The Call for Presentations is now open!
Summit: March 31 - April 1 | Denver, CO & Live Online
AI’s growing role in cyber threat detection and mitigation is undeniable, but the same capabilities are being exploited by malicious actors to launch more sophisticated attacks. The SANS AI Cybersecurity Summit 2025 aims to address both sides of this coin—AI as a tool for cybersecurity and as a tool for attackers. The SANS AI Cybersecurity Summit will feature in-depth talks, interactive workshops and live demonstrations, that will offer practical approaches to incorporating AI and Machine Learning (ML) into daily cybersecurity tasks.
To get a taste of the type of dynamic presentations and speakers we're looking for, check out these talks from last year's Summit.
We are looking for presentations that address current trends, innovative research, and real-world case studies across the following themes:
- AI in Threat Detection and Incident Response: Share your experience or research on how AI-powered tools enhance the detection of cyber threats and automate incident response.
- Generative AI and Cybersecurity Threats: Explore the dangers posed by generative AI, such as deepfakes, automated phishing, and social engineering, and the strategies organizations can adopt to mitigate these risks.
- AI-Driven Automation in Cybersecurity: How automation, powered by AI, is changing the landscape of cybersecurity, streamlining processes from adaptive authentication to vulnerability management.
- Ethics and AI Governance in Cybersecurity: With AI becoming more integral to cybersecurity operations, how should organizations navigate the ethical concerns, data privacy issues, and compliance with emerging regulations?
- Zero-Trust and AI: How AI-driven solutions are facilitating the adoption of zero-trust architectures and improving Identity and Access Management (IAM).
- Threats on the Horizon: AI-Enhanced Attacks: Discuss emerging AI-driven cyber threats and how organizations can prepare for them, including defense against AI-based malware and AI-assisted hacking.
If you have something to share, you are encouraged to submit. We are always looking for talks from a broad range of speakers from various backgrounds, industries, organizational types and sizes, regions, etc.
Deadline: Friday, December 20, 5:00 p.m. EST (UTC-5)
