AI is rapidly reshaping the internet, transforming how content is created, how traffic behaves, and how organizations approach their digital presence. At the same time, attackers continue to rely on speed and lateral movement to exploit vulnerabilities, often outpacing traditional network defenses.

This roundtable brings these dynamics together in an open discussion on how AI-driven systems and automated agents are creating both new opportunities and emerging risks. We’ll explore evolving patterns such as the rise of AI scrapers, the growing share of non-human traffic, and what these shifts mean for visibility, performance, and security.

Overview

As part of the conversation, we’ll examine how approaches like Akamai Segmentation can help address these challenges by enforcing granular access controls and isolating workloads. By limiting lateral movement and reducing exposure across applications, services, and AI endpoints, organizations can better contain threats, accelerate incident response, and maintain high-performance connectivity, without adding unnecessary operational complexity.

Participants are encouraged to share perspectives and experiences around managing AI-driven traffic, protecting exposed endpoints, and shaping policies for automated access. Join the discussion to exchange ideas, compare approaches, and gain a broader view of how to balance innovation with control in an increasingly complex, AI-driven environment.
