10:00am - 10:10am | Event Kickoff & Introduction Matt Bromiley, Event Chairperson & SANS Certified Instructor |
10:10am - 10:45am | Unboxing AI Security AI apps are the most modern of modern apps, and we know how to protect apps and APIs. Mission accomplished, right? Hold on to your GPTs and prepare to dive into the weeds as we unpack what AI security truly means. Byron McNaught and Aubrey King will put their human brains and 25+ years collective experience together at F5 to present fundamental AI assertions that lead to practical application security best practices. Byron McNaught, Principal Technical Marketing Manager at F5 Aubrey King, Community Evangelist at F5 |
10:45am - 11:20am | Agentic AI: Amplifying both defense efficiency and attack complexity As AI becomes a key driver of global economic growth—projected to contribute $15.7 trillion by 2030—agentic AI systems are transforming business productivity and reshaping cybersecurity. In this session, we'll explore the dual challenge of securing agentic systems while defending against AI-powered threats. Agentic AI goes beyond traditional models, autonomously planning and adapting to achieve goals, but also creating new vulnerabilities. We'll focus on three critical areas for immediate security investment: 1. Mitigating hyper-personalized social engineering: Combat advanced phishing and deepfake risks with synthetic content detection and stronger multi-factor authentication. 2. Preparing for faster cyber attacks: Speed up defense with improved authentication, data protection, and AI-enhanced security responses. 3. Defending against input and inference attacks: Address threats like prompt injection with "Spotlighting" and increased system transparency. This session encourages forward-thinking approaches for proactive security strategies to protect the future of AI. Brandon Dixon, Partner Product Manager, Security AI Strategist at Microsoft |
11:20am - 11:55am | Remediating your vulnerability backlog at scale with AI If there’s one thing that developers can’t stand it’s endless false positive security alerts. But by leveraging best-of-breed tools and AI, your security team can triage and remediate at scale. In this session, we'll share the secret sauce which includes: - How to take control of your vulnerability backlog. - The role of AI to help security teams triage and remediate vulnerabilities. - How to report to your exec team on how vulnerabilities are being fixed. Jack Moxon, Senior Product Manager at Semgrep |
