Session One: Hot Takes On How AI Is Changing Offensive Security, Veria Labs
A discussion of how AI has transformed hacking both offensively and defensively, as well as speculating on how it will continue to do so in the future.
About Your Speaker: Stephen Xu, Veria Labs
Stephen Xu is a Lead Security Researcher and Offensive AI expert. As Co-Founder of Veria Labs, he builds autonomous red-teaming agents that continuously test software for critical vulnerabilities. A competitive hacker by background, Stephen specializes in finding the logic flaws that static analysis tools miss—recently uncovering zero-day RCE exploits in major AI platforms.
About Veria Labs
Veria Labs is an AI-native offensive security platform focused on autonomous vulnerability discovery and exploitation. Founded by members of the #1 U.S. competitive hacking team, Veria Labs builds specialized AI agents that integrate directly into Git repositories and CI/CD pipelines to continuously analyze codebases for deep, complex vulnerabilities that traditional tools often miss. These agents operate at machine speed to identify exploitable flaws, generate real-world proof-of-concept exploits to validate risk, and reduce false positives. By combining autonomous discovery with context-aware remediation guidance, Veria Labs helps organizations shift offensive security left—enabling high-confidence validation of critical risks before they reach production.
Session Two: The Hidden Network Edge: The Risk Your Security Strategy Can’t Ignore, NetAlly
Devices and connections at your network edge are increasing more rapidly than most security strategies can address. Hidden APs, unmanaged IoT devices, and remote endpoints expand the attack surface daily. The primary risk lies in the hidden areas of your network that your current security measures may overlook.
NetAlly understands the growing risks at the hidden network edge. With over 25 years of network troubleshooting expertise, NetAlly developed the CyberScope CE to give IT and security teams unmatched visibility across their networks. The CyberScope CE connects via fiber or copper at up to 10 Gbps and delivers advanced visibility into Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7, helping you quickly identify rogue Wi-Fi networks, unauthorized IoT devices, misconfigured ports, and vulnerable endpoints.
All findings are automatically uploaded to the Link-Live™ Cloud Service, where teams can collaborate in real time with coworkers or customers, analyze results, and generate customized reports for faster remediation and documentation.
