Workload Identity & AppSec in the AI Era
Details
Welcome to the DevSecOps London Gathering – April Edition!
📍 Hosted at CyberArk, 8SBT, 1 Pear Place, London SE1 8BT
Join us for an evening of conversations at the intersection of AI and security. As artificial intelligence reshapes how we build and defend our systems, this month's meetup dives deep into how it’s transforming both infrastructure and application security.
🕕 Agenda
- 6:00 PM: Doors Open – grab a drink
- 6:15 PM: Welcome & Intros
- 6:30 PM: Lightning Talk – Workload Identity in the AI Era
Discover how to secure AI agents in a zero-trust environment, using Workload Identity to ensure they only access what they’re authorized for. - 6:45 PM: Main Talk – AI and AppSec: Are We Finally on the Verge of a Breakthrough?
We’ll explore how AI could revolutionize threat modelling, reduce bottlenecks in security reviews, and integrate more seamlessly into the dev lifecycle.
Whether you're an engineer, security pro, or tech leader, come prepared to exchange ideas, ask questions, and connect with London’s thriving DevSecOps community.

Lightning Talk -
Workload Identity in the AI era
As AI continues to revolutionize the workplace, ensuring the security of AI agents becomes paramount. How can we guarantee that these AI agents only interact with services it is authorized for?
Join this lightning talk to discover the concept of Workload Identity, how to integrate it with your AI systems, and explore strategies to enable your AI to operate within a zero-trust environment.
Main Talk -
AI and AppSec: are we finally on the verge of the big breakthrough?
In cybersecurity, AI has made significant advances, especially in threat detection, risk quantification and remediation automation.
However, perhaps in Application Security (AppSec), it hasn't fully reached its potential—yet. This talk will explore why the next big breakthrough in AI is deemed to potentially revolutionise threat modelling, an area traditionally plagued by manual processes, high complexity, and slow adoption in fast-moving development environments.
We are at the tipping point where AI can potentially understand code deeply enough to automate threat modelling, shifting threat modelling left and removing bottlenecks in the security review process. By using AI to derive data flows, identify threats and controls and continuously update threat models, we can potentially integrate security into the development lifecycle more effectively.
Join this session to discuss and discover how AI could potentially take threat modeling as code (and from code!) to the next level.
Key discussion points:
- Current AI applications in AppSec
- How AI could revolutionise threat modelling and the potential key players in this field
