Returning to Manchester, this event examines how AI is reshaping cybersecurity - from faster, smarter defence to new risks, regulatory demands, and the question of what happens when AI gets it wrong.

SASIG is thrilled to return to Manchester for our highly anticipated event there. Designed to engage, inspire and inform, this event explores how artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping cybersecurity – both as a powerful defence tool and an evolving threat.

AI is accelerating both cyber‑attacks and defence, making preparedness essential for security teams aiming to use AI to strengthen organisational resilience. That preparedness is increasingly shaped by geopolitics and evolving regulation, with growing emphasis on digital sovereignty, the integration of AI into existing cyber rules, and heightened board accountability for resilience. As AI adoption matures with organisations accountable for its impact CISOs measure AI’s ROI through faster, higher‑quality decision‑making, and stronger operational resilience.

Of course, they also know AI gets it wrong. What happens when it does?
