In the complex world of software development, generative artificial intelligence (GAI) coding tools appear as a beacon of productivity and effectiveness. When handled with precision, they brighten the path to innovation, cutting through the intricacies of coding. However, as with any unchecked flame, such tools must be carefully managed to avoid endangering an organization's valued IP, impacting its bottom line or introducing risk into an M&A transaction.

Join this webinar to get an introduction to GAI coding tools and how you can minimize risk when using these in your organization. We’ll cover:

- Introduction to GAI coding tools (from code completion to code generation)
- Legal, operational, and M&A risks arising from GAI coding tools (e.g., IP ownership, IP infringement, cybersecurity) 
- Establishing a general AI policy with provisions specifically tailored to issues arising in using AI for coding  
- Managing risk arising from GAI coding tools - this includes a mix of technical, operational and administrative safeguards (e.g., usage policies, auditing tools, optimal selection and implementation of tools) 

This presentation is intended for legal and technical teams involved in software development and M&A software due diligence.

Managing Software Risks in the Age of AI-Generated Code

Tech M&A deals move fast, and there’s not always enough time, money, or bandwidth to complete diligence on all of the software assets that you’re acquiring. So how do you prioritize what you audit so that you can feel confident that you’re reducing risk in the right places?
 
Join this live webinar to hear how a legal software due diligence expert advises clients prioritizing their software due diligence. We’ll cover: 
 
• Where audits come up and why should you care about them
• Where an audit fits into the M&A transaction process
• How to “right size” an audit and strategically select code for auditing

In January, the EU published the final version of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). While this won't come into force until late 2026, there are still actions you can take.  

The good news is most of what's required is already part of a mature modern AppSec programme.  

In this session we’ll cover some of what DevSecOps and product security teams should be planning for to address CRA, with lessons drawn from efforts present in highly regulated spaces in other jurisdictions.

What the CRA means to DevSecOps Teams

Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to push the frontiers of technology - and it's here to stay. It's influence on cybersecurity reveal a double-edged sword. AI is becoming a formidable enhancer of security measures. But with all new technologies, there is a downside to consider. AI is already used as a core tool in the arsenal of cybercriminals and its capabilities are harnessed to refine every aspect of cybercrime.

The more we see criminals that leverage AI, the more we realize that our defences are not yet equipped to counter Malicious-AI. So where does this leave us?

This session will shed light on how criminals exploit AI to elevate their malicious endeavours. Gain practical insights into the evolving landscape of cybercrime and the pivotal role of AI within it. Let's take a glimpse into a future where AI dominates the cybercrime landscape! Are you ready for the move?

How to Protect Yourself from AI Cybersecurity Nightmares

Securing your software supply chain begins with knowing what’s in your code. With AI-generated code and ubiquitous open source software use, it’s never been more critical to understand what risks your software may contain. In fact, last year alone we found that 84% of codebases contained at least one open source vulnerability.
 
Join this live Synopsys webinar as we explore the findings from the 2024 “Open Source Security and Risk Analysis” report. We’ll cover:
 
• The state of open source software security
• Tips for mitigating risks and keeping vulnerabilities out of your supply chain
• How to protect against security and IP risks from AI coding tools

The 2024 Guide to Open Source Security and Risk

Open source is widely used in software development because it allows you to create high-quality software quickly - especially with the use of AI-assisted coding tools. But if left unmanaged, open source can lead to license compliance issues as well as security and code quality risks. Whether you’re on the buy side or sell side, these risks could negatively affect valuation in an M&A transaction.

Join this Synopsys webinar for an inside look at the data Black Duck Audits complied in 2023 from the hundreds of tech transactions and thousands of codebases we audited. We’ll cover:

• Open source license and security risks by the numbers
• Why audits have become the norm in M&A tech due diligence
• How you can get a complete picture of open source risks

By the Numbers: 2024 Open Source Risk in M&A
