasis is on measurable outcomes. Grounded in Proofpoint’s human- and agent-centric approach, our panel will explore how organizations can translate industry insight into real-world risk reduction across people, agents, and data.

Join this Power Series as our panel of experts discusses:

  • Community-driven themes shaping cybersecurity
  • AI threat realities and governance priorities
  • Human and agent-centric risk reduction strategies

AI Data Governance


Generative AI, enterprise copilots, and agentic AI are transforming how organizations create, access, and share data. But as AI becomes embedded across email, collaboration platforms, and business applications, many security teams lack visibility into how sensitive information is being exposed, learned, or reused. Employees are experimenting with AI tools, often outside of formal governance frameworks, while AI systems operate with unprecedented speed and scale. Meanwhile, the average cost of a data breach is nearing $4.5 million, and regulatory pressure continues to grow.

A modern AI data governance strategy helps organizations reduce risk while enabling innovation by aligning people, processes, and technology around responsible data use.

Join this Power Series as our panel of experts discusses:

  • Key data risks introduced by AI
  • Building an effective AI governance framework
  • Protecting sensitive data across AI workflows

Staying Ahead of Insider Risk


Insider risk has become one of the most urgent challenges facing security leaders today. From data theft by departing employees to sabotage and espionage, insider-driven incidents can quickly escalate into breaches, regulatory scrutiny, and reputational damage. According to the 2025 Proofpoint Voice of the CISO report, close to 40% of global CISOs identify insider threats as their top cybersecurity threat over the next 12 months.

The question isn’t whether insider risk exists—it’s whether your program is mature enough to get ahead of it.

Join this Power Series as our panel of experts discusses:

  • How AI is redefining the insider threat landscape
  • The importance of understanding motive – and how to combine those insights with technical indicators
  • Best practices and approaches to shift your insider risk program from reactive to proactive
