How a continuous feedback loop and autonomous testing of controls can identify vulnerabilities, harden defenses, and improve the outcomes of cyber security programs

Cyber security is more than a product – it’s a state of continuous improvement. It’s data-centric, and the influx of new information can make it hard to make sense of a constantly changing situation. In environments where the physical and digital worlds converge – and safety and sustainability are top of mind – keeping all aspects of your organization up and running drives you to achieve cyber stability no matter what.

During this session, you will hear how two innovative and entrepreneurial companies, Hexagon and Darktrace, work together globally to achieve these goals. The collaboration started when leaders from both organizations talked about their vision and applications of autonomous technology, allowing data to see the world as it really is, achieving better decisions, and automating and measuring effectiveness. Hear how Information Security Officers at both firms are exploring predictive cyber security solutions, allowing cyber AI to make an even more significant difference in the future.
Agenda
  • Protecting and securing citizens, nations, facilities, and data with autonomous decision making
  • Applying continuous AI feedback systems to improve outcomes and harden security systems
  • Simulating real-world scenarios to understand attack paths adversaries may leverage against critical assets
  • Fusing the physical and digital worlds to create intelligent security for infrastructure
