"Are AI agents worth the hype?

In this talk, we’ll explore the tangible impact of AI agents in cybersecurity, focusing on how they can be used to automate proactive security workflows at scale.

AI agents can be used to augment traditional human-driven processes to identify, assess, and remediate vulnerabilities. We’ll highlight real world case studies to show where AI agents excel, where they fall short, and lessons I've learned along the way.

We'll also discuss the technical challenges of implementing agentic security solutions, from managing hallucinations, building human-in-the-loop workflows, to integrating agents with existing security datasets for improved performance. We’ll also discuss the broader implications for security teams -- how AI-driven automation is shifting the role of human analysts and changing the way organizations approach cyber resilience."
