Artificial intelligence
In this new episode of NXT Talk, we explore how artificial intelligence is transforming cybersecurity, but this time on the defender side.

As cyberattacks increasingly leverage AI to become faster and more effective, cybersecurity teams can also use the technology to detect threats, automate certain tasks and focus their expertise on the incidents that require human intervention.

How is AI transforming cybersecurity practices? How far can defense operations be automated? And how can organizations strike the right balance between automation, human oversight and the protection of sensitive data?

To explore these questions, two experts share their experience and perspectives:

· Fabrice CROMPIN, Senior Solution Consultant, Palo Alto Networks

· Yvon BOUTRY, Security Infrastructure Department Manager, Proximus NXT

A discussion to better understand the new challenges of cybersecurity in the age of AI, and the complementary role that artificial intelligence and human expertise can play in addressing increasingly complex threats.
