Agenda

  • 12:00PM-1:00PM
    Registration & Networking Lunch
  • 1:00PM-1:45PM
    Opening Keynote: From Humans to Autonomous AI—New Risks in the Agentic Workspace

    Agentic AI is rewriting the rules of work and introducing new risks few organizations are prepared for. We'll explore the trends, innovations, and behavioral insights driving what comes next.

  • 1:45PM-2:15PM
    Agentic Collaboration Security: How AI Will Redefine How We Protect Humans & AI

    AI is accelerating attacks, overwhelming defenses built for human-paced threats. This session shows why agentic collaboration security is essential to scale protection across email, messaging, SaaS, and identities, using AI agents to detect, prioritize, explain, and respond autonomously before risk spreads across your organization.

  • 2:15PM-2:30PM
    Break
  • 2:30PM-3:00PM
    AI Changes the Rules: Protect and Govern Data Across Every Risk and Channel

    Data security and governance are urgent, but AI has outpaced most programs. Shadow AI, Copilot oversharing, and data sprawl are expanding exposure faster than security. Learn how to unify data posture, loss prevention, insider risk, AI data protection, and communications governance—and govern data wherever it lives, moves, or is communicated.

  • 3:00PM-3:30PM
    Agent Integrity: The Five Pillars of Securing Autonomous AI in the Enterprise 

    AI agents are rewriting how enterprises operate, and security has no framework for governing what they do. This session makes the case for Agent Integrity as the organizing principle for autonomous AI security and lays out the path from where most organizations are today to where they need to be.

  • 3:30PM-5:00PM
    Event Social sponsored by Women Who Cyber
