September 27, 2023 @ 9:00 am – 10:00 am PDT



The “AI and cybersecurity” webinar is our fifth in the “Approachable AI” series. These webinars aim at decision-makers who approach AI from customer, product, and business perspectives. AI is technical, but we see technology as an enabler, not the primary purpose.

This time, we have a guest speaker, Jari Salomaa, Co-Founder and CEO of Valo Security. Jari and Mikko will cover AI’s impact on the cybersecurity landscape, security threats, and mitigations. The topic is of utmost importance, as 53% of organizations see Generative AI as a cybersecurity risk, and 38% act on it (McKinsey). We’ll present examples and gain valuable insights for decision-makers approaching AI from customer, product, and business perspectives. Technology is an enabler, and this webinar will show you how.

It was exciting to join the webinar to discuss the impacts of AI on the connected enterprise, B2B software landscape, and what it means to security and privacy.
