Artificial intelligence in OT security is no longer optional - vendors are embedding it into tools, and organizations are adopting it whether security teams are ready or not. Yet 74% of CISOs identify human error as their top security risk, and workers remain more worried than hopeful about AI in the workplace. The challenge is not whether to adopt AI, but how to build human-centric implementations that empower operators rather than replace them, while managing new attack surfaces introduced when previously air-gapped systems connect for AI data collection.

This session, led by Claudio Sangaletti, OT security leader at Medmix, explores:

• Three-stage maturity journey from AI-powered monitoring to automated threat response with human oversight;
• The challenges of integrating AI into legacy systems;
• Best practices to mitigate AI-related vulnerabilities in OT environments.
