Join SANS instructor, Christopher Crowley as he cuts through the noise and provides an assessment of where AI/ML fits into cyber defense, where it doesn't, and what it will take to build an organization ready for both. Join us as we walk through the near-term adjustments SOCs can make right now and the longer-horizon vision of a fully integrated, AI-augmented security operation. You'll leave with a clearer understanding of why knowledgeable staff remain the most critical asset, how to build a hunting-to-engineering pipeline that works, and what the convergence of IT operations and cybersecurity will demand from a team in the next three to five years. Whether you're running an in-house SOC, managing an MSSP relationship, or trying to make the case to leadership for smarter investment, this session gives you the framework to move from reactive to intentional.
