Public Sector security leaders don’t need more AI hype—they need operating models built for mission demands. As AI moves from copilots to autonomous agents, the biggest risk isn’t just adoption, it’s deploying AI with outdated assumptions about trust, oversight and readiness.
This session will highlight five critical mistakes organizations make when securing AI systems and applying AI to SecOps.
During this webinar, attendees will learn:
- Why traditional access controls fail against autonomous AI agents operating at machine speed
- How outdated oversight models create blind spots as AI takes on analyst-level decisions
- Where legacy trust assumptions break down when AI systems act without human-in-the-loop review
- What readiness actually requires before granting AI agents operational authority in the SOC
- How to close the gap between AI adoption speed and AI governance maturity
