The upcoming virtual event, hosted by SentinelOne and endorsed by ISC2, offers a practical guide for enterprises preparing for the enforcement of the EU AI Act by August 2026. This session is designed for security leaders, compliance officers, and IT governance professionals seeking to understand the regulatory landscape, align their AI strategies with legal requirements, and reduce organisational risk. Attendees will gain clarity on the Act’s obligations and learn how to implement effective AI governance frameworks in a rapidly evolving environment.

Understanding the EU AI Act and Its Impact

The EU AI Act introduces a comprehensive regulatory framework for artificial intelligence across Europe. Enterprises operating in or selling into the European market must ensure their AI systems comply with these new standards to avoid significant legal and financial consequences. The event will break down the Act’s core requirements, including risk classification, deployer obligations, and the distinction between approved and unapproved AI tools.

Security leaders will benefit from a clear explanation of how the Act affects daily operations and long-term strategy. The session will highlight the importance of proactive compliance and the risks associated with delayed action.

Addressing Shadow AI and Security Governance

One of the most pressing challenges for enterprises is the rise of shadow AI—unapproved or unknown AI usage within organisations. This event will provide strategies for identifying and managing these hidden risks, ensuring that all AI deployments are visible and governed according to regulatory and security best practices.

Attendees will learn how to bridge the gap between rapid AI adoption and slower-moving governance processes. The session will emphasize the need for a security-centric approach, positioning AI governance as a critical component of enterprise risk management rather than a simple compliance checkbox.

Expert Guidance and Professional Development

This expert-led webinar features actionable insights and a dedicated Q&A segment, allowing participants to address specific concerns related to AI compliance and security. Endorsed by ISC2, the event also offers continuing professional education credits, supporting ongoing development for security and compliance professionals.

By attending, security leaders will be equipped with the knowledge and tools needed to achieve compliance, mitigate exposure, and establish robust AI governance frameworks ahead of the EU AI Act’s enforcement deadline.
