2026 AI & Cyber Summit — The Window for Defense Is Closing

I recently photographed the 2026 AI & Cyber Summit, hosted by Menlo Ventures, where cybersecurity leaders, founders, and CISOs gathered to confront a pressing reality: AI-driven threats are advancing faster than traditional defenses can respond.

Featuring speakers from AI heavyweights like Anthropic and OpenAI, alongside the Chief Product Officer of Cisco, the summit explored how artificial intelligence is reshaping the cyber threat landscape. Discussions focused on behavioral detection, automation, and the growing need for adaptive, AI-powered defense strategies as security teams are forced to operate at machine speed.

Below is a visual recap from the event, capturing keynote moments, panel discussions, and the energy of leaders working to stay ahead of rapidly accelerating threats.
