Event
Governing cyber risks and opportunities with agentic AI
11 March 17:30 - 19:30 GMT
What will the event cover?
Agentic AI offers unprecedented opportunities — at the cybersecurity coalface and in the boardroom, too. But these opportunities come with new risks, and many boards are struggling to bridge the governance gap.
Nearly 90% of organisations in the UK and Ireland deploy AI agents, yet only 54% have a framework for centralised governance and formal oversight. So it's hardly surprising that in 2025, 57% of cyber attacks were due to AI vulnerabilities.
Governance professionals are uniquely positioned to navigate this challenge — establishing proper frameworks to strengthen board oversight, support innovation, and ensure organisations capture the benefits of AI while managing the risks.
Join us to hear our expert panel explore:
- The evolving threat landscape and what agentic AI means for boards
- The role of governance professionals in navigating these new risks and opportunities
- The governance frameworks that actually work and what insurers will expect to see
