In the unlit corridors of the network, threats move faster than policy can follow.

Every login is a test of trust. Every packet, a possibility.

    SANS AI Cybersecurity Summit Spring 2027

You don’t need another reminder that AI is moving fast. You need to know what security teams are doing about it.

The SANS AI Cybersecurity Summit brings practitioners together to share the latest lessons from their work: what they’re testing, what’s working, and where they’re changing course.

Through technical talks, candid discussions, and hands-on workshops, explore how teams are putting AI to work in security, securing AI systems, and investigating emerging threats. You’ll leave with relevant ideas to bring back to your team and peers to keep learning from as the field evolves.

“The Summit was incredibly insightful, bridging the gap between theoretical AI and practical cybersecurity execution. The focus on both offensive and defensive AI capabilities is exactly what the industry needs right now.” — Khaled Ahmed Mossad

    This is a critical information-sharing and educational experience, and certainly among the best that SANS hosts. I’d recommend this summit for anyone involved with AI.

    The workshop I selected was excellent, with a strong focus on practical labs, and I walked away feeling much more equipped to handle upcoming challenges in machine learning security.
