**Agentic AI Meets Cybersecurity - When Intelligent Agents Go Rogue** The rise of agentic AI is transforming industries at breakneck speed - autonomous systems that plan, decide, and act without human oversight. But what happens when that same autonomy becomes a weapon? AI agents that craft sophisticated phishing campaigns, adapt in real time to bypass defenses, or infiltrate networks like digital sleeper cells - this isn't science fiction. It's already happening. In this exclusive evening session, two founders at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity pull back the curtain on what's coming next - and what most companies are dangerously unprepared for. Ed Prinz, Co-Founder & CEO of NEOB (neob.ai) and bitpull.ai, will break down how agentic AI architectures work under the hood - from autonomous tool use and multi-step reasoning to real-world deployment in voice AI and business automation. He'll explore where the line between a helpful agent and a hostile one starts to blur. Adi Reschenhofer, CEO of CyberTrap, will reveal how deception technology flips the script on attackers - using honeypots, decoys, and AI-driven traps to lure threat actors into revealing themselves. When AI fights AI, the battlefield looks nothing like traditional security. Together, they'll dive into the questions that keep CISOs up at night: Can you trust an agent you didn't build? How do you defend against attacks that learn and evolve? And is the cybersecurity industry moving fast enough - or are we already a step behind? **Date: May 12, 2026** **Time: From 6:00 PM** **Venue: Max Brown Hotel 7th District - Schottenfeldgasse 74, 1070 Vienna** [https://maps.app.goo.gl/eMytvtrm4a89bS3S8](https://maps.app.goo.gl/eMytvtrm4a89bS3S8) ⚠️ Limited seats - first come, first served.

Join us for an evening about content management in large organizations, and who's actually using what. This Meetup looks at how government agencies and big companies in Germany and Austria choose their CMS. WordPress, TYPO3, Magnolia, Craft CMS, Drupal. They're all on the table. What drives the decision? Where does open source have the edge? And where does WordPress fit in when the stakes are high? Expect real-world examples, honest comparisons, and plenty of room for discussion. 🕡 18:30 live, SAE Vienna, Kaisersaal ⏱️ 18:45 – Martin Mucha **„Die CMS des Bundes: Auswahlkriterien für große Organisationen"** Germany runs a lot of TYPO3. Austria leans toward Magnolia, Craft CMS, and WordPress. But which platform ends up in which project, and why? In this talk, Martin Mucha walks through the CMS landscape in public-sector and enterprise contexts. Which systems are actually in use, what criteria drive the decision, and where each platform has its strengths and its limits. He'll cover TYPO3, Magnolia, WordPress, and Craft CMS with a practical focus on what large organizations actually care about when choosing a system. Martin Mucha is a web developer, WordPress enthusiast, and co-host of the WP Meetup Vienna. ⏱️ 19:45 – Nico Grienauer **„Open Source & Drupal in der EU"** The EU has a clear preference for open-source software. Drupal has become one of the go-to platforms in European institutions. But why? In this talk, Nico Grienauer looks at where open source is gaining ground in the EU, why Drupal specifically keeps coming up, and what that means for the broader CMS ecosystem. Whether you work with WordPress, evaluate platforms for larger projects, or just want to understand the enterprise CMS landscape in Europe, this Meetup will give you practical insights, fresh perspectives, and good conversations with fellow web professionals.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.
