The Changing Role of a Security Leader and What It Means To You

As the world of information technology continues to change, so does the role of the security leader. Whether you're a CISO, Director of Security, or someone aspiring for such a position, you should consider how the current trends in IT and business affect your professional journey.

Does your current approach to security leadership set you up for success? Attend this session to learn how experienced CISOs:

• Align their security strategy to the business it aims to support
• Ask the right questions to excel in challenging situations
• Gain support for their efforts from non-security stakeholders
• Use technical and communication skills to their advantage

Those of us whose professional roots are grounded in technology often look at enterprise defenses from the perspective of the threats. While understanding the relationship between attacks and defenses is important, it's no longer sufficient. Attend this session to learn how to think about the role of a modern security leader to succeed in today's business environment.

Your Journey to the GenAI-DFIR Era Starts Today

How exactly is Generative AI (GenAI) changing the way Forensicators & Hunters work today?

In this talk Jess Garcia will answer that question by presenting everything you need to know to integrate GenAI in your everyday DFIR tasks and get ready for this new era.

Jess will cover the latest and most important concepts, tools, projects & resources you need to know related to GenAI for DFIR, he will describe how to apply them to everyday DFIR tasks and will elaborate on AI-Agents (orchestrators capable of coordinating data sources, LLMs and Tools) and its related standards (MCP, A2A, etc.), the fastest developing AI operational scheme today to address many of the complex analysis tasks that Forensicators perform today.

Jess will practically demonstrate how an AI-Agent DFIR Co-Pilot can be easily used to process and analyze forensic artifacts, and how AI-Agents can autonomously solve many of the challenging tasks that we face in our investigations today.
