OWASP Tampa Chapter 2024-Q3 Lunch and Learn SCA in the world of AI

  • by: Endor Labs

OWASP TAMPA

Date:

  • Wednesday, September 11, 2024

Venue:

  • The Neon Temple 5406 Hoover Blvd, Tampa, FL 33634
  • Free Parking available

Time:

  • 11:00am to 1:00pm

Registration: https://www.meetup.com/owasp-tampa/events/303088588/

Description: What’s in your AI code?

With the rise in AI, there is more focus on Python dependency management and SCA scanning. Python’s dependency management system makes it easy for developers to leave dependencies out of the manifest. This means that almost every SCA tool that relies on a manifest will be wrong. We show how leveraging program analysis techniques one can avoid the pitfalls of these so-called phantom dependencies.

Agenda:

  • 11:00am - Registration and Lunch
  • 12:00pm - Speaker - Nate Michalov - SCA in the world of AI
  • 1:00pm - Depart
