Topics

Core talks.

Where AI Meets Zero Trust

Every enterprise just got a new kind of user. It doesn't badge in, it doesn't take lunch, and it talks to a thousand systems a second. Why the architecture that was already inline is the one AI landed on.

Agentic AI and Enterprise Security

AI agents that can escape sandboxes, execute code, and operate autonomously represent a new attack surface. What security teams need to understand right now.

Securing MCP and the Agent Toolchain

MCP is becoming a first-class traffic type on your network, whether you've heard of it or not. Registering, scoping, brokering, and logging a workforce of non-humans.

Zero Trust: What It Is, What It Isn't

Every vendor has slapped Zero Trust on their product sheet. This talk cuts through the buzzword soup and explains what the architecture actually requires.

SSL/TLS Inspection at Enterprise Scale

Most organizations have blind spots inside their encrypted traffic. This isn't theoretical. It's where attackers live. A technical deep dive into doing inspection right.

DDoS and the Physics of the Attack

Why a 3 Gbps attack can drop a 40 Gbps NGFW. The math nobody wants to talk about, and the architecture decisions that actually protect you.
