Keynote 1: GenAI in Cloud Native: Opportunities, Risks, and Real-world Applications - by Steven de Boer

This talk explores the practicalities, risks, and rewards of Generative AI (GenAI) within Cloud Native environments. A key focus will be on the security of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) generated by models like ChatGPT - discussing potential vulnerabilities and the imperative for robust security measures. The presentation will also delve into the innovative use of GenAI in creating a zero-day attack simulator, offering a unique perspective on how AI can be utilized in proactive cybersecurity strategies. Attendees will gain insights into the dynamic interplay of GenAI and cloud security, empowering them to optimize their own infrastructure while staying aware of potential risks.

Keynote 2: HashiCorp Zero Trust Security approach for securing your Kubernetes environment - by Razvan Ghita

The talk is focused on ways to harden your security in the context of multi-cloud deployments by leveraging HashiCorp technology. Will explore the four pillars of multi-cloud security in a zero trust world: machine authentication and authorization,

machine-to-machine access, human authentication and authorization, and human-to machine access. All with a focus on Kubernetes secret management, secret zero introduction and identity-based secure communication.

Keynote 3: The AI explosion: from funny chat bot to crews of hacker agents - by Eelko de Vos, Fullstaq

A.I. has been developing since before the nineteen seventies at an exponential rate. This was not obvious to the public until December 2023. Since then, A.I. has been delivering more than amazing results in all fields of study. AI Research, development and applications are found in many places of technology, social sciences and even interspecies communication. What can we run on our own personal hardware and what can we expect in the near future? Are we safe? Will we even have jobs or will crews of AI systems run all our businesses? Follow this presentation with the occasional technical deep-dive on several AI models and the underlying technology.
