DevSecCon 2025 - The AI Security Summit. Securing the Shift to AI Native
The world of software development is undergoing a seismic shift as AI transforms how we build, deploy, and secure applications. From agentic-based interactions in your SDLC to custom AI models tailored to organizational needs, the journey to AI Native is filled with opportunities—and risks. As we navigate these uncharted waters, critical questions arise: How can we enable the AI revolution and a secure shift to AI-Native workflows? What best practices will ensure responsible development? And how do we empower AI innovation without compromising security?

We invite you to lead the conversation on the future of secure AI-driven development at DevSecCon 2025 - The AI Security Summit, a free virtual community summit hosted by Snyk, where we’ll explore the transformative intersection of AI and application security and shape the future of secure, AI-driven development.

Why submit your talk?

DevSecCon 2025 - The AI Security Summit offers a platform to spotlight your insights, bridging the gap between AI practitioners, developers, security professionals, and operations teams.
