Creating Confidence- Installing Trust and Reliability in an Era of Generative AI
The hype around AI is deafening and reaching the point of driving organisations to distraction. Implementing, adopting and scaling up the use of AI across the software development lifecycle can seem risky, expensive, and potentially disruptive. But it doesn’t have to be! There are many real-life, practical AI and ML use cases that software organisations can leverage today. Business and technology leaders already see the potential of AI utilised for generative code writing and predictive intelligence that will help boost DevSecOps productivity and deliver visibility, consistency, predictability, security, and reliability across the development lifecycle.
We will discuss the potential hazards associated with the use of AI, and also how enterprises can use it to their advantage. We will consider how organisations can scale up the use of AI from small teams and one-off projects to enterprise DevSecOps processes.

From CSPM to CNAPP: Defining a new approach for cloud security
In this session, learn how a successful cloud security strategy must evolve to adapt to changing business needs and cloud growth. Innovative cloud security teams are rethinking their organization's approach to cloud security, transforming it into a business enabler.

As a result, these organizations experience reduced cloud risk and gain increased agility and scalability in their cloud operations.
