In today's AI era, with the explosive proliferation of generative AI, the cybersecurity landscape is at a major turning point. Addressing the "defense speed gap" due to sophisticated attack methods and ensuring business resilience even in the event of an attack are urgent challenges for companies.

Furthermore, on the first day, Mani Sundaram, EVP & GM Security Technology Group, who leads Akamai's security business, will take the stage. He will discuss the necessary approaches and countermeasures to balance enhanced competitiveness through AI utilization with maintaining security and compliance, from the perspectives of API and data flow visualization, limiting damage expansion, and strengthening governance, incorporating the latest trends for 2026.
