Building AI Agents for Security: From Prompt to Production
Most security teams treat AI like a search engine—asking one-off questions and accepting generic answers. But as adversaries adopt agentic AI workflows (running 47 times faster than human operators), security teams are falling behind. The real opportunity isn't in better prompts. It's in building autonomous AI agents that investigate incidents, write detection rules, harden infrastructure, and operate with minimal human hand-holding.
The gap is stark: 64% of security professionals are researching or have purchased GenAI tools, yet most haven't moved beyond the chatbot model. Those who build agentic AI workflows—autonomous partners that work 24/7 without constant supervision—gain a compounding defensive advantage.
Building AI Agents for Security: From Prompt to Production is a live virtual workshop designed to help security engineers, DevSecOps practitioners, and SOC teams bridge that gap.
Led by a security engineer who has built agentic AI workflows in production, this hands-on session explores how to move from passive prompting to designing AI agents capable of executing meaningful security tasks with appropriate human oversight.
Through practical demonstrations, implementation patterns, and production-focused guidance, attendees will learn how autonomous AI agents can investigate incidents, generate detection rules, harden infrastructure, support compliance efforts, and accelerate security operations without sacrificing governance or trust.
Rather than focusing on AI theory or generic productivity tips, this workshop is built around real operational challenges facing modern security teams—high alert volumes, manual investigation, infrastructure drift, compliance overhead, and increasing pressure to deliver more with smaller teams.
By the end of the session, participants will understand how to think differently about AI in security, identify where autonomous agents can deliver measurable operational value, and leave with practical frameworks for designing, deploying, and governing their own AI-powered security workflows.
What You'll Learn
During this live workshop, you'll explore:
How to shift from a passive "prompt and pray" mindset to designing autonomous AI agents
The agentic mindset—what separates a chatbot from an agent that acts independently
How to implement guardrails and trust mechanisms so AI agents operate safely in sensitive security environments
Live demonstration of an AI agent independently executing a real security workflow, including incident investigation, detection rule generation, and infrastructure hardening
Practical frameworks and design patterns for building AI-powered security workflows
How to handle failures, maintain human oversight, and design agents that don't require constant supervision
Real-world deployment patterns for introducing agentic AI into production security environments
Why Attend?
By attending, you'll gain clarity on:
