🗓️ Join Us for an Exciting Meetup! 🗓️

🎤 Speaker: Gert-Jan ter Schure
🔖 Title: "Escaping the platform"
🔍 Summary: Discover how people bypass platform restrictions and make your platform do unexpected things.
In the past, (sys)admins reigned supreme, and people were constrained to local admin, excel, and hidden, business-critical, desktop servers. In the age of cloud, people have a lot more options to bypass (platform) restrictions and perform unexpected actions. In this session, Gert-Jan ter Schure will show some unintended consequences of default configurations and how a person can use this to bypass restrictions. 🚀

🎤 Speaker: Leo Visser
🔖 Title: "How you got hacked before the code hit production"
🔍 Summary: With the rise of AI coding assistants, a new attack vector has opened up for hackers! Let’s dive into the world of typosquatting and other techniques that hackers have been using. Does AI protect you against these attacks, or is it maybe even more vulnerable? 🤖💻🔒
In this talk, you will learn how hackers can use the software supply chain and target dependencies in different ways to eventually get to your code. To remedy this, you can set up artifact systems that allow you to check dependencies before they hit your code.
If you want to learn how to make your coding environment safer and prevent hackers from tricking you or your AI assistant, join this talk and find out! 🛡️🧐
