Application Security

Join us in the search for the true, the good and the beautiful. Each meet is in one of two formats: a shared reading and open discussion of philosophical texts, or a continuing series of lectures based on the reading of a fascinating book of philosophy. Both formats are in Hebrew, with some reading of English texts, assisted whenever needed. We meet weekly Friday on 80 Rokach Boulevard, Tel Aviv, at the gardens of the Council for a Beautiful Israel. Welcome anyone interested in understanding life more deeply, regardless of age or prior knowledge. The love of wisdom is enough. Please join our WhatsApp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/JeAa2uRNTlF0rdrVTLzUC0?mode=wwt Note: there's always enough sitting room, but some of it is on the grass or a mat on the floor. If you want to guarantee yourself a chair, please bring one with you. Sapere Aude! (Kant's Motto: Dare to Think!)

How do large tech companies get thousands of engineers to actually adopt AI, not just experiment with it? Not just through top-down mandates, but through guilds, task forces and communities that create momentum from within. Join us for an event where engineering leaders who've done this share their playbooks so that you can do it too. **This meetup is hosted by HoneyBook Engineering and Glue.** —---- **Agenda:** 17:45 - 18:30 - Food, drinks and mingling 18:30 - 20:00 - **Hadar Bismut** \| AI Communities & Guilds Builder\, Glue *Making AI stick: How Guilds and Communities Drive AI Adoption from Within* **Daniel Kidon** \| Backend Guild Lead\, HoneyBook *Build the Road Before the Car: How Guilds Turn AI Chaos into Momentum* **Netanel Abergel** \| Director of R&D\, monday\.com; **Sergei Safrigin** \| Software Engineer\, Tech Lead\, monday\.com *From AI-Assisted to AI-Native: When Agents Become Teammates* **Asaf Bruner** \| Engineering Group Manager\, SAP *Building a Digital Brain: From AI-Ready Repos to Agents in Daily Work* **Lihi Kab** \| Sr\. Technical Program Manager\, HiBob *From Guild to Impact: Using AI Communities to Shorten the SDLC* 20:30 - More drinks and mingling! The talks will be delivered in Hebrew. —---- **Making AI stick: How Guilds and Communities Drive AI Adoption from Within - Hadar Bismut, Glue** How can organizations support their teams in adopting AI, and not just deploy tools and random use cases that don’t really move the needle on velocity or SDLC? Hadar Bismut, Founder of Glue, will map the community structures that make AI adoption stick: from AI Champions and AI communities to engineering and AI guilds, and why the most lasting change grows from real employee needs, not top-down decisions. This session sets the stage for the four case studies that follow. **Build the Road Before the Car: How Engineering Guilds Turn AI Chaos into Momentum - Daniel Kidon, Backend Guild Lead, HoneyBook** When "AI is the big bet," most companies don't get clarity first, they get scatter. Prototypes everywhere, competing approaches, no shared foundation. Daniel Kidon, Backend Guild Lead at HoneyBook, will share how their Engineering Guild built a cross-functional AI task force that shipped a standardized AI platform and working MVP in six weeks, before the product had a single final use case. **Building a Digital Brain: From AI-Ready Repos to Agents in Daily Work - Asaf Bruner, Engineering Group Manager, SAP** In large engineering orgs, AI creates real impact when it's grounded in product context, not just code completion. Asaf Bruner, Engineering Group Manager at SAP Labs Israel, will share how SAP’s AI Guild built a “Digital Brain” across multiple products: making repos AI-ready, connecting them into shared semantic context, and embedding agents into daily workflows. Expect architectural choices, what failed, and what they changed mid-flight. **From Guild to Impact: Using AI Communities to Shorten the SDLC - Lihi Kab, Sr. Technical Program Manager, HiBob** What happens when you stop optimizing individual tasks with AI and rethink the entire delivery lifecycle instead? Lihi Kab, Sr. Technical Program Manager at HiBob, will share how an AI-powered Product Guild broke the SDLC into phases, matched each with the right AI tools, and found where AI truly accelerates delivery, through community-led experimentation, not top-down rollouts. **From AI-Assisted to AI-Native: When Agents Become Teammates - Netanel Abergel, Director of R&D and Sergei Safrigin, Software Engineer, Tech Lead, monday** At monday.com, AI agents are teammates - each with a name, a role, and a team. They join engineering squads, get assigned monday items, reply in Slack threads, ship features to production, review PRs on GitHub, and monitor what they shipped. Netanel and Sergei will share how monday's AI Champions scaled the Builders organization from AI-assisted to AI native teams - where agents and humans work side by side. —---- See you soon!

Our monthly PHP meetup. A virtual shindig courtesy of Zoom. Check back here for the details around 6:15 pm

In this local meeting, you will discover knowledge that you can use to get over the past. The key to improving your personal motivation, self-confidence, and happiness is to get over your painful memories. When you become free of your past, you will be free from stress, anger, anxiety and depression. Studies show that negative emotions can affect your health. By being free of negative emotions, believe it or not, you will most likely even look younger, feel more energetic, and become healthier!

**AI in Application Security Panel Discussion** (note - this will replace the June meeting) Join the OWASP St. Louis Chapter on July 7th for an open panel discussion on how AI is reshaping application security. From AI-assisted code review and automated vulnerability discovery to the new attack surfaces introduced by LLMs and AI agents, this is a conversation that touches everyone in the industry—whether you're a developer, security practitioner, or just trying to keep up with the pace of change. Our panelists will explore the practical and the provocative: Where does AI genuinely help defenders? Where does it create new risk? How are real teams adopting these tools, and what's hype versus reality? This session is built around *your* participation. Come with your questions, your war stories, and your ideas. The best part of these discussions is what the room brings, so don't be shy—bring your curiosity and let's dig in together. **What to Expect** * Introductions and Updates on chapter events and engagement ideas * Panel Discussion (\* OWASP does not endorse or recommend commercial products or services, allowing our community to remain vendor neutral with the collective wisdom of the best minds in software security) **Event Details** 📍 **Location:** RubinBrown, 7676 Forsyth Blvd., Suite 2100, Saint Louis, MO 63105 🗓 **Date/Time:** July 7th, 2026 / 6:00pm CST **Who Should Attend** * Software engineers and developers * Application & security professionals * IT leaders and managers * Anyone with an interest in application security topics **About OWASP** The Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) is a nonprofit foundation dedicated to improving the security of software.
