SquareX
With employees spending most of their working hours on the browser, web attacks are one of the biggest attack vectors today. Yet, both enterprises and security vendors today aren't focused on securing the browser – a huge risk given that attackers can easily bypass Secure Web Gateways, SASE and SSE solutions.
This segment will demonstrate the importance of a browser-native solution, discuss the limitations of current solutions and how enterprises can better protect their employees from web attacks.

- DEF CON talk abstract
- Enterprise use cases for SquareX

- Blog on the Many Failures of Secure Web Gateways

Tanium
The recent CrowdStrike outage and subsequent disruption tested organizations' resiliency and confidence as the world went offline. It served as a reminder that in an increasingly technology-dependent world, things will go wrong – but security leaders can plan accordingly and leverage emerging technologies to help minimize the damage.
In this interview, Tanium's Vice President of Product Marketing Vivek Bhandari explains how AI and automation can help with remediation and even prevent similar outages from happening in the future, and breaks down the future of Autonomous Endpoint Management (AEM) as the solution for continuous cyber resilience in the face of disruption.

Swimlane and GenAI
Join Swimlane CISO, Mike Lyborg and Security Weekly's Mandy Logan as they cut through the AI peanut butter! While Generative AI is the not-so-new hot topic, it's also not the first time the cybersecurity industry has embraced emerging technology that can mimic human actions. Security automation and its ability to take action on behalf of humans have paved the way for generative AI to be trusted (within reason). The convergence and maturity of these technologies now have the potential to revolutionize how SecOps functions while force-multiplying SOC teams.
