ESET leverages AI, automation, and quantum vision to outpace evolving cyber threats

Ajaykumar Joshi, Country Head - India & SAARC at ESET ASIA PTE. LTD.

At ESET, we’ve always believed that cybersecurity has to stay one step ahead of attackers, and that means embracing new-age technologies while keeping things practical for businesses. We’re using AI and automation not just to detect threats faster, but also to reduce the noise for security teams, so they can focus on real risks instead of being overwhelmed by alerts.

The threat landscape is shifting rapidly, attackers are experimenting with AI themselves and cybercrime is becoming more organised. That’s why our solutions are evolving to combine real-time threat intelligence with cloud-first delivery, making protection lighter, more adaptive, and easier to scale across industries. At the same time, we’re putting emphasis on protecting critical systems at the very foundation, so attackers can’t tamper with the underlying layers of devices or infrastructure.

And looking a little further ahead, technologies like quantum computing will change the way we think about encryption and security. This powerful technology has the potential to overpower current cybersecurity measures but also holds the key to enabling much more robust levels of security and privacy in the future.
