#BrandConnectInitiative Some conversations don’t end when the event does, they stay with you because they redefine how you look at the future of security and AI. Key Takeaways from the TrendAI Launch event. 1. Prioritisation beats coverage. Patching 100% of vulnerabilities is a regulatory fiction. The real goal is identifying and closing the exploitable attack paths. 2. Virtual patching is India's most powerful compensatory control. It is the bridge between the speed of vulnerability discovery and the constraints of enterprise patch cycles, especially in regulated sectors to be used deliberately and sparingly to maintain business uptime. 3. Agentic AI breaks every existing security model. When AI acts autonomously, making decisions, using identities, calling tools, the traditional perimeter, identity, and gateway controls are no longer sufficient. 4. Proactive security must lead, not lag. Organisations still running a protect, detect and then respond model are permanently behind. 5. AI posture management and AIDR are the new must-haves. Just as EDR became non-negotiable for endpoints, AI-specific detection, response, and posture management are now mandatory capabilities for any enterprise deploying AI systems. 6. Antifragility is the new standard. Bouncing back to a previous state is no longer good enough. Resilience is the key.
