Veeam, ITWeb, and ITWeb Africa are inviting senior data and IT decision-makers to a complimentary webinar on 12 May, focused on the emerging trend of agentic AI and how to manage some of the risks around it.

The webinar, titled ‘Accelerate Safe AI at Scale’, will provide an overview of the challenges of detecting and protecting against the risk of AI agents.

This comes as many organisations are trying to scale AI without full visibility into where sensitive data resides, how it is classified, and who has access to it, according to Veeam.

The company notes that this increases privacy and compliance risk, slows adoption, and reduces stakeholder confidence, particularly as AI tools and agentic workflows expand across the business.

The event is aimed at decision-makers in data governance, privacy, risk and security.

Veeam says that by attending, participants will gain a practical roadmap for scaling AI responsibly, starting with data visibility and control and reducing privacy and compliance exposure as AI adoption expands. 

Attendees will also gain an understanding of how data security posture management supports continuous risk reduction in dynamic environments, and learn how recovery readiness can reduce the business impact of AI-related incidents.

Among the executives who would gain insight from this session are chief data officers, heads of data and analytics, data governance and information management leaders, data protection officers and privacy leaders, as well as risk and compliance leaders. 

The content would also be relevant and informative for CIOs, CTOs, IT directors and IT managers, CISOs and cybersecurity leaders, Microsoft 365 administrators and collaboration platform owners, in addition to backup, recovery and business continuity leaders, and enterprise and security architects.

The webinar discussions will be led Tahir Latif, chief trust officer: EMEA, Securiti AI, Veeam, and Mark Govender, manager, system engineering for Africa, Veeam Software.

Latif is a globally recognised authority in Data Privacy and AI Governance, while Govender is an industry veteran with nearly two decades’ experience in IT infrastructure and technical solutions.
