Artificial intelligence is no longer a niche tech subject. It’s on campuses everywhere, and there’s no putting the genie back in the bottle. While AI is helping campuses work more efficiently and get more out of their resources, it’s also powering new threats.

But AI is also a powerful form of defense.

Watch the on-demand Virtual Forum, “AI’s Impact on College Cybersecurity,” from November 5 at 2 p.m. ET. During this event, panelists discussed ways to help you navigate the reality of AI and cybersecurity. They explored:

  • How AI can detect threats to cloud security and suspicious shifts in user and system behavior
  • How AI can help shield colleges’ cloud-stored digital treasure
  • The ways AI can help you respond and adapt to emergent threats to your data
  • How to use AI to predict the likelihood of future attacks
  • How to wield AI responsibly and productively

With Support From WIZ.

Host: Alex Kafka, senior editor, The Chronicle of Higher Education
