Semgrep is a proud sponsor of BSides London this year, taking place on 12th December – straight after Black Hat Europe!
As one of the biggest BSides in the world, the event brings together thousands of security pros and enthusiasts at the Novotel London West for a full day of talks, industry insights and hands-on workshops.
In "Who Taught You to Code? Backdooring Open-Weight Models", our very own Dr Katie Paxton-Fear will explore how freely available AI coding models can be tampered with to write insecure code, and what that means for anyone trusting open-weight models.
BSides is an open platform that gives experts and practitioners the opportunity to connect with peers in cybersecurity, share ideas and insights, and develop relationships – whilst having some fun as well!
Say hello to our European team, who will be chatting about securing AI-written code, automating AppSec and much more.
