SUMMARY:Webinar | Securely Adding AI to Your Dev Team
DESCRIPTION:AI coding tools are showing up on dev teams everywhere\, often faster than security can keep up. A lot of leaders want to lean into agents but feel hesitant because of the risks. And with things moving so fast\, it’s hard to know where to even start. \nThis beginner-friendly webinar is a starting point. We’ll look at what adopting AI on dev teams really means: it isn’t just a speed-up\, it’s a new attack surface. We’ll talk through the risks that already worry people like data exposure and over-permissioned agents\, plus a few quieter ones that are easy to overlook. Then we’ll get practical with a simple framework for adopting AI agents more safely across your development team. As with any other new technology or set of tools\, AI is best used on top of firm foundations. \nWhat You’ll Learn: \n\nWhere AI tools can introduce new risks on a dev team both technical and organizational\nWhy review capacity and understanding your own code matter for security\nA practical\, beginner-friendly framework for adopting coding agents more safely\n\nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live.

SUMMARY:Webinar | MAESTRO: Threat Modelling for Agentic AI
DESCRIPTION:The rise of Agentic AI — autonomous systems capable of perceiving their environment\, making decisions\, and taking actions to achieve goals — introduces a fundamentally new threat landscape that traditional security frameworks were never designed to address. When multiple AI agents interact\, learn\, and operate with increasing autonomy\, risks like goal manipulation\, agent impersonation\, data poisoning\, adversarial evasion\, and cross-agent collusion emerge — none of which are adequately captured by frameworks such as STRIDE\, PASTA\, or OCTAVE. \nThis session introduces MAESTRO (Multi-Agent Environment\, Security\, Threat\, Risk\, and Outcome)\, a threat modeling framework published by the Cloud Security Alliance\, designed specifically for the unique challenges of Agentic AI. MAESTRO provides a structured\, layered approach built around a seven-layer reference architecture: \n\nFoundation Models — adversarial examples\, model stealing\, backdoor attacks\nData Operations — data poisoning\, RAG pipeline compromise\, data exfiltration\nAgent Frameworks — supply chain attacks\, input validation exploits\, framework evasion\nDeployment & Infrastructure — container compromise\, orchestration attacks\, lateral movement\nEvaluation & Observability — metric manipulation\, detection evasion\, observability data poisoning\nSecurity & Compliance — security agent compromise\, regulatory non-compliance\, bias in AI security tools\nAgent Ecosystem — agent impersonation\, goal manipulation\, marketplace manipulation\, tool misuse\n\nBeyond layer-specific threats\, the session explores cross-layer attack chains — how an attacker might exploit a vulnerability in deployment infrastructure to poison training data\, ultimately compromising the foundation model — and the agentic architecture patterns (single-agent\, multi-agent\, hierarchical\, human-in-the-loop) that shape the threat surface. \nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live.

SUMMARY:Webinar | Automated Threat Modeling: MCP in Action
DESCRIPTION:Manual threat modeling is a bottleneck: context fragmentation\, repetitive data entry\, and inconsistent analysis across tools. What if an intelligent agent could think through your threat landscape the way you do? \nModel Context Protocol (MCP) enables exactly that. Instead of jumping between spreadsheets\, wikis\, and threat databases\, MCP allows agents to understand your system context and perform analysis autonomously. \nIn this session\, we’ll walk through automated threat modeling in action: \n\nHow traditional threat modeling workflows create friction and gaps\nHow MCP powered agents understand and act on context intelligently\nA live demo: threat modeling agent tackling the same scenario as manual analysis\n\nWhether you’re a security architect\, engineer\, or platform builder\, you’ll see why MCP agents are becoming the foundation for intelligent security automation. \nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live.

DESCRIPTION:Everyone is talking about AI. Join WiCyS San Diego for an honest discussion about what it looks like to use it and evaluate it from a security or compliance perspective. Environments where decisions have to hold up to audit\, data sensitivity\, and teams or customers that may not trust the tools yet. \nThree cybersecurity professionals from three different environments – banking/finance\, higher education\, and engineering – sit down for a moderated conversation about how AI shows up in their actual work. Every day. \nWhy this panel is different:\nModerator Melissa Huff will guide panelists Theresa Pon\, Jo Anna Parker Martin\, and Venus Liong through real workflows\, what works and what doesn’t\, and the unique challenges of their environments. We intend to explore AI bias and workplace constraints. The good and the bad. The final segment opens the floor to audience questions and comments. \nWho should attend:\nCybersecurity\, compliance\, privacy\, and risk professionals who want a grounded look at AI adoption from the people evaluating it inside real constraints\, not a product demo. \nWiCyS SD events are open to members and the broader San Diego cybersecurity community. Bring a question. You may end up with a workflow to try Monday morning! \nLearn more and register HERE Attendees will receive the location once they have registered.

SUMMARY:Webinar | The Harder Problem: Proving Action Correctness in the Age of Agentic AI
DESCRIPTION:Traditional detection struggles with authorized actions that trigger no alarms. This WiCyS webinar\, featuring AWS\, revisits the concept of “repudiation” to examine what it truly means for an action to be correct\, and why formal systems hit a wall when determining if an action was genuinely the right thing to do. Drawing on recent research\, the session explores the limits of detection\, why systems can only guarantee conformance to a specification rather than absolute correctness\, and how this framework applies to security for newly deploying AI agents. \nKey takeaways include a clear framework for reasoning about action correctness\, realistic understanding of current detection boundaries and practical insights into how these principles are already being implemented in AI environments \nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live.

SUMMARY:Webinar | Your Vendor Passed the Questionnaire. Now What? Rethinking Third-Party Risk for the AI Era
DESCRIPTION:Traditional third-party risk management has often centered around questionnaires and point-in-time assessments\, but today’s vendor ecosystems are changing faster than those processes can keep up. \nIn this WiCyS webinar\, Cisco will explore how AI\, cloud dependencies\, fourth-party risk\, and continuous monitoring are reshaping the way cybersecurity teams evaluate and manage third-party risk. \nCisco will also discuss how organizations can move beyond the “pass/fail” vendor assessment toward a more dynamic\, risk-based approach that combines automation and continuous intelligence with the human judgment still required to make meaningful risk decisions. \nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live.
