The EU AI Act introduces the world's first comprehensive legal framework for artificial intelligence, establishing a risk-based approach that directly impacts cybersecurity professionals. With phased implementation already underway and major compliance deadlines approaching, organizations face critical questions about scope, risk categorization and technical requirements. Article 15 mandates that high-risk AI systems achieve appropriate levels of cybersecurity resilience, making this regulation essential for security teams. Understanding whether your AI systems fall under minimal, transparency, high-risk or prohibited categories determines your compliance obligations and potential regulatory exposure.

In this session, led by Patrick Van Eecke at Cooley LLP, you will learn:

• How to assess whether your AI systems fall within the Act's scope and risk categories;
• What the AI Act's cybersecurity requirements mean for security professionals;
• Which AI practices are already prohibited and what steps organizations must take now.
