Event Description
 

As part of Global Entrepreneurship Week and Miami AI Month, we’re proud to feature Rehan Jalil, the visionary Chief Executive Officer of Securiti, in a powerful conversation on data security, governance, and generative AI in the age of cloud transformation.

Rehan is a longtime leader in cloud security, having previously served as SVP and GM for Cloud Security at Symantec before founding Securiti in 2019. His pioneering work established Securiti’s Data Command Center — a platform that empowers organizations to safely use data and generative AI by unifying data discovery, security, privacy, and compliance across complex multi-cloud environments.

Now, following Securiti’s recent acquisition by Veeam, Rehan continues to shape the future of data intelligence and resilience, combining automation and AI-driven controls to help enterprises securely unlock the value of their data.

In this session, Rehan will explore how agentic AI frameworks are revolutionizing data governance and how businesses can leverage trusted AI to balance innovation with protection. He’ll share firsthand insights from building a global cybersecurity company, the evolving regulatory landscape, and what it takes to lead responsibly in an AI-first world.

Get ready to rethink how data security, AI, and innovation intersect — and walk away with a blueprint for building trust in a data-driven future.
