AGENDA

08:00 - 9:00 AM

9:00 - 9:20 AM

ManageEngine Overview

9:20 - 10:00 AM

Industry Expert Talk - "Securing the Autonomus Enterprise"

10:00 - 10:45 AM

Closing the Gap Between Detection and Response: AI-Native SIEM + SOAR for the Modern Threat Landscape

The modern SOC is broken: 4,000+ alerts/day, 30% false positives, analyst burnout, and attackers who move faster than human response allows
Why tool sprawl fails: visibility gaps between siloed products are exactly where attackers operate undetected
AI-powered threat detection: adaptive baselines, anomaly scoring, and natural language threat hunting that eliminates noise before it reaches an analyst
AI across the kill chain: correlating UEBA + DLP + endpoint signals to catch double extortion ransomware at the exfil stage — before encryption begins
Native SOAR as the response layer: detection without automated response is just expensive logging
Live scenario: BEC or ransomware detected → enriched → contained → remediated in under 90 seconds via automated playbook
Native SOAR advantage: no separate license, no data duplication, full SIEM context already available to playbooks — unlike bolt-on SOAR tools that need months of integration
Identity and data as attack surface: AD misconfiguration detection and sensitive data discovery feeding higher-fidelity alerts upstream
Closed-loop platform response: detect in SIEM, isolate at endpoint, revoke privileged access — zero manual handoff between consoles
Compliance as a byproduct: continuous monitoring produces audit-ready evidence without separate compliance projects
2026 roadmap signals: GenAI investigation copilot, expanded cloud SIEM, 50+ pre-built SOAR playbooks
