Live Presentation

Build your own agentic security solution

Thursday, August 6|11:25 AM|Startup City Theatre

Hosted by Mike Bartlett, Head of Product

Everyone is building AI agents. Day one is easy: write a prompt, call an LLM, and you've got an agent. The hard part starts on day two.

In this session we'll build a real security agent live from scratch, connecting it to a security API we've never integrated before and giving it a useful job in minutes. Along the way we'll uncover the problems every production agent platform has to solve: authentication, integrations, container execution, tool isolation, model selection, context management, memory, orchestration, and safe execution.

By the end of the talk you'll know how to build your own security agents, and why the surrounding platform matters far more than the prompt.

Meet the team after the talk
