Every AI agent running in your environment holds a valid identity. Valid identities don't raise alarms. This session examines why authorization, not authentication, is the real gap in agentic security, and what it takes to catch a legitimate action before it becomes a catastrophic one. 

Eve Security delivers runtime security and observability for agentic AI, enabling teams to monitor, analyze, and control real-time interactions across self-built and third-party agents, systems, and protocols while enforcing policies and reducing risk without slowing innovation. Eve's patent pending Agent-in-the-loop identifies anomalies and interrogates AI agents in real time to understand intent, validate actions, assess risk, and explain decision-making before, during, and after agent interactions.

During his presentation, Will explores how organizations can strengthen both cyber resilience and overall business resilience in an increasingly complex and threat-driven landscape.  He highlights the critical connection between cybersecurity strategy and operational continuity, emphasizing proactive risk management, rapid incident response, and adaptive recovery capabilities. Attendees will gain insight into how aligning people, processes, and technology enables businesses to withstand disruptions, protect critical assets, and maintain stakeholder trust. Through practical frameworks and real-world examples, Will's session will outline how organizations can move beyond reactive defense to build a resilient, future-ready enterprise capable of sustaining growth in the face of evolving cyber and business risks.

Snyk.io is a developer-focused security platform designed to find, prioritize, and fix vulnerabilities in code, open-source dependencies, containers, and infrastructure as code (IaC). It enables DevSecOps by integrating directly into development workflows (IDE, Git, CLI), offering actionable remediation advice. Snyk helps teams build secure software faster by reducing noise and focusing on high-risk issues.

Get ready for a fast-paced, interactive Lunch & Learn featuring live cybersecurity debates. Experts will go head-to-head on three timely topics, presenting arguments, rebuttals, and real-world perspectives. After each round, the audience will weigh in, vote on the winner, and engage in open Q&A to dive deeper into the discussion.

Debate Topics:

AI: Security Enabler or Security Nightmare?

Can third party risk be managed? Yes or no

Is identity truly the new perimeter or is that overstated?

Conifers.ai is transforming security operations centers (SOCs) with our CognitiveSOC™ AI SOC platform, enabling enterprises and MSSPs to achieve SOC excellence. By leveraging agentic AI and an organization's own institutional knowledge, we help security teams investigate complex, multi-tier incidents with transparency, speed, accuracy, and trust.

Intezer is a Forensic AI SOC for Enterprises.  Intezer’s AI SOC delivers measurable security results, not just productivity gains. By combining AI agents with a proprietary forensic toolset that includes endpoint analysis, memory scanning, file reverse engineering, and threat intelligence, Intezer provides fast, consistent, and accurate alert triage. This hybrid approach reduces heavy AI processing and achieves median triage times under one minute with predictable cost. 

Traditional incident response restores systems but often leaves the real problem untouched. Modern IFIR must reconstruct what happened, close the identity gaps attackers exploited, and harden Tier 0 to prevent re-entry. Learn what identity-centric IR looks like and how to demand more than “we restored from backup.”

Your security stack is only effective if controls are deployed correctly, configured as intended, and still working as your environment changes. In practice, misconfigurations, underused features, and configuration drift quietly increase exposure, often without triggering alerts or showing up in dashboards.

In this session, Garrett Hamilton, CEO & Co-founder of Reach Security, will walk through how security teams can continuously validate the controls they already own, identify attacker-reachable exposures across identity, endpoint, email, and network layers, and prioritize the specific configuration changes that actually reduce real-world risk. Drawing on real customer examples, he’ll show how teams move beyond one-time assessments and reactive hardening toward ongoing assurance that controls remain aligned with their defensive strategy. 

Attendees will learn how to reduce exposure without adding more tools or headcount, gain confidence that security controls are working as intended, and provide defensible, evidence-based assurance to leadership, while cutting through noise and focusing effort where it matters most.

Human Risk Management is more than training—it’s measurable, manageable risk.

This session explores how organizations identify, quantify, and reduce human-driven security risk using data,  governance, and practical controls that align security strategy with real-world behavior.
