Speakers & topics
1. Policy as Code
Kyverno simplifies Kubernetes policy management and enhances security in cloud-native environments, making it a valuable tool for platform engineering teams.

Benjamin Corduck is from Nirmata, our sponsor and the creator of Kyverno.

2. Using AI with Falco - your local AI Sleuth
AI security simplifies understanding security events - no further research required.

Miguel De Los Santos is an SE at Sysdig.

3. F5 AI Gateway
   An AI Gateway is a critical component for managing traffic between AI applications and Large Language Models (LLMs). We will define the main use cases of an AI Gateway, such as traffic management, access control, security, and visibility. We will delve into why traditional Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) are inadequate for handling AI traffic and introduce the OWASP Top 10 for LLMs to highlight specific security threats. We will conclude with a demo of how the F5 AI Gateway effectively implements these use cases, showcasing its practical applications and benefits.

Michael Pleshakov is a developer working on the F5 AI Gateway.

About our sponsor
