About this session

For two decades the answer to most security problems has been to patch faster. This SASIG webinar looks at why AI is breaking that model. Exploitation timelines have shrunk from days to hours, zero-days make up a growing share of attacks, and many AI-related risks have no patch at all.

Broadcom's Dick O'Brien looks at how attackers are using AI to speed up reconnaissance, exploit discovery, malware and ransomware, and at the exposure from shadow AI, over-privileged agents and AI infrastructure. Using real-world examples, the session argues for tracking mean time to mitigate rather than mean time to patch, and shares practical strategies for rapid containment and resilience. It's chaired by Ben Peet, UK/Europe CISO at Standard Chartered Bank.

It's free and open to everyone, brought to you by Arrow, and counts for 1 CPD point if you attend live.

Who it’s for

CISOs, security leaders and IT teams who want to rethink patch-first security for AI-driven threats.
