Network security is more fragile than you think. Even though it feels like there’s some kind of data breach every other data it can – and might – get a lot worse.
When we talk about network security, there are two things you need to know. First, identity and access management is key. Keeping data safe is all about vetting who has access to what data. And second, encryption currently underpins much of today’s internet security landscape.
But both of these critical components are facing new challenges.
The Five Nine explores how and why AI agents and quantum computing could break modern network security, what role telecom network operators have in stopping the threats, and why everyone needs to start thinking about these problems NOW.
Special guests include Palo Alto’s SVP for Network Security Rich Campagna, F5 VP of AI and engineering guru Jimmy White and Fierce Network Research’s Mitch Wagner.
