About the Webinar

This session explores the dual aspects of AI agents in security: their role as security enablers and the necessity to secure the agents themselves. As organizations increasingly deploy AI agents for tasks ranging from threat detection to automated response systems, understanding both dimensions becomes crucial.


The session will also cover practical implementations, current best practices, and emerging challenges in this rapidly evolving landscape. Participants will gain insights into balancing the powerful capabilities of AI agents while maintaining robust security controls to protect against potential vulnerabilities and attacks targeting the agents themselves.
This understanding is critical as organizations navigate the integration of AI agents into their security infrastructure while ensuring these tools don't become security liabilities.

Securing your AI Agents

This session by Paramanand Malik addresses critical security considerations for implementing and protecting Generative AI systems. We'll explore key vulnerabilities including prompt injection attacks, data poisoning, and model exploitation. Learn essential strategies for implementing robust authentication, ensuring data privacy, and maintaining model integrity.

Topics include secure API implementation, input validation, output filtering, and rate limiting. We'll discuss best practices for access control, monitoring AI behavior for anomalies, and preventing unauthorized model modifications. The session covers compliance requirements, ethical considerations, and frameworks for responsible AI deployment while maintaining the delicate balance between AI functionality and security controls.

Agentic AI for Security

Generative AI is revolutionizing cybersecurity by enabling faster, more intelligent threat detection and response. This session by Rupesh Bajaj explores how AI agents continuously monitor network patterns, analyze anomalies, and automate security responses in real-time. Learn how these systems can predict potential vulnerabilities, generate defensive strategies, and adapt to evolving threats. We'll examine practical applications including automated incident response, intelligent security orchestration, and proactive threat hunting.

The discussion will cover how GenAI tools can augment security teams, reduce false positives, and provide contextual threat intelligence, ultimately strengthening enterprise security posture while reducing response times and operational costs.
