NTT DATA offers business and technology services, from consulting to connectivity, serving clients and industries around the world.

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, enterprises face mounting complexity — from hybrid IT sprawl and fragmented identity ecosystems to expanding AI-driven attack surfaces. This session explores how organizations can achieve digital resilience through the convergence of AI, hybrid cloud security, and modernized operations.

 

Cisco and NTT DATA will unpack how hybrid mesh security architectures deliver unified visibility and policy enforcement across on-premises, cloud, and edge environments. We’ll discuss how Zero Trust has evolved from access control to a resilience enabler, transforming identity into a dynamic defense layer. The conversation also examines the duality of AI in cybersecurity — both as a powerful automation enabler and a new frontier of risk requiring secure AI lifecycles.

 

The session culminates with strategies for SOC modernization, showcasing how AI-powered analytics and managed operations are helping global organizations shift from reactive detection to predictive defense. Attendees will gain actionable insights into building adaptive, measurable, and business-aligned security postures.

 

Together, Cisco and NTT DATA demonstrate how to operationalize resilience — integrating technology, intelligence, and expertise to empower secure, agile, and AI-ready enterprises.
