Traditional cybersecurity operating models are struggling to keep pace amidst a sharp increase in the volume and sophistication of cyber threats. With the threat of AI-powered attacks growing, geopolitical tensions rising, and dependence on digital channels deepening, modernising cybersecurity systems is more essential for banks than ever. At the same time, agentic and autonomous AI-powered tools present banks with a wealth of new opportunities to enhance their information security, enhance contextual threat detection, and minimise incident response times.
This roundtable will discuss how banks can effectively harness AI to strengthen their cyber resilience postures while navigating the technical and governance challenges required to deploy agents safely and effectively at scale.
Attend to gain insights on:
- Transforming resilience through AI-enhanced IAM, data security and contextual threat analysis
- Optimising investigation and incident response times to reduce MTTR
- Successfully countering the rising threat of AI-powered cyber attacks
- Embedding governance into agentic workflows to deploying agents effectively at scale
Welcome and participant introductions
Discussion:
- The growing volume and rising sophistication of cyber-attacks: where are existing SIEM systems and operating models struggling to keep pace
- Beyond rule-based detection: how can agentic AI enable banks to move beyond signal detection to achieve contextual threat analysis and adaptive security?
- The battle of machines: how can AI tools help to counter and mitigate the rising threat of AI-powered cyber-attacks?
- Where can AI help support teams to optimise investigation and incident response actions, and how should human-in-the-loop escalation be enforced effectively?
- Ensuring data integrity and security: what role can AI play in preventing data leakages and safeguarding data privacy?
- Levelling-up IAM processes: where can AI provide real advancements to identity management and enhance bank control over access to sensitive information?
- Embedding governance at scale: as agents are increasingly employed, how can banks ensure transparency, accountability and regulatory confidence?
