Your coding agent rediscovers your API from scratch every session. Which endpoint goes first. Which field is really required. Which call returns 200 and does nothing. Sterling Chin on where that knowledge should live. apisec|con, Oct 21.

Code review used to ask "why did you write this?" Now the author is an agent whose session already ended. Sterling Chin on reviewing agent-written API code when nobody remembers why. Free, virtual, Oct 21.

Most AppSec programs aren't short on scanners. They're short on capacity, context, and evidence. Perry Menezes (ex-KPMG, Deutsche Bank) on running AI as a governed AppSec program, not another tool. apisec|con, Oct 21.

You can't recall an open-weight model. No vendor safeguards. No usage monitoring. Capability months behind the frontier. What has to change for defenders this year? Bashar Abouseido (ex-Schwab CISO) on it at apisec|con, Oct 21.

"Critical" findings that don't matter. Board reports that answer the wrong question. Prioritize by exploitability, not severity. Perry Menezes, apisec|con, Oct 21.

25 minutes. No demo. No code. You leave with a 90-day plan, an agent risk register, and five metrics to take to your CISO. Perry Menezes: How to Build an AppSec Program with Claude. apisec|con, Oct 21.

Find the bug. Write the exploit. Launch thousands of agents. Cost: almost nothing. You can't out-patch that. So what does defense look like now? Bashar Abouseido, ex-CISO of Charles Schwab, at apisec|con Oct 21:

Sterling Chin spent a summer trying to prove his own idea was worthless. Hundreds of agent sessions. Real APIs. Real credentials. He kept score. He'll show the results that went against him too. apisec|con, Oct 21.

A former Schwab CISO, a Contrast Security co-founder, and the FBI, on what changes when agents write your code and call your APIs. apisec|con · Wed, Oct 21 · 12–4 PM ET Free. Virtual. No vendor pitches. 👇

Wrong company, same request. Tenant isolation BOLA: rarer, highest blast radius. Even HackerOne's own platform had one. Two users in one org won't find it. You need two orgs. @HackWitHerr research:labs.apisec.ai/research/bola… #BOLA #OWASP #SaaS

Questions we're bringing to Bashar Abouseido next Wednesday: → Should you plan as if every attacker has Mythos-level capability? → Should your source code go to frontier models at all? → What happens to AppSec jobs? What's your question? apisec|con, Oct 21:

"Patch faster" is the most common response to Mythos-class models. Former Schwab CISO Bashar Abouseido thinks it's the wrong answer. Hear his case for hyper defense (and push back) at apisec|con, Oct 21.

If agents remember what they learn about your APIs, who decides what they remember? Stale. Wrong. Planted. Sterling Chin (ex-Postman Labs) on agent API context as an attack surface. apisec|con, Oct 21.
