TEL AVIV, Israel, November 21, 2024 Cato Networks, the SASE leader, today announced that Cato CTRL will speak at BSides Austin 2024, which is a cybersecurity event that brings together both local and internationally renowned experts. 

The sessions featuring Cato CTRL include:

“I see a lot of confusion around how AI intersects with security,” said Avishay Zawoznik, security research manager at Cato Networks and member of Cato CTRL. “In my talk, I’ll categorize different threats using AI so that the audience can understand the security risks—either as users or as providers. I’ll also provide recent examples and references to emerging AI-related security standards.”  

“Machine learning is transforming how we approach threat intelligence,” said Tomer Doitshman, security research team lead at Cato Networks and member of Cato CTRL. “In my session, we’ll explore how an ML-driven feedback loop enhances threat detection accuracy, adapts to emerging threats in real time, and empowers organizations to strengthen their defenses with dynamic, data-driven insights.”
