Cybersecurity teams across higher education face escalating threats while operating with limited staffing and resources. This session will examine how artificial intelligence can help redesign security operations and strengthen cyber defense without increasing headcount. The presenter will share how AI-supported workflows reduce alert fatigue, accelerate incident response, and improve analyst effectiveness while maintaining human oversight. You’ll explore how cybersecurity initiatives can be aligned with institutional risk management and operational resilience and learn practical strategies for piloting AI-enabled security initiatives in a responsible and scalable way.
