Meet ManageEngine at SecTor 2026: AI-powered defense, live at booth 515
Toronto's security community is gathering again. SecTor 2026 by Black Hat runs October 6–8 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, and this year marks the conference's 20th edition. Last year's event welcomed 5,350 security professionals, and 2026 is shaping up to be bigger: register now.
ManageEngine will be there in full force. You'll find us at booth 515, located in the Business Hall, with two sessions on the Pulse Stage.
Here's everything on our agenda.
Two sessions you won't want to miss
Both sessions take place on Wednesday, October 7, at Pulse_Stage/02.
From AI-powered insights to self-healing endpoint resilience
Arul Aram, Technical Account Manager, ManageEngine
11:25am–11:45am
Endpoints remain the most exposed layer of the enterprise—and the slowest to recover when something goes wrong. Arul explores how AI-driven insight can move endpoint management from reactive firefighting to self-healing resilience, where issues are detected, contextualized, and remediated before they escalate into incidents.
Detect like machines. Decide like human.
Ranjith Kumar, Principal, Technical Consulting, ManageEngine
1:50pm–2:10pm
Machines are extraordinary at detection, but humans are irreplaceable for judgment. Ranjith unpacks how security teams can get the balance right using automation to handle scale and speed and keeping decisions human-centered.
What's happening at booth 515
The sessions are 20 minutes each. The booth is where the longer conversations happen.
One-on-one time with our domain experts: Our specialists in identity and access management, SIEM, and endpoint security will be on the floor throughout the event. Whether you're rethinking your identity architecture, struggling with alert fatigue, or building out a three-year security roadmap, this is the fastest way to get straight answers to the questions your team is wrestling with.
Live demos and product deep dives: Learn howAI-powered cybersecurity is working, not just described. We'll show you how ManageEngine helps organizations across the world detect threats faster, manage identities at scale, and keep endpoints resilient—with as much technical depth as you want.
A lucky draw on both days: Drop by and enter— it's that simple.
- ManageEngine merchandise to take home: The best conference swag is the kind you'll actually use.
Find us before you reach the hall
Heading in through the MTCC south building entrance? You'll see us before you see anyone else. Our wall panel branding is positioned right where the foot traffic is heaviest—a good landmark if you're orienting yourself on day one.
Why this conversation matters right now
Canadian organizations are navigating a threat landscape where attackers have already operationalized AI, and defenders are still deciding how far to trust it. The gap between those two realities is where most breaches now live.
That's the thread running through both of our sessions and every other conversation at booth 515: How do you utilize AI in your security operations without relinquishing the judgment calls that require human context? We don't think the answer is more dashboards; it's tighter integration between detection, decision, and remediation—with your team firmly in the loop.
Come tell us whether you agree.
Missed us last year? Catch up on demand
Our SecTor 2025 sessions are still available to watch, and they built the foundation for what we'll cover this October. Both are free to access.
Decluttering the SOC: Focusing on what truly secures you in the age of AI
Modern SOCs don't suffer from a shortage of data; they suffer from a shortage of signal. This session cuts through the noise problem: Which alerts, tools, and workflows actually move the needle on your security posture, and which ones are just adding to the pile?
AI-infused security and compliance for endpoint resilience
A closer look at what happens when AI is applied to the endpoint layer, not as a bolt-on, but woven through security and compliance workflows. Resilience becomes the default state instead of a recovery goal. Discover the useful groundwork ahead of Arul's session on self-healing endpoints this year.
