Risk Prevention in Frontier Engineering: Building with Agentic AI Without Taking on Unmanaged Risk
Date: Wednesday, November 4 at 8 PT PT / 11 AM ET
Teams building with emerging technologies like agentic AI are working where best practices are immature and the threat landscape is still being mapped. Controls designed for deterministic software struggle with systems that are non-deterministic, act autonomously, and change behavior with context.
Damian Tommasino, AI Forward Deployed CTO at Snyk, makes the case for moving from reaction to prevention. Instead of patching after incidents, teams can build risk thinking into design through threat modeling, secure defaults, and constrained permissions. He draws on real-world patterns of what goes wrong when teams move fast on new technology, and the lessons that carry over to other emerging domains.
The session closes with a practical playbook of steps your team can adopt now to keep innovating quickly without accumulating risk you can't see.
