AI Security & Trust: What Builders Can't Ignore

AI is moving incredibly fast, but security and trust are often treated as an afterthought. 

That raises important questions. How do we build systems people can trust? How do we secure models, data pipelines, and agentic systems when the attack surface is constantly evolving?

Today we’ll explore what builders need to start thinking about now before these systems scale everywhere.

Paulina Xu (Agentic Fabriq)

Paulina Xu is the CEO of Agentic Fabriq (YC W26), where she is building a centralized hub for agent identity, governance, and visibility, enabling organizations to safely manage what agents can access and do across tools, applications, and users. Prior to founding Agentic Fabriq, she studied AI and physics at MIT and conducted research at MIT Haystack and the MIT Kavli Institute.

Gunjan Patel (Palo Alto Networks)

Gunjan Patel is Director of Engineering in the Office of the CPO at Palo Alto Networks, focused on Generative AI, LLM security, and agentic AI. He has hands-on production experience with Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and open-source models across agentic pipelines, harness, and context engineering. He serves on the Customer Advisory Boards at Anthropic and Cursor.

Adelina Martiniuc 

Founder and CEO at RoryPlans.ai, Adelina has over 15 years of experience in tech, including leadership roles at Vercel, Cruise, and Google. I'm currently building a multi-agent orchestrator that aligns human teams and AI agents in one system of execution. With Rory you can create agents across multiple data sources and tools, or manage agents from other platforms in one place.

Felicia Popa (Visa)

Hi! I’m Felicia Popa, a Senior Product Activation Partner at Visa and a Global GenAI Ambassador for Product. My work is dedicated to bridging the gap between cutting-edge technology and human capability—specifically by driving the adoption of Generative AI across our global product organizations in Value-Added Services, Commercial Product and Platforms and Commercial Money Movement.
