Session details
AI is rewriting the rules of enterprise security, and the organizations that thrive will be the ones that adapt now. In this keynote, Cohesity CEO Sanjay Poonen makes the case for why legacy approaches fall short in an agentic world, and what it takes to protect, manage, and recover data when AI is both the tool and the threat.
Speaker
Session details
Frontier AI models are developing cybersecurity capabilities quickly, and the implications for enterprise defenders are still coming into focus. This session covers the current state of AI-enabled offense and defense, what security teams need to understand, and how organizations can approach risk and resilience as they adopt agentic workflows.
Speakers
Session details
When disruptions hit at machine speed, most organizations discover their recovery plans don't hold up. This session shares findings from Cohesity's new global survey of resilience leaders. You'll hear where enterprise preparedness breaks down, from flawed planning assumptions to poorly defined recovery priorities to underestimating the complexity of recovering from AI system failures.

Sanjay Poonen, CEO and President of Cohesity, talks with McDonald's Chairman and CEO Chris Kempczinski about what it's like to guide McDonald's through transformation.

He also shares how these tools make life easier for franchisees and restaurant crews, and how they change the way he leads globally.
Speakers
Session details
As AI agents take on more critical business functions, a single compromised or malfunctioning agent can disrupt data, workflows, and infrastructure. This session demonstrates how Cohesity's new Agent Resilience capabilities bring visibility, protection, and recovery to multi-agent environments, so organizations stay in control when agents don't.
Speakers
Session details
Most organizations have recovery plans, but disconnected workflows and manual steps slow everything down when it matters most. This session covers Cohesity's latest work in autonomous cyber resilience, including how agentic AI can enable organizations to protect, secure, and recover critical applications faster after an attack, restoring the minimum viable company and minimizing business disruption.
Speakers
Session details
Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian joins Cohesity CEO Sanjay Poonen to challenge a common assumption: That scanning code is enough to secure the agentic AI era. Kurian breaks down four core beliefs shaping how leading enterprises defend themselves today—why the real attack surface spans binaries, firmware, and network devices, not just source code. Why scanning has to be continuous. Why remediation, not detection, is the real bottleneck. And why no single model catches every vulnerability. A clear, actionable framework for any security leader rethinking their AI strategy.
Speakers
Session details
Join Cohesity CMO Carol Carpenter for a fireside chat with Brett Goldstein, Emmy Award-winning actor and writer known for Ted Lasso, Shrinking, and Office Romance. Goldstein has crafted some of television's most compelling stories about resilience and our capacity to move forward through adversity. Together, they'll explore what made characters like Roy Kent resonate worldwide: navigating change, confronting failure, and finding the courage to reinvent. Goldstein will share why resilience is less about toughness and more about connection, self-awareness, and the courage to keep going.
