Launch event - AI Security Engineer Toronto
Offense vs. Defense in the Age of Rogue AI
This is the first ever in-person event for the AI Security Engineer community in Toronto. We are looking forward to seeing you.
Venue Partner
Security Compass — hosting us at 325 Front St W.
Screening + Interactive Discussion
AI is changing the security landscape. Let’s look at it from both sides.
Join us for a screening of selected excerpts from a Black Hat talk by OpenAI researchers and engineers, followed by an interactive offense vs. defense discussion.
🔴 Offense: Think like an attacker. Identify weaknesses and explore potential attack paths.
🔵 Defense: Think like a defender. Explore detection, safeguards, and ways to respond.
Both teams will share ideas, challenge each other, and explore the topic from different perspectives, with the moderators guiding the discussion.
