Current security models are failing to keep up with the speed, complexity, and scale of modern software. Security professionals are doing their jobs—and yet, attacks still get through. In this session, hear the story of four people caught in the aftermath of a breach: a developer, a SecOps lead, an AppSec engineer, and a compliance officer. All working in good faith. All stuck in a broken system. This talk will introduce a new blueprint for modern software defense, modeled on the smartest of cities that have instrumented infrastructure to see, adapt, and respond in real time. Walk away with a prescriptive framework – based on context, coordination, and culture – that teams can use to stop guessing and start defending.

The session addresses critical security challenges emerging from AI’s rapid advancement and the looming threat of quantum computing. It examines the “false security paradox” where organizations dismiss future quantum threats despite current devices remaining operational when quantum computers become viable, and explores the evolution of AI-driven attacks including agentic AI, context hijacking, and autonomous attackers. The talk also covers quantum-specific risks like the “hold now, decrypt later” strategy, where adversaries collect encrypted data today for future quantum decryption. Attendees will receive a practical 90-day implementation roadmap covering asset inventory, vendor risk assessment, and security controls to build quantum-resistant, AI-aware systems from the ground up.
