Securing the Future with Artificial Intelligence<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On 29 February, 2024, over 320 business leaders and security professionals attended the two-session summit, all with the same goal in mind: to learn how to protect the AI system against targeted cyber attacks, as well as important techniques and frameworks for agile defence against AI-driven threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
