In the AI era, security is fundamentally a data problem. As cyberattacks shift from human-operated to machine-scale autonomous agents, traditional security architectures have hit a breaking point, forced into a "fidelity trade-off" between spiraling costs and dangerous visibility gaps. Join us for the Cybersecurity Industry Forum to discover how Databricks is disrupting the legacy SIEM market with Lakewatch, the industry’s first open, agentic SIEM built on the security lakehouse. This 90-minute session explores how to “fight fire with fire” by deploying swarms of defensive AI agents to meet machine-speed attackers. We will dive into the architectural shift required to unify security, IT, and business data into a single, governed environment, eliminating the “ingestion tax” and enabling petabyte-scale detection and response at a fraction of the cost of legacy providers. Hear from security innovators and Lakewatch design partners who are moving beyond experimental AI to operationalize agentic security at scale. Learn how to leverage open formats (OCSF) and “Detection-as-Code” to build a proactive, high-velocity SOC that identifies threats in minutes, not days.

As the first wave of AI experimentation matures, leaders are facing a new bottleneck: the “Architectural Tax” of fragmented stacks. To move beyond universal foundation models and build production-grade AI applications, an interoperable foundation is essential. This foundation must unify governance, data and model choice to power high-frequency data and governed intelligence from a single location. This 90-minute Tech Industry Forum joins leaders from the top AI innovators to bridge the gap between AI ambition and operational reality. We will move past the hype to address the foundational challenges that now define market leadership: eliminating the latency between data and application, slashing the overhead of massive compute costs and establishing the governance frameworks required to scale intelligent systems with confidence. This session is designed for leaders who must act now to transition from experimental AI into a high-velocity, production-scale operation. After the session, connect with your peers during the exclusive Industry Forum Happy Hour. Reserve your seat today!
