Oct. 14, 2026 – AI, Cyber Recovery, and Data Protection: Separating Signal from Hype

AI is reshaping the cyber threat landscape faster than most organizations can adapt, and the pressure on IT and security leaders to keep up or get ahead has never been higher. But what does meaningful AI adoption look like in data protection? How do you separate the signal from the hype?

In this session, we’ll look at how AI is being put to work across real infrastructure environments today, and how that may impact how your organization thinks about resilience, recovery, and risk.

We’ll discuss:
• What AI-powered threats look like in practice, and why traditional recovery assumptions may be inadequate
• Where AI does and doesn’t deliver genuine value in threat detection, anomaly identification, and recovery automation
• How to set realistic expectations with your team and suggestions on taking the lead to build a secure framework for AI adoption
