## Details Welcome to the DevSecOps London Gathering March Event on Wednesday 20 May. Along with our amazing talks we bring you the usual conversations, pizza and beer! **Location:** * 📍 **Venue:** Veracode, 36 Queen Street London, EC4R 1BN * 📅 **Date**: Wednesday, 20 May 2026 * 🕕 **Time**: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM ## Talk 1 - James Bevan **Abstract:** DevSecOps teams scan everything except the system governing their processes: Jira itself. When Jira configuration drifts, controls fail silently - workflows skip security gates, permissions grant unintended access, required fields disappear. This session demonstrates how configuration drift creates security gaps and shows live detection across workflows, permissions, and automation. With agentic AI now modifying Jira configs, continuous monitoring of your control plane isn't optional. **Speaker Bio**: James is co-founder and CRO at Solcoro, building a platform that gives Enterprises and Atlassian Solution Partners real visibility into Jira Cloud environments. Alongside Solcoro, he also runs CROquet - a UK-based GTM consulting business. He takes on a small number of advisory and project engagements, focused on incentive design and revenue architecture. This combination lets him apply GTM theory in practice, both inside a SaaS business and across client environments. ## Talk 2 - Derrisa Tuscano **Abstract** The widespread deployment of Generative AI has introduced novel security incidents ranging from prompt injection and data exfiltration to misinformation cascades that traditional incident response frameworks are ill equipped to handle. This talk introduces a Practical Incident Response Framework for Generative AI Systems designed to bridge established cybersecurity standards with emerging AI assurance principles. I will discuss a response centric taxonomy that identifies six recurrent incident archetypes and presents a structured playbook aligned with NIST SP 800 61r3, NIST AI 600 1, MITRE ATLAS, and the OWASP LLM Top 10. Attendees will learn how to reduce the cognitive load on security teams during non deterministic AI failures by using tailored runbooks, RACI matrices, and Swimlane diagrams. Ultimately, the session will demonstrate how organizations can adapt traditional response models to operationalize AI incident response effectively. **Speaker Bio:** Derrisa Tuscano is a Cybersecurity postgraduate from the University of Warwick and a published researcher in Generative AI incident response. Her professional background includes leading numerous end to end project life cycles for Applied AI solutions at Quantiphi Analytics Solutions, where she specialized in architecting virtual agents within Google Cloud environments. Derrisa has been recognized with the WMG Excellence Scholarship and the Warwick Award for her commitment to skills development. Her work focuses on bridging the gap between enterprise cloud delivery and robust cyber risk management to ensure secure and compliant AI implementation. ##

**📣**AI didn’t just change how we build products, it exposed the cracks in how we design, ship, and make decisions. **This meetup brings together three perspectives on the real challenges of AI products:** getting users to use them effectively, managing unpredictability and trust, and rethinking product strategy when execution is no longer the constraint. Together, these talks shift the focus from technology to judgment, design, and product thinking. \#\# Agenda: **18:00** \- Gather & Mingle\. **18:30** \- Opening remarks\. **18:40** -"**Shipping AI features isn’t enough**" by Ellie Jacobs, Product Director LTX @ Lightricks **19:00** - **"Shipping Products That Are Almost Right"** by Meital Kochawi Levin, Senior Product Manager @ Bringg **19:20** - **"Product Strategy in the AI Era"** by Hadas Sheinfeld, VP Product @ ProductX.biz **19:40** \- Networking & Mingle Time **20:00**\- Close 🗣️First talk by **Elli Jacobs** **"Shipping AI features isn’t enough"** Users often fail to get value from AI-based features, because they don’t use them “correctly.” This talk explores the hidden gap between capability and usage, and how product teams can design experiences that guide users toward better outcomes without adding friction or requiring education. It’s about turning AI from something impressive into something reliably useful. 🗣️ Second talk by **Meital Kochawi Levin** **"Shipping Products That Are Almost Right"** Long before LLMs, non-deterministic systems forced teams to grapple with unpredictability, trust, and imperfect outcomes. This talk distills hard-earned lessons into a practical framework for building and managing such products—defining where accuracy matters, designing for failure, and turning users into active contributors to improvement. It offers a grounded approach to making “unreliable” systems feel dependable. 🗣️ Third talk by **Hadas Sheinfeld** **"Product Strategy in the AI Era"** AI hasn’t changed the essence of product strategy, but it has removed many of the constraints that once shaped it. As execution becomes easier, the real challenge shifts to prioritization, judgment, and building long-term advantage. This talk redefines how to think about strategy in a world where speed is no longer a differentiator, and exposes the gap between teams that truly have a strategy and those that never did. \#\# Audience: * CPO * VPs * Head of Product * Product Director * Product Pros 👉 Join us for an insightful and inspiring meetup packed with practical takeaways. \* The number of seats is limited , so do hurry up and book yours. \*\* Prior to the meetup, you will receive an email containing a QR code, which you will be required to present upon entry to the event. \*\*\*We’re aware of the Tube strikes in London next week, but fortunately, from Wednesday afternoon through Thursday, train services are expected to operate as usual, so there should be no difficulty getting to the meetup.

This month we're celebrating the TENTH anniversary of the London Fabric User Group - having started life as the London Power BI User Group TEN years ago. We'd love you to join us at the offices of the aptly named Tenth Revolution to help us celebrate. # TENTH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION WITH CHRIS WEBB Chris has presented at the user group every year in May to celebrate our anniversary, and we didn't want this year to be any different. **Power BI under the bonnet**: monitoring queries and refreshes using Workspace Monitoring, Log Analytics, Profiler and DAX Studio When you're performance tuning a slow Power BI report or refresh you need to know what happens inside the engine, and the good news is that the Power BI engine can give you all kinds of detailed information on its internals. But how do you get access to this? How can you understand it? In this session you'll find out: how you can get (almost) the same information on internals from Workspace Monitoring, Log Analytics, SQL Server Profiler and DAX Studio and when to use which; which engine events are relevant to queries and which ones are relevant to refreshes; and how you can interpret this information for tuning. **Agenda** 18:30 - Welcome, drinks, pizza & networking 19:00 - Main Session 20:00 - Help us celebrate at a local pub (details to be confirmed on the night) **Venue** Tenth Revolution offices in London. Aldgate House, 33 Aldgate High St, London EC3N 1DL Please provide your first and last name when registering for the event, as this is provided to building security to allow you entrance into the venue.

Our presentation and the following conversations will focus on: * **Performance Under Pressure:** Maintaining sub-millisecond responsiveness during massive traffic spikes and critical processing windows. * **Cost Predictability:** Scaling Generative AI without infrastructure costs spiraling out of control. * **Operational Simplicity:** Reducing data stack complexity to accelerate time-to-market and innovation. * **AI-Native Infrastructure:** How Couchbase’s unified platform addresses context variability and fragmented architectures. ​**What to Expect** * ​**Executive Networking:** An intimate environment for senior technology, data, AI, and digital leaders. * ​**Strategic Insights:** Real-world examples of architecting for the future of retail. * ​**Premium Experience:** Private dining at one of London's most iconic locations
