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?

Securing Tomorrow - Navigating Trends in Application Security

The development process is now so elaborate, distributed, and fast-moving that it’s difficult for enterprises to fully understand and manage effectively, much less defend against attacks. Complex projects may require input from multiple teams that are often unaware of one another’s activities. They may use third-party code and open source that hasn’t been thoroughly vetted. And they may be written using automated tools and AI, which may not employ security best practices or unknowingly propagate weak or vulnerable code. 

Join experts from SANS and Synopsys as they discuss why a new approach to DevOps security is required—one that applies continuous testing to continuous development so that threats and vulnerabilities can be identified and mitigated across every step of the development process.

Shift Left to Shift Everywhere: Continuous Development's Impact on Security

The growth of software across every industry poses significant challenges for teams that need to keep up with the fast pace of innovation while making sure the software they put into production is secure. This has led to a proliferation of tools deployed by security teams. You may ask why? In simple terms, to tackle the increasing pressure of a larger and more sophisticated threat landscape. Ultimately, teams are now left with added complexity and friction in the SDLC and a bloated total cost of ownership (TCO).  

As a result, Gartner indicates an increase in organizations pursuing vendor consolidation from 29% in 2020 to 75% in 2022 to tackle the cost and complexity of present day AppSec programs. But, consolidating vendors is only one part of the equation. 

Join us, as we unlock the key to improving AppSec efficiency  in the era of rapid innovation. We delve into a differentiated approach to consolidation initiatives that extends beyond improving TCO.  

Join now and understand how to: 

- Streamline tools & processes to improve resource efficiency.
