Acknowledging the rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in recent years, Help AG, a leading information security services, consultancy and solutions provider in the Middle East, is set to host its flagship Security Spotlight Forum in Dubai and Abu Dhabi next week.
The event, themed ‘AI and Machine Learning in Cybersecurity’ will take place on June 25 in Dubai and on June 26 in Abu Dhabi.
Help AG’s vendor partners, Infoblox, F5 Networks, Fortinet, Symantec and Splunk, will deliver information-packed sessions giving attendees comprehensive insight into how they are powering their next-generation security platforms through the application of AI and machine learning.
“AI is no longer just in the realm of science fiction. Attackers have begun using it to aid malware creation, automate and scale their attacks, exploit social engineering, and enhance the detection evasion capabilities of their malicious code,” explained Nicolai Solling, CTO at Help AG. “Security is an arms race and organisations simply cannot afford to overlook AI’s application to cyberdefence. We understand this may appear to be a daunting challenge for in-house IT teams, so we invite IT professionals to attend our event for the chance to rapidly update themselves on the latest trends, threats and technologies in this revolutionary field of cybersecurity.”
The event will feature an in-depth look into the practical implementations and use-cases of AI in cybersecurity by Mr Solling and Dr Aleksandar Valjarevic, Head of Solution Architecture, Help AG, followed by presentations by experts from each of the participating vendors on the following topics:
- Infoblox: Both good and bad network flows start with a DNS request – machine learning powers the detection
- F5 Networks: Securing multi-cloud infrastructure with machine learning and AI using F5 Advanced WAF
- Fortinet: The platform is the product and it is powered by ML and AI
- Symantec: AI and machine learning make threat detection smart – in network and on the endpoint
- Splunk: Data speaks to you – machine learning makes you understand
“As we embark on digital transformation, your organisation will not operate IT, but IT will operate your organisation, making the requirement for cybersecurity capabilities greater than ever before,” Mr Solling added. “If you are unsure of how to do this in the face of highly motivated cyberattackers, you need to work with organisations such as Help AG that have built their entire business around helping organisations always stay secure and a step ahead. There’s no better opportunity for you to get an in-depth view of just how to leverage AI and ML to strengthen the security posture of your organisation than by attending our Security Spotlight Forum.”
The events will be held at the Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi Beach Resort and Marina, Dubai and Jumeirah at Etihad Towers, Abu Dhabi.
