AI Agent Deployment and Threat Defence
Raja Mukerji, Co-founder and Chief Scientist of ExtraHop, will lead a series of events across the Asia-Pacific region to educate security leaders on the upcoming agentic era. The tour kicks off on 20th May 2026 in Singapore.
The series, titled ‘ExtraHop Reveals the Agentic Shift’, will explore AI agent deployment and defence against agentic threats. It will also focus on establishing operational frameworks for an agentic Security Operations Centre (SOC). Mukerji aims to translate high-level AI strategies into practical outcomes for security leaders.
Each event will feature technical presentations, live simulations, and networking sessions. Stops are scheduled in Singapore on 20th May 2026, Kuala Lumpur on 21st May 2026, Melbourne on 27th May 2026, Sydney on 28th May 2026, and Canberra on 29th May 2026.
Addressing Data Quality Challenges
Raja Mukerji emphasised the importance of data quality within agentic security, stating, “The industry didn’t stop to ask whether the data foundation was ready before racing into the agentic era.” He stressed the necessity of high-fidelity data to prevent missed threats.
ExtraHop’s Network Detection and Response (NDR) platform provides real-time network telemetry, enabling AI agents to detect and respond to threats effectively. This platform focuses on defending against AI-powered threats, monitoring AI tools, and fueling an agentic SOC.
Security leaders in APAC are encouraged to register for these events, which aim to provide a comprehensive roadmap for deploying AI agents safely and effectively in cybersecurity operations.
Nation-state activity targeting APAC’s critical telecommunications infrastructure has surged. This has made autonomous defence a regulatory necessity. Enterprises face challenges as systems meant to protect them miss threats due to poor data quality.
ExtraHop has been preparing for the agentic era with its platform that delivers high-fidelity, real-time network telemetry. This equips AI agents with the necessary data and context to reason and act confidently.
The events will also address how to monitor and govern AI across enterprises, detecting shadow AI and anomalous behaviour before they become incidents.
