AWS Tech Talk & Happy Hour: Navigate & Evolve your Cloud Governance for AI

Details

Join Emily Soward from AWS to dive into how to Navigate and Evolve your Cloud Governance for AI, ML and Generative AI.

Explore the world of AI from a security and GRC perspective and learn how to integrate AI into your existing organizational security and risk strategies with techniques to better protect your data and AI models in the cloud.

Get practical ways to address questions like "how do I identify additional controls or modifications are needed for AI?" and "how would I implement these controls into my existing organization?" Learn how to relate the AI software development lifecycle, threat modeling, assurance, validation, incident response, and resiliency to their role in governance for AI/ML and generative AI workloads in the Cloud.

No AI experience necessary, basic familiarity with security, privacy, and GRC concepts is helpful.
