AI is changing everything; from how we code to how we protect the systems that run our world. This conversation features Dustin Kirkland, SVP of Engineering at Chainguard, whose team is redefining what it means to build security from the source.
Here’s what you’ll discover:
🔹 AI as a Double-Edged Tool – How generative AI is being used by both defenders and attackers, and what that means for risk management.
🔹 Defense Starts at the Source – Why Chainguard helps organizations “start left” by building from secure, hardened base images.
🔹 The Misconception of Defense – Why defenders have more resources and smarter tools than we think.
