RSAC 2026 Day 4 starts off with powerful insights into the future of cybersecurity, where AI security, agentic AI, and automation are reshaping the industry.
In this conversation, Mike Shema and Matt Alderman break down the biggest takeaways from the conference, including why AI-native security startups are rising, how Model Context Protocol (MCP) is becoming the next security battleground, and why visibility alone is no longer enough.
A key theme from RSAC 2026: cybersecurity must evolve from monitoring to action. As attackers move at machine speed using AI, defenders must adopt automation, autonomous security, and human-in-the-loop decision-making to keep up.
You’ll also learn:
Why agentic AI dominated RSAC 2026 The shift from alerts → outcomes in security operations How small and large language models will work together Why cyber hygiene still matters more than hype The growing importance of security ecosystems and collaboration
