S2 Ep46: AI-Driven Breach Detection: Genuine Improvement or a False Sense of Security?
Data Protection Made Easy Podcast
Written by Caine Glancy and Catarina Santos
Join Cate and Caine to explore AI-driven breach detection, the questions privacy teams should ask and the role of human judgement in responding to alerts.
AI-Driven Breach Detection: Help, Hype or Both?
AI tools may promise to help organisations spot incidents sooner. How should privacy teams assess those promises and understand the limits of the technology?
Join Cate and Caine on Friday 27 November 2026 for a Data Protection Made Easy discussion about AI-driven breach detection.
What Will We Discuss?
- Where automated detection could support an organisation’s incident-response process.
- The questions to ask about alerts, missed incidents and reliability.
- The role of people in investigating alerts and deciding what happens next.
- Assessing what a tool actually does, rather than relying on its marketing claims.
Who Is This Session For?
DPOs, privacy practitioners, security teams and anyone assessing or using tools to detect and respond to incidents.
