Funeral for the Annual Pentest by Intruder
The Annual Pentest has passed on, after years of faithful service to compliance checkboxes everywhere.
It did its best, annually. But once-a-year testing in a world of continuous deployment was never going to end well, and frankly, we think it deserves a send-off in style...
Join us for a night of mourning, mischief, and mild schadenfreude as we celebrate and commiserate the end of annual pentesting.
Here's what you can expect to learn:
What continuous security looks like and how AI pentesting is helping shape it
AI vs human-led pentesting, including safety, quality, methodology and coverage
Why white box AI pentesting gives you an advantage over black box methods
The importance of the AI harness for more robust security coverage
How to keep security and engineering in lockstep
The cost and risk management benefits of AI pentesting
We also want to promote networking among the community - practitioners, security leaders, compliance officers, auditors, all welcome - so there'll be a spooky wake with live music, finger food, themed cocktails, a healthy bar-budget, tons of Halloween decor and even more great conversations.
Better yet, it's free to attend and each attendee will receive a raffle ticket at the event for a chance to win prizes, including a free AI pentest!
We even have a confessional photo booth to offload your cyber sins…
