The Security of Large Language Models

Nuno Pereira LinkedIn ↗

Large Language Models (LLMs) received a lot of attention recently and it is possible to find them integrated into various applications, from well-known chat applications to content creation, search, translation and much more. We will overview LLMs and delve into some details to better understand known attacks.

SBOM, SBOM, you're an SBOM

Diogo Sousa LinkedIn ↗

Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is a concept that recently has been making waves in SDLC spaces but it isn't entirely new. Most mature languages have a (sometimes) mature package management system that allows developers to define dependencies, resolve conflicts and do composition analysis. SBOMs allow you to take this one step further, making it language-agnostic and allowing components from different ecosystems to use a common language for comparisons and analysis. OWASP is playing a part in this via its support for projects like CycloneDX which aims to provide a full-stack BOM standard. This talk covers BOM requirements, whether we reveal too much "secret sauce", the relationship between SBOMs and software security, and more.

Speaker Bio
An opinionated individual with an interest in cryptography and its intersection with secure software development.
