AI has permanently accelerated the rate of vulnerability discovery beyond human patching capacity. The core challenge is no longer the intelligence needed to find the bug; it is the automated execution framework required to patch, configure, and secure the estate before the window of exposure closes.

This workshop shows you how Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) helps streamline, standardise, and scale your security response — so your organisation can act faster, more consistently, and with full confidence across the entire estate.

This will put you in the operator's seat. Starting from a simulated (Real Life) AI-curated vulnerability advisory, you'll use Ansible Automation Platform to build the standardised, governed workflows that allow your teams to respond to security findings rapidly and consistently — across OS layers, application stacks, and security baselines
