AI is reshaping the cyber threat landscape faster than most organizations can adapt, and the pressure on IT and security leaders to “do something with AI” has never been higher. But what does meaningful AI adoption actually look like in data protection and recovery? And how do you separate the signal from the hype? In this session, 11:11 Systems will share how AI is being put to work across real infrastructure environments today, and what that means for how you think about resilience, recovery, and risk.
We’ll discuss:
• What AI-powered threats actually look like in practice, and why traditional recovery assumptions no longer hold
• Where AI delivers genuine value in detection, anomaly identification, and recovery automation, and where it doesn’t
• How 11:11 is building AI capabilities into data protection solutions you can use now
• How to set realistic expectations internally and build a framework for AI adoption that keeps human judgment where it belongs
This isn’t a session about what AI might do someday. It’s about how to think differently, act strategically, and leverage the right partnerships to stay ahead of an evolving threat landscape, starting now.
Speaker: Justin Nordeste, Sr Product Manager, Data Protection
