Over the years, c0c0n, the annual cyber security conference hosted by Kerala Police, has adopted a multi-prolonged, proactive framework to anticipate and counter the emerging threats in the cyber space.

The emergence of AI and ML have made cybersecurity faster, smarter, predictive, and automated, but human oversight remains crucial to handle complex attacks and ethical concerns.

This year being the 19th year of c0c0n, focuses on how AI and ML driven Cyber Security can be leveraged to build intelligent, adaptive, predictive systems and practices to collectively work towards building a cyber resilient eco system. Together, humans and intelligent systems can build a safe and smarter digital realm.

I fervently hope that all stakeholders will join hands and come together to make the utmost use of this wonderful platform “c0c0n” for a safe and secure digital world.
