The IV National Cybersecurity Forum, organized on the initiative

convened representatives of the public and private sectors,
international experts, technology companies, and cybersecurity
professionals. One of the leading enablers of Azerbaijan’s digital
ecosystem, “Azercell Telecom” LLC, supported the event as a
platinum sponsor.
The forum served as an important platform for the exchange of
international expertise, the discussion of emerging technologies,
and the strengthening of cross-sector collaboration. Participants

transformation, the growing role of artificial intelligence in
cybersecurity, and modern approaches to digital risk

titled “Cyber Challenges in Digital Transformation.” During his
presentation, he shared practical results achieved through the
application of artificial intelligence in the company’s
cybersecurity operations. He also noted that Azercell currently
provides more than 10 cybersecurity services to corporate
customers.
M. Sharifli highlighted that Azercell is the first telecom
operator in the local market to implement an AI-driven architecture
for cyber threat detection and the centralized management of the
digital security ecosystem. He noted that the level of alignment
between cybersecurity analysts’ decisions and AI-generated outputs
has now exceeded 95%. Mr. Sharifli emphasized that the adoption of
AI-powered systems has significantly improved operational
efficiency, with some processes now being completed up to 40 times
faster than through traditional approaches. In addition, these
technologies enable advanced large-scale data processing and
analytics, supporting the timely identification and mitigation of
potential cyber threats.
