In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, security teams are overwhelmed by noise, blind spots, and fragmented telemetry. Logs can be manipulated. Endpoint agents can be blinded. But the network never lies.
Join and for an exclusive VIP Roundtable exploring the rise of the Agentic SOC, where autonomous security operations, AI-driven detection, and real-time network intelligence converge to deliver unfiltered truth across the enterprise.
This session will explore how organisations can evolve from reactive security operations into intelligent, agentic systems that detect, investigate, and respond at machine speed.

Mark Micklefield brings over 25 years of experience across enterprise IT, cybersecurity, networking, and large-scale solution design across the UK, Europe, and New Zealand. His background spans complex infrastructure environments, including work with major organisations in finance, utilities, government, and telecommunications, where he has helped design and deliver secure, scalable technology solutions.
At this VIP Roundtable, Mark provides a practical, real-world perspective on the evolving security landscape, bridging traditional enterprise architecture with modern challenges such as AI-driven systems, identity sprawl, and autonomous security operations. His insights help ground the discussion in the realities of implementing an Agentic SOC within complex enterprise environments.
Kane Blair is Technology Lead at Woolworths New Zealand, where he oversees the delivery and evolution of enterprise technology systems supporting one of New Zealand’s largest retail operations. His work spans complex, high-scale environments where reliability, performance, and security are critical to day-to-day operations.
At this VIP Roundtable, Kane brings a practical enterprise perspective on how large organisations are navigating modern security challenges, particularly around cloud adoption, operational resilience, and the increasing role of automation and AI in technology environments. His insights help connect the discussion on Agentic SOC and network truth to real-world enterprise scale and execution.
Explore how security operations are evolving from manual, alert-driven processes to autonomous, AI-powered systems that detect and respond at machine speed.
Understand why logs can be manipulated and endpoint agents can be bypassed, while network telemetry continues to provide the most reliable source of truth.
Examine how security teams are struggling with alert fatigue and complexity, and how agentic models can reduce noise and improve response efficiency.
