AppSec in the age of Agentic Software Development
Birds of Feather session on how security engineers are keeping up with the shift in traditional SDLC
🛡️ AppSec in the age of agentic software development - how security engineers are keeping up with the shift in modern SDLC
As LLM-assisted coding and agentic workflows become the norm, application security is being redefined in real time. If you’re a Security Engineer grappling with how AppSec evolves in this new landscape -- this session is for you.
💬 Format
This is an interactive, peer-driven discussion. Bring your experiences, questions, and ideas as we explore how security is being built, tested, and enforced in modern, AI-assisted development workflows.
🧠 Topics for discussion
- Securing CI/CD pipelines with LLM-assisted coding
- AI-assisted triage and remediation workflows
