Learn what it really takes to make substantive AI progress. Tune into this talk to learn the seven tenets of enterprise transformation in the AI era which underscore both the current data situation of many companies and how to leverage this technology for the best results. 

1. Despite the long-standing hype, AI currently only includes natural language processing, not understanding. 
2. To make the best use of the AI, enterprises must build a modern knowledge foundation, i.e., data that’s logically connected, contextualized and extensible with the help of shared, interlinked, symbiotic graph data models. 
3. Organizations can’t be data mature if they’re not in data sharing mode whenever possible or pushing the data sharing envelope. Holding onto data doesn’t make sense if you’re not sharing with the partners who need what that data can provide. 
4. Transformation doesn’t matter if you’re not providing enterprise-wide and even boundary-crossing transparency in the process.
5. It doesn’t make sense to buy “AI products” without having the ability first to feed the AI the best, high quality, relevant, disambiguated data relevant to your business. 
6. Most of the AI software providers out there aren’t focused on helping you solve your data problems.
7. Most enterprises have huge, unresolved data problems. Therefore, most enterprises won’t benefit all that much from AI until they move up the data lifecycle management learning curve.

This talk will explore what effective transformation looks like in the age of AI and provide best practice guidance from organizations in leading industries.

While exploits against known vulnerabilities remain common, advanced campaigns use a variety of tactics to compromise web applications. An abundance of tools claiming to address these challenges has left many security teams unclear as to where to focus their attention. On top of this, security teams are worried about how to address increased usage of genAI in development, and attacks that leverage AI. Join John Grady and Melinda Marks as they discuss recent research on the application protection market and modern application security to help security teams solve the challenges they face.

Trends in Application Security and Increasing AI Adoption

Generative AI (GenAI) could contribute $2.6 trillion to $4.4 trillion annually to the global economy according to consulting firm McKinsey, but achieving business goals requires using GenAI in a trustworthy and secure manner. As enterprise business units pour resources to drive innovation, security teams need to avoid compliance violations and data loss. Security for GenAI is a many-layered cake requiring security teams to consider everything from the (sensitive) data informing the model to prompt responses that might result in (sensitive) data exfiltration. Join Todd Thiemann as he discusses recent research on data resilience and data loss prevention in the context of GenAI.

Data Security & GenAI Infrastructure: Facilitating Innovation While Avoiding Compromises

The introduction of AI has created an imperative for the transformation of virtually every business system.
