[un]prompted.au 2026 - Building the Ultimate AI Cyber Threat Analyst - Shane Huntley

Succeeding as a threat analyst in the Google Threat Intelligence Group requires building deep domain-specific intuition to navigate our massive internal systems and the unique combined intelligence of Google and Mandiant. Because human intuition doesn't scale as fast as our adversaries, we need to augment our workforce with an army of AI analyst agents to meet a threat landscape that is rapidly growing in volume and sophistication. This session explores how we are building AI to operate in this complex environment. I’ll share how we're training these agents to work alongside our human analysts, what is actually working in practice, and what this means for the future of threat intelligence.
