SecurityWeek will host the 2026 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Risk Summit August 11-12, 2026, at the Ritz-Carlton in Half Moon Bay, CA.
Now in its third year, the AI Risk Summit is the leading conference that brings together CISOs, security leaders, AI researchers, developers, policymakers, and enterprise risk professionals to address the rapidly evolving challenges surrounding artificial intelligence adoption and security.
The conference agenda features keynote presentations, expert panel discussions, fireside chats, technical briefings, and networking opportunities designed to foster collaboration between security practitioners, researchers, and industry stakeholders.
“As organizations rapidly adopt AI technologies, understanding and managing AI-related risk has become a top priority for cybersecurity and business leaders,” said Mike Lennon, Director of the AI Risk Summit. “The AI Risk Summit is designed to provide attendees with actionable insights, real-world experiences, and meaningful discussions around securing AI in the enterprise.”
Topics expected to be covered include:
- Securing enterprise AI deployments and AI-powered applications

- Deepfakes, misinformation, and identity risks
- AI governance, compliance, and regulatory developments
- AI risk management frameworks and best practices
