Keynote: The Reinvention of Software Engineering
Thursday June 25, 2026 9:15am - 10:00am CEST
I don’t need to tell you that AI has changed software development forever. You know this. Whether you’re positive, negative or indifferent to this change, you can’t deny that the past 2 years have radically changed the role of the software developer.

As an industry we have been obsessed with velocity.

We wanted every second of “developer productivity” squeezed from every dev team and designed tools, processes and practices to create the right environment for that to happen.

The velocity is here. And we don’t know what to do with it.

Many of our tools, processes and practices simply don’t make sense any more. The “unblocking” of one bottleneck in the software development lifecycle has created new bottlenecks and pressure points. This is especially true for application security teams.

The seismic shift in software is only just getting started. I don’t offer a proven strategy to navigate this change, we are sailing these turbulent waters together. What I propose is that we go back to fundamentals, refocus on outcomes and evaluate our options for evolving our software development lifecycle, safely and securely.

Fundamentals like security and reliability are as important as ever, but how do we deliver on these commitments at the pace of AI coding? What practices are gone forever, and which do we need to keep?

In this talk I bring you these options, what I’ve seen work, what I’m ready to throw out, and most importantly, the things I will keep no matter what.

Keynote: We Live in the Future: The Death and Rebirth of Application Security
Friday June 26, 2026 9:15am - 10:00am CEST
"AppSec is dead". Long live AppSec. In a short time frame we've had to reframe our thinking of "finding vulnerabilities is hard" to "vulnerability researchers may soon be out of a job", and long before developers.

Wherever the AI future may lead, and whether the user will even know that software operates in the background, as an industry we will have to adapt.

To new attack surface, such as with agents and the wider agentic supply chain (such as with the recent GitHub breach).

With a shifting focus to remediation first - if patches will even still exist.

...All the way to a world where vendors may no longer be needed, at least as they are now, and code is secure at generation.

This talk is about our industry, the change brought by AI, and most of all about relevance, from our companies and industry, to our own careers.
