AI That Defends Itself: Securing Your Email & OT Environments with Darktrace Autonomous Cybersecurity for the Modern Enterprise
Share this event
Sophisticated Threats Need Sophisticated Defences.
For large enterprises and high-value targets, email remains the most exploited entry point, while IT/OT and critical infrastructure are often the least visible and least protected. In an era of AI-generated phishing, insider threats, and ransomware-as-a-service, traditional security tools no longer suffice.
Join PB Tech and Darktrace for an exclusive executive lunch at Onslow—a premium culinary experience by celebrated chef Josh Emett—to explore how self-learning AI and autonomous response are transforming how large organisations detect and stop threats across email and OT systems before damage is done.
Cyber Threats Don’t Wait—Why Should Your Security?
If your business supports 300+ users, manages critical infrastructure, or would face a material impact from a breach, this session is designed for you.
Join PB Tech and Darktrace for a focused Lunch & Learn where we’ll show how leading NZ organisations are deploying self-learning AI to protect email, cloud, IT and OT systems—with autonomous response that buys time when seconds matter.
What You’ll Learn:
∧ Email attacks are smarter—your defences should be too
Darktrace/Email goes beyond traditional gateways, catching novel phishing, supply chain compromise, and account takeover with behavioural AI.
∧ OT environments under attack—gain visibility without risk
Learn how Darktrace’s Industrial Immune System gives visibility into ICS/SCADA networks without disrupting operations.
∧ Autonomous response at machine speed
See how AI contains threats—ransomware, lateral movement, data exfiltration—before your team even receives an alert.
∧ Threat correlation across your whole ecosystem
Discover how Darktrace connects the dots across email, endpoints, servers, cloud, and operational systems in one platform.
∧ Built for real-world risk and ROI
Understand the business case for investing in intelligent, proactive defence—especially where the cost of failure is measured in downtime, revenue loss, or brand damage.
