TALK 1: Getting hands-on with OWASP Top 10 for LLM apps - Nigel Douglas
The OWASP Top 10 for Large Language Model Applications started in 2023 as a community-driven effort to highlight and address security issues specific to LLM-based AI applications. Since then, the technology has continued to spread across industries and applications, and so have the associated risks. As LLMs are embedded more deeply in everything from customer interactions to internal operations, developers and security professionals are discovering new vulnerabilities and, naturally, cool new ways to counter them. In this session, Nigel will show highlight these risks, providing practical guidance around prompt injection attacks. data and model poisoing, system prompt leakage, supply chain risks and so much more. He'll even discuss how to deploy your own local LLM to start testing out these hacks, security guardrails and more.

TALK 2: Subsea Cables, Intelligence Operations, and where EU Cyber Resilience might fail - by Daniel Cagney
Subsea cables underpin the internet, financial services and critical industries yet sit outside most cyber threat models. This talk explores why repair delay has become a systemic operational risk that cyber regulation quietly assumes away and why Ireland’s digital position makes that risk impossible to ignore.
