Keynote Speaker
“The Future of Product Security: AI, Quantum Computing, and the Evolving Threat Landscape”
Jacob Combs
VP of Cybersecurity, Chief Information Security Officer | Enterprise & Product Security, Governance Tandem Diabetes Care
The rapid evolution of AI and Quantum Computing is reshaping the security landscape, challenging traditional models, and demanding a paradigm shift in product security. AI is a double-edged sword, empowering defenders while simultaneously enhancing attackers’ ability to automate, evade detection, and steal sensitive data. Quantum Computing, on the other hand, threatens to break modern cryptographic standards, requiring proactive preparation to secure the future. This session will provide practical insights and a roadmap to help security leaders leverage AI for defense, mitigate emerging AI risks, and transition toward quantum-resistant architectures before threats become reality.

Rethinking Cybersecurity for Covert Application Risks
Application and API security are stuck in a spin cycle that AI can’t save. The prevailing approach relies on developers to fix vulnerabilities while holding SecOps teams accountable for breaches, creating an unsustainable dynamic. It’s time to rethink the strategy: by detecting and responding to both attacks and vulnerabilities directly in production. Join us to see how you can evolve your security program with Application Detection and Response (ADR) to achieve more effective, efficient security.

Every APP & API Needs DDoS Protection
The escalating sophistication and scale of Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks pose a significant threat to online services. Traditional, centralized security approaches often struggle to keep pace with these evolving threats, leading to service disruptions and financial losses. This presentation will explore the critical need for a modern, multi-layered DDoS defense strategy. We will delve into the limitations of legacy systems and examine the advantages of distributed mitigation techniques, focusing on real-time anomaly detection, intelligent traffic filtering, and protocol scrubbing. By emphasizing the importance of a flexible and adaptable security posture, this session will provide an overview of best practices for safeguarding online infrastructure against the growing tide of DDoS attacks, highlighting the necessity of scalable, geographically distributed solutions for robust protection.

What’s your Security Strategy?
Hear a former Adobe and Cisco security executive share the strategies that worked as he helped protect these top companies from advanced cyber-attacks.
During the last 20 years Den Jones led teams responsible for securing some of the world’s top companies as well as security-focused startups. While at Adobe and Cisco, Den sat on Advisory Boards for some of the security industry’s top vendors and collaborated with other executives on the latest strategies. During that journey he devised an approach that is cost-effective and efficient.
In this session, we’ll talk about security strategies; we’ll get a little controversial, and then a little practical.
Let’s ask/answer a few questions:
What’s worse?
- Do you have too many tools poorly deployed, or too few tools expertly deployed?
- Should you choose suites or best of breed?
Since we always lack budget and resources then what’s the strategy? We can’t do it all but at 909Cyber we have devised an approach that will help you meet today’s security challenges whether you have a team or not.
During the session we’ll dig into this and a lot more as I provide some proven tested strategies that help thwart today’s attacks.

Stacking Your Security: A Smarter Approach to Application Defense
Modern cyber threats don’t target just one layer of your security—they exploit gaps across your entire infrastructure. A stacked security approach ensures that your applications, APIs, and networks remain protected at every stage, from DDoS mitigation at the edge to origin protection against direct attacks.
