Your company is deploying AI agents faster than you can assess them. The business wants answers yesterday. And in the space between ‘this tool is amazing’ and ‘wait, what data is it touching?’, that is where things get interesting and real challenges emerge.
Join the Catalyst Fellows for a virtual webinar on Tuesday, March 3 from 11:00 AM–12:00 PM to hear a deep dive into the risk assessment of a real AI automation system. We're not talking theory: we're walking through a practical tool you can build at home, pulling back the curtain on its vulnerabilities, and showing you how seemingly simple automations can expose organizations to data leakage, prompt injection, untrusted output, and system compromise.
This session provides a practical examination of how cybersecurity professionals assess and categorize risk in emerging AI ecosystems, and identifies the key safeguards that matter most as these tools become increasingly accessible.
Ideal for: Students, innovators, and managers/decision makers who are considering AI applications in their workplace.
