03 Southern California’s practitioner security summit
Cloud defenders, AppSec engineers, and incident responders. Two days in the same room, connecting the pieces of security.
01 / The summit
SunSecCon is a volunteer-driven, nonprofit security summit built for practitioners by practitioners. It brings together experts in application, infrastructure, cloud, and corporate security to break down silos and promote a unified approach to defensive and offensive security.
Learn how the pieces connected in real incidents, work through the same scenarios with other specialties, and share hard-won lessons in a candid, vendor-neutral environment.
More about SunSecCon02 / Across specialties
We especially want stories that cross specialty boundaries, where the interesting part is how the pieces connected, from agentic identities and AI workloads to cloud, supply chain, and incident response.
How agent identities reshape access control, detection, and response. Securing AI and agentic workloads, sandboxes, and MCP tools, and using AI on both defense and offense as agentic development changes security practice.
What works in multi-cloud defense, vulnerability management at AI velocity, and the platforms and culture that make secure software the default.
Case studies and incident post-mortems that cross specialty boundaries. Threat intelligence, detection, and response for human and agentic actors.
Security engineering and architecture, holistic strategies that bridge organizational silos, success stories from the trenches, emerging threats, and open-source tooling for all of it.
Program details and participation opportunities will be announced when they’re ready.
03 / Two days in Pasadena
Real-world case studies, incident post-mortems, and live demos—including securing agentic AI in production. Hear how the pieces connected across specialties.
Work the same scenarios alongside practitioners from other specialties, covering cloud-native security, AI/ML defense, agent security, and MCP tooling.
Share your toughest challenges, successes, and failures in a candid, vendor-neutral environment. Leave with insights and connections you can put to work.
