Barracuda Networks

On the vendor side, we're seeing a wave of new AI-focused security solutions targeting managed service providers.

Barracuda Networks and others are rolling out tools to help MSPs and their clients manage AI risk, automate threat detection, and enforce governance.

For organizations that rely on third-party providers, it's important to evaluate the maturity of these offerings and consider how they fit into your broader risk management and vendor oversight programs.

As the ecosystem becomes more complex, third-party risk is becoming a critical area of focus.

What does cybersecurity leadership look like when attackers can operate at machine speed? AI agents, they hold powerful access privileges and response windows are shrinking from minutes to seconds.

He will reflect on what attracted him to Barracuda, how his experience at RSA helped shaped his leadership philosophy, And why protecting smaller organizations actually gives cybersecurity a particularly meaningful purpose.

And we'll also discuss why the AI era strengthens the case for connected security platforms.

How tool sprawl could become agent sprawl.

A lot to get through today, so enough scene setting for me.

Let me introduce you to him now.

So today we're here recording at the Barracuda Tech Summit in Alpbach, Austria.
