🤖 AI agents aren't chatbots! They decide, they act, they call APIs, they handle data and when something goes wrong, you find out days later, if at all. Over the past twelve months, production agents have leaked credentials, executed unauthorized transactions, and exfiltrated confidential data through prompt injection. Classical security and QA playbooks don't catch these attack surfaces, because the trust boundary just moved, and most teams haven't caught up yet. We're gathering for an honest conversation - no theory, no vendor pitches. On the panel, practitioners who work on agent security every day, from people leading international open-source security frameworks to QA veterans who know first-hand why deterministic testing collapses in the face of non-deterministic AI. We'll talk about the new attack surfaces, real production incidents, and what every builder needs to know before shipping agents. Most AI security conversations happen behind closed doors. This one happens under the open Athens sky — accessible to all levels, beer in hand, in the city that invented public discourse.🍻 📅 **Thursday, May 28, 2026, 19:00**, we'll discuss the security of Agentic AI systems, real-world incidents, emerging attack surfaces, and what every builder needs to know before they ship. 📍 Where? **In the back courtyard of New York College, 38 Vasilissis Amalias Avenue, Athens 105 58** — a relaxed, open-air space in the heart of the city, ideal for conversation and networking. 🚌 Getting there: Right across from the National Garden: Metro: "Syntagma" Station (Lines 2 & 3) — 3 minutes on foot Tram: "Syntagma" Stop Buses: 040, 550, X14, 5, 15 (Stops "Amalias" or "Syntagma") Trolleybuses: 2, 4, 5, 11 (Stop "Syntagma") 👉 **Panel Discussion: Securing the Agentic Web** An honest conversation about the security challenges of agentic AI — what actually goes wrong in practice, what the new attack surfaces look like, and how you build AI agents that won't betray you when incidents hit. Accessible to all levels — no prior security background required. 👉 **Fireside Chat: Success Stories** Honest, first-hand accounts from teams inside Greek enterprises who deployed agentic AI into production and lived through what came next. They'll walk us through the risks they actually faced. 📋 **Program** **18:45 – 19:00: 🚪 Arrival & welcome** **19:00 – 19:30: 🎙️ Panel Discussion — Securing the Agentic Web (30')** * *John Sotiropoulos* **19:30 – 20:00: 🔥 Fireside Chat — Success Stories (30')** * *Romanos Matthaiasos* **20:00 – 20:15: 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️ Q&A — open questions from the audience (15')** **20:15 – 21:30: 🍻 Networking & Drinks (75')** 🎯 **Why you should come** 1. You'll understand how agentic AI systems fail in real scenarios — not theory, but what has actually happened 2. You'll get practical insights from people working actively in AI security 3. You'll meet builders and founders facing the same challenges as you 4. You'll connect with the Greek AI community at the largest tech gathering of the year 5. And you'll have an unforgettable evening — with a beer in hand, under the Athenian sky 🍻 **Seats are running out faster than the first beer. Book now!** 🚨 🚀 **Supporters** Thanks to New York College for hosting us and to the Panathenea 2026 team for the framework. This event is supported by HumanBound — an AI agent security testing platform that helps teams find vulnerabilities in their agents before attackers do. 🎤 **Speakers** * **John Sotiropoulos** — Leader of the global OWASP Agentic AI Top 10 initiative, one of the most important open-source frameworks for AI agent security worldwide. * **Romanos Matthaiasos** — Software QA Manager at Eurolife FFH & ISTQB Instructor. Evangelist of the shift-left mentality with 17+ years in test automation, who'll explain why classic QA playbooks fall apart in the face of non-deterministic AI. *By registering, you accept that AIandBeers and HumanBound will use your information (first name, last name, email) to organize the event and create networking opportunities.
