📍 Midtown Manhattan — exact venue shared with confirmed attendees.
🗓️ October 13 | 11:00 AM–12:30 PM ET
Doors open at 10:30AM
AI is moving from copilots and experiments into production systems that can access company data, call tools and increasingly take actions.
But as AI becomes more agentic, the questions for security leaders are changing too.
-How are organisations actually deploying AI agents?
-Which guardrails are working?
-How are security teams hardening agents in production?
-Is AI governance helping teams adopt AI safely or creating processes people work around?
-And how is AI changing both sides of the security equation?
Rather than another panel about what organisations should be doing, we're bringing together a small group of security leaders to compare notes on what's actually changed in the last six months.
🎙️ A 90-Minute CISO - AI Security Exchange
No slides. No sales pitches.
This is a working session designed around candid conversation between security leaders and practitioners.
Hosted by Eric Freeman, CISO at WRITER, alongside Ashish Rajan, CISO at TechRiot.io and author of AI Security Engineering, and security leaders working through these challenges inside large enterprises.
What we'll explore:
→ Deploying AI agents in production
→ Hardening AI agents
→ AI governance vs. reality
→ Using AI to enable security
→ Attackers adopting AI
📚 AI Security Engineering — New York Book Launch
The roundtable also coincides with the New York launch of AI Security Engineering, written by Ashish Rajan and published by Wiley.
The book is a practical guide to securing the systems enterprises are now building and deploying — from AI applications, models, data and infrastructure through to agents, identities, permissions and the security boundaries around them.
Every confirmed attendee will receive a signed copy of AI Security Engineering.
👥 Who Should Attend?
This session is designed for people directly involved in building, deploying, securing or governing AI inside organisations, including CISOs and security leaders, AI and engineering leaders, security engineers, AI governance and risk leaders and practitioners responsible for bringing AI safely into production
This isn't intended to be a large conference session.
