Agentic AI is moving from hype to reality, reshaping how enterprises operate, and how cyber defenders must adapt. In this CyberTalks episode, Mark Gillett (Chief Product Officer, eSentire) is joined by Ben Wilde (Head of Innovation, Georgian) to break down the risks, reliability challenges, and opportunities presented by autonomous AI agents.
In this episode, we explore:
How AI agents expand the enterprise attack surface
Why “agent security” may soon be its own discipline
Guardrails security leaders need before adoption
The balance between automation and human oversight in the SOC
A practical crawl–walk–run model for implementing agentic AI
If you’re a CISO, SOC architect, or IT leader, this episode will help you cut through the hype and prepare your team for the next frontier of AI-driven cybersecurity.
