Weaponized Intelligence: Using AI to Fight AI in the Cybersecurity Arms Race

As AI-powered cyber threats evolve in sophistication, enterprise defenders are racing to adapt, leveraging the same technologies to detect, respond, and outmaneuver adversaries.
This info-packed panel brings together industry leaders from Netcraft, Straiker, Coalfire, DNS Filter and Gurucul to explore the emerging battleground where artificial intelligence is both the attacker and the defender.From large-scale phishing campaigns generated by LLMs to deepfake-fueled social engineering and autonomous malware, threat actors are increasingly deploying AI as an asymmetric force multiplier. In response, defenders are embedding AI across the cybersecurity stack to anticipate attack patterns, detect anomalies in real time, and automate incident response at unprecedented speed and scale.
Our expert panelists share frontline insights into how AI is being operationalized today to combat AI-driven threats, where human oversight still matters, and what the next 12–18 months look like as adversarial and defensive AI strategies continue to escalate.
Attendees will walk away with a clear understanding of how to future-proof their cybersecurity investments, the risks of relying solely on AI, and the collaborative role industry must play to maintain trust and resilience in a hyper-automated threat landscape.
