AI is rewriting the rules of security—but is it our greatest ally or our most dangerous adversary?
Join SANS Certified Instructor Simon Vernon and Microsoft CVP Kelly Bissell for a rare fireside chat that will cut through the noise and get to the heart of one of cybersecurity’s biggest debates: Where is AI good—and where is it dangerously bad—for security and defense?
Together, Simon and Kelly will explore both sides of the conversation: the ways AI is powering fraud detection, accelerating defense, and reshaping industries—and the darker realities of bias, privacy erosion, job displacement, and adversaries wielding AI with frightening precision. Expect candid insights into how practitioners can harness AI responsibly, safeguard against its misuse, and influence the future of cyber policy before poor legislation takes hold.
This won’t be a lecture. It’s an unfiltered discussion where industry leaders challenge each other, spark new thinking, and invite the audience to weigh in. Whether you’re an experienced defender or just starting your cyber journey, you’ll leave with practical takeaways—and a front-row view into how two of the field’s top minds see the future unfolding.
Don’t miss the conversation everyone will be talking about at SANS Network Security.
