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. To earn CPE/CEU credits with the following providers\, you must meet the minimum requirements: \n\nGIAC/(ISC)2: attend for a minimum of 45 minutes or the entirety of the webinar\nCompTIA: attend for a minimum of 60 minutes or the entirety of the webinar (webinar topic must relate to the certificate being renewed)\n\nAttendees who meet the requirements can log into BrightTALK to print out their attendance certificates to submit for CPE/CEU credits. \nRegister for this webinar and view the recording if you are unable to join 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 | Breaking into Cybersecurity without a degree: A Non-Traditional Path in Cybersecurity
DESCRIPTION:What does it take to land a role at one of the world’s largest tech companies without a college degree? In this session\, I share my unconventional journey from self-taught technologist to cybersecurity professional at AWS — all without formal schooling. Now enrolled in college while working full-time at a FAANG company\, this is a candid look at the realities of building a career in tech through grit\, self-directed learning\, and the power of community\, networking\, and self-education. \nThis talk will touch on how emerging tools — especially AI — are fundamentally changing what it means to learn and grow in cybersecurity whether you have a foundation in formal education or not\, using AI as a personal study partner and research accelerator to leveraging it for hands-on skill-building in areas like cloud security and generative AI at Amazon. \nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live.
