The leader in network security posture management, today announced new details for Tufinnovate 2026, its annual virtual user conference, including its keynote panel, featured speakers, and hands-on innovation labs showcasing the company’s recently announced agentic AI capabilities
In keeping with the previously announced theme of this year’s event, “Welcome to the Agentic Era of Network Security Posture,” Tufinnovate 2026’s agenda will take attendees beyond a strategy discussion to explore exactly how AI is reshaping both cyberattacks and defenses in real-world enterprise environments. As networks evolve faster and attackers increasingly leverage AI to identify vulnerabilities and move laterally, security teams must adapt to a new operational reality defined by continuous change and machine-speed threats.
Keynote: Confronting AI-Driven Threats Head-On
Leading the examination of this issue will be a keynote panel entitled “Network Security in the Agentic Era — When AI Attacks, Who Defends?” It will feature Jared Myers, Director of OverWatch at CrowdStrike, and Assaf Keren, CSO at Qualtrics, who will both share frontline insights into how attackers are operationalizing AI to identify vulnerabilities faster, evade defenses, and expand attack paths. The discussion will also examine how security teams are evolving their strategies to keep pace with these rapidly changing threats. Shay Dayan, Tufin’s SVP of Products and Engineering, will join Jared and Assaf on the panel.
Live Agentic AI Demonstrations
A centerpiece of this year’s event will be Tufin’s Innovation Labs, where attendees can experience hands-on demonstrations of the company’s latest advancements in agentic AI and network security automation.
These sessions will showcase how Tufin is bringing agentic network security to life through AI-powered capabilities, built on its Dynamic Network Connectivity Graph and proven automation playbooks. Attendees will get an insider’s look into network visibility, automation, and compliance as it relates to Cloud, SASE, and Microsegmentation and learn how to best integrate modern security with solutions including Microsoft Azure, Zscaler, and Akamai.
Panel Discussion: Managing Multi-Vendor Agentic Network Security
Securing today’s hybrid, multi-vendor environments requires a smarter approach to visibility, automation, and control. This panel-format session will continue the event’s theme, covering strategies that organizations can use to strengthen network security in the age of AI. From methods of improving visibility, to proven attack playbooks, and governed automation that can reduce risk faster, attendees will walk away with insights on how to best implement and manage vendor-agnostic control that can scale across their ever-evolving and increasingly complex hybrid enterprise environments.
