Featuring Adam Basedow, CTO, Cybersecurity Services, Vectra Corporation (An Ensign Company)
Australia's security community has embraced AI as a force multiplier — accelerating detection, reducing manual workloads, and enabling analysts to shift their focus from alert triage to strategic decisions. Yet the same capabilities that make AI powerful in security operations also introduce a layer of governance complexity that many organisations are only beginning to grapple with.
In this video, Adam explores how AI is reshaping security from reactive alert handling to proactive, contextualised risk management, why human oversight and clear guardrails must keep pace with automation, and what it means for boards and executives to treat AI not just as an operational tool but as a source of strategic business risk — one that demands the same governance and accountability as any other critical system.
