Grab your coffee and buckle up, this isn’t your typical cybersecurity talk.

Join Dr. Katie Paxton-Fear, Staff Security Advocate at Semgrep, and Aubrey King, Community Evangelist at F5, as they dive headfirst into the most controversial and conversation-starting ideas in security today.

In this live “Security Rulez” session, Katie and Aubrey will go back and forth debating some of the industry’s biggest hot takes, from whether AI is actually helping security teams, to why developers might be justified in not caring about security. Expect strong opinions, candid discussion, and a good dose of humor as they unpack what’s hype, what’s helpful, and what’s just hot air.

No slides. No scripts. Just two experts speaking their minds on the topics shaping (and shaking up) cybersecurity in 2025.
