As organisations across Asia accelerate their adoption of AI to drive innovation and operational efficiency, the security landscape is undergoing profound transformation. The rise of agentic AI introduces new complexities and vulnerabilities that demand a fresh approach to cybersecurity.  

This session will explore how end-to-end security frameworks can empower organisations to embrace AI confidently, while safeguarding their digital assets and ensuring compliance in an increasingly interconnected world.   

Hear from Anand Manoharan, APAC Microsoft Security Lead at Accenture, for a deep dive on the current threat landscape across Asia, including the role AI is playing in emerging cyber trends, and the latest security outlook for our region.    

Alym Rayani, VP of Security at Microsoft, will then explore the critical role security plays in enabling Frontier Firms to innovate with confidence, and provide a view of Microsoft’s end-to-end security portfolio—from identity and access management to threat protection and compliance.  

Whether you're navigating AI adoption, regulatory complexity, or operational risk, you’ll walk away from this session with actionable guidance to help you build a resilient, future-ready defence.
