CISO Dinner
Join CISOs and senior security leaders for a private dinner and roundtable conversation in Palo Alto.
Our featured guest, Kashish Mittal, AI Security Lead at Salesforce, will open the evening and join a small table of security leaders for dinner.
This month’s theme: when AI finds the bugs first
It has been a busy few weeks for security teams. Two PHP vulnerabilities (PHP2Shell) and the eMudhra certificate key compromise all landed in October, and AI models played a part in finding them. Over dinner, we will compare notes on how teams triaged and patched, what changes when AI shortens the time between discovery and exploit, and how to explain it to the board.
