Attackers aren't waiting—and neither can your defenses. To stay ahead, security teams need to move beyond manual processes and reactive controls. AI promises to deliver real-time insights, adaptive threat response, and reduced workload on overburdened teams—but only if it's integrated strategically. This webcast cuts through the hype to show how to make AI an operational asset to network security -- not an unpredictable variable.

Juniper Networks experts will share how AI-powered threat detection and automated policy enforcement are changing the game in modern networking environments. From client to cloud and every point in between, we'll explore how to embed AI where it counts, ensure transparency in decision-making, and align with existing security frameworks.

Whether you're exploring AI for the first time or refining an existing strategy, this session will help you build a more responsive, intelligent network security posture.
