Database Development

🔍 **Intro** Se l'intelligenza artificiale toglie il costo di scrivere il codice questo significa che il ROI è garantito? E se stiamo costruendo velocemente qualcosa che non serve a nessuno? O peggio qualcosa che serve ma non è pronta per la produzione? Un volta in produzione quanto è il costo di manutenzione ed evoluzione? Visto che il codice non lo leggo più come posso garantirmi che non riparto da zero ogni volta? Ultimo ma non meno importante: sto rispettando tutte le policy di compliance per il mio settore? Che rischi sto correndo se li violo? Di chi è la responsabilità? 🎙️**Di cosa parleremo** L'obiettivo dell'incontro è superare l'entusiasmo superficiale per l'IA e guardare dritto ai numeri. Partiremo analizzando il business case **dell'investimento in AI SDLC**, andando oltre il semplice risparmio per calcolare il *Total Cost of Ownership* e la velocità con cui un'idea si trasforma in valore tangibile (Time-to-Value). Ma i numeri non vivono nel vuoto: esploreremo come l'IA stia riscrivendo i **processi di sviluppo**, cercando il difficile equilibrio tra una delivery accelerata e il rischio di accumulare debito tecnico. Sposteremo poi il focus sulla dimensione umana, il cosiddetto **ROI invisibile**: vedremo come l'automazione, se ben gestita, possa ridurre il carico cognitivo e il logorante *context switching*, permettendo ai talenti di restare nel 'flow' e generare valore strategico invece di perdersi in task alienanti. Infine, attraverso l'analisi di **casi studio reali**, tracceremo una roadmap pragmatica per passare da una metrica basata sulla quantità di codice a una basata sui punti di margine, trasformando definitivamente l'IA in un pilastro di redditività aziendale. **📝 Agenda** * **18.15**: Accesso e Networking (iniziamo a conoscerci!) * **18:30:** Welcome * **18:45**: Talk * **19:30:** Q&A * **19:45:** Pizza and drinks Nessun meetup è completo senza un momento conviviale. Durante la serata saranno offerte **bevande, birra e pizza** per facilitare il networking e continuare le discussioni in modo informale. **⚠️ Nota importante:** I posti sono limitati per garantire la qualità della conversazione durante la tavola rotonda. Assicurati di fare RSVP il prima possibile! **Ti aspettiamo per dare forma insieme al futuro dello sviluppo software!**

Nella sede di **Subbyx**, uniremo due dei temi più caldi dell'ecosistema tech in un'unica serata. Da un lato, **Kenneth Attard, AWS Hero,** ci mostrerà come modernizzare le reti enterprise combinando AWS Cloud WAN e Amazon VPC Lattice; dall'altro, il team di **Subbyx** ci aprirà il loro playbook per svelarci come portare l'AI in produzione per risolvere problemi concreti.

Portare l'AI in produzione — dove ci sono clienti reali, flussi di lavoro reali e soldi veri in gioco — è tutta un'altra storia. Da Subbyx non facciamo pilot: gestiamo sistemi AI che parlano con i nostri utenti ogni giorno e su cui si appoggia ogni team dell'azienda. In questo talk ripercorreremo due casi reali. Il primo è Rosie, il nostro agente per il customer care che gestisce le richieste degli utenti in autonomia, dall'inizio alla fine. Il secondo è la nostra piattaforma AI interna, costruita interamente su open source — LiteLLM, LibreChat e server MCP — per dare a ogni dipendente accesso a più modelli attraverso un'unica interfaccia centralizzata e governata. Uscirete con decisioni architetturali concrete, i trade-off che le hanno guidate e le lezioni che avremmo voluto sentirci dire prima di iniziare. \-\-\- **CALL4SPEAKER**: vorresti presentare un tuo speech ai prossimi Meetup?

The Milano Cybersecurity Meetup returns with an edition dedicated to offensive security and Bug Bounty programs, no longer just about finding vulnerabilities, but about managing noise, prioritizing risk, and building trust between organizations and security researchers. The event focuses on the role of the Ethical Hacker and the critical, often misunderstood, role of the triager, the professional who bridges vulnerability discovery with actionable remediation.The meetup will close with a talk by Sw33tLie, one of the main contributors to PortSwigger’s latest research, exploring the discovery and exploitation of HTTP Request Smuggling vulnerabilities in modern architectures. This evening event combines focused technical talks with an informal aperitivo atmosphere, where hoodies replace ties and technical content meets open discussion and networking. Co-organized with UNGUESS Security, a European Continuous Offensive Platform backed by a community of 200+ vetted ethical hackers and AI agents, the event offers a unique chance to hear from practitioners on different sides of the hacking process. The event will also welcome representatives from Intigriti, including Alex Olsen, Head of Hackers, who will join us to make the evening even more exciting. ## **Key Themes & Takeaways** *“Today, being an ethical hacker means staying ahead of attackers, finding the bugs and fixing risk before it’s exploited by malicious actors.”* * Finding bugs for learning, passion, and profit, and building a legal career path by hacking real organizations responsibly * What makes a great triager in bug hunting programs - skills, mindset, and career paths * How triage quality impacts program ROI, security outcomes, and researcher trust * Dealing with AI-generated submissions ("AI slop") and the triager’s evolving role as quality gatekeeper, separating signal from noise * Some of the most impactful vulnerabilities originate from protocol‑level flaws, turning seemingly theoretical research into systemic risk for large‑scale infrastructures and forcing modern triage to reassess impact and prioritization ## **Agenda** * **Talk #1 — My path to Bug Bounty (Leo Racanelli, Intigriti Ambassador)** Hacking real organizations (legally) for fun and profit * **Talk #2 — Anatomy of a Triage: From vulnerability submission to validation (Marco Mazzola, UNGUESS Triager)** What happens between “submission received” and “vulnerability confirmed.” A deep dive into the triager’s workflow What researchers wish triagers understood. How triage quality shapes submission quality and vice versa How AI-generated submissions are flooding programs, why most are noise, and what a good triage policy looks like * **Talk #3 — Mutations of a Bug: Where HTTP Smuggling Is Heading (Paolo Arnolfo, aka Sw33tLie — 1st researcher on the Portugal Bugcrowd leaderboard)** An evolution-driven look at HTTP Request Smuggling: how exploitation techniques mutate over time, why old assumptions no longer hold, and what this means for modern triage, detection, and remediation ## **Registration** Free access (registration required) Register for the event **[here](https://luma.com/event/evt-Me1ePdISbrIotuu)** Participation is subject to confirmation, as spots are limited. *Photos and videos may be taken during the event and shared on social media.
