Seattle Security Meetup

‍Presentation #1: Secure Vibe Coding: 3 Key Lessons

AI coding assistants like Cursor, Copilot, and Windsurf significantly increase productivity and assist with mundane coding tasks. But while powerful, these tools carry risks: trained on vast public datasets, they inherit bad patterns without necessarily ensuring secure application development. 

In this talk and demo, Jenn Gile (Head of Community, Endor Labs) covers three actions you can take to improve code security: 

• Start with secure prompts
• Implement security standards
• Get real-time security signal

Presentation #2: GenAI Inspo from Security Leaders

Generative AI has the potential to reshape security programs. Whether it’s solving those impossible problems or automating toil, we’re going to talk about some real life examples of security teams using AI. Hear from the panel and ask your questions! The panel includes:

• Ammar Alim (Senior Manager, DevSecOps @ Adobe; Seattle Chapter President @ Cloud Security Alliance)
• Arjun Gopalakrishna (Principal Security Engineering Manager @ Microsoft; Seattle Chapter Co-Lead @ OWASP)
• Clara Andress (Bug Bounty Operations Manager @ Zoom; Seattle Chapter Co-Lead @ OWASP)
• Elijah Zupancic (NGINX Chief Architect @ F5)

It’s been a hot summer, and nothing is hotter in the tech world right now than vibe coding. 😎 We’re bringing together application and cloud security professionals for an afternoon of upskilling and good vibes at the beautiful F5 tower in downtown Seattle.
