The AI Agent Advantage: Defense, Privacy, and the Future of Cybersecurity

This panel explores the transformative impact of AI agents on cybersecurity defense, particularly in the national security and defense sectors. AI agents offer unprecedented opportunities for proactive threat detection, automated incident response, and continuous learning in real time. But they carry significant legal and policy risks, too. This discussion goes beyond the headlines to plumb the practical applications of agentic AI in bolstering defenses and addresses agentic AI's challenges and limitations, such as data privacy, bias, and the nature of human-AI collaboration in shaping a resilient and secure digital future. Panelists with deep experience in the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, and the intelligence community will join industry leaders for a lively and informative discussion.

What you will learn:

• How AI agents will impact cybersecurity. 
• What industry and government can do to address the data privacy, governance, and other concerns related to the deployment of AI agents. 
• How these developments will intersect with cybersecurity law and policy.
