🎤 Speakers
✅ AWS Privilege Escalation Paths: A Technical Primer

📌 Nicolas Buzy-Debat, Red Team Lead, Grab

A technical session on how privilege escalation paths can emerge within AWS environments, where practitioners can study known techniques, and how the approach differs between pentesting and red teaming. Nicolas will walk through selected examples, practical ways to reason about attack paths, and recommendations for reducing privilege escalation risk through better visibility, IAM design, and security controls.

✅ Security Leadership in the Age of AI and Cloud

📌 Damian Leach, Chief AI & Digital Officer, VISTRA
📌 Donald Ong, Senior Assistant Director, Cybersecurity Agency of Singapore (CSA)
📌 Swan Chin Yeo, Head of Greater ASEAN, Okta

A leadership discussion on how security teams are navigating the intersection of AI, cloud adoption, identity, governance, and an evolving threat landscape. The conversation will explore how leaders balance innovation with risk, what security priorities are changing, and how practitioners can prepare for the next phase of cloud and AI-driven security challenges.
