AI Tools and Security Tradeoffs

AI-driven development is opening new doors for speed and efficiency — and new questions for security. From tools like Copilot and ChatGPT to custom models, engineering leaders are navigating uncharted territory: how to unlock AI’s benefits while protecting code, data, and platforms. The risks are real — data leakage, model poisoning, shadow IT — and policies often lag behind reality.
This roundtable will create space for candid conversation about both sides of the equation: the risks that keep leaders up at night and the opportunities AI brings to security itself, from faster detection to smarter triage. Participants will share how their teams are experimenting, what guardrails they’re putting in place, and how they’re balancing innovation with caution. The goal is a peer-driven exchange of practices and pitfalls that will help leaders secure their organizations as AI reshapes the development landscape.
