How Cisco Helps Organizations Secure AI Without Slowing Adoption

October 22, 2026
2:00 p.m.-3:00 p.m. ET

Securing AI is new territory and the stakes are high. Canadian organizations are looking for guidance on what to worry about, what to govern and what to do first. CDW Canada and Cisco can assist with advisory work, including governance and risk assessments, control gap analysis and phased planning.

Join us for a practical discussion on securing AI in the enterprise. We’ll separate the marketing narrative around AI security from the outcomes organizations can actually achieve this year and map Cisco’s portfolio to the decisions you need to make as you open access to AI tools, host your own models and start putting agents in front of internal data.

In just 60 minutes, you’ll get:

  • A clearer view of AI security risks: From unsanctioned tools and data exposure to AI agents accessing internal systems.
  • A practical approach to security planning: Assess gaps, establish governance and prioritize what to address first.
  • Strategies for securing AI infrastructure: Explore networking, segmentation and visibility for AI workloads.
  • Better protection for private applications: Apply targeted access controls to internal apps, models and agent services.
  • Safer AI usage: Maintain visibility and control over the data entering and leaving AI tools.
  • A plan for next steps: Turn your current AI security gaps into a phased approach.
