The day-long conference brings together over 400 participants who are immersed in highly technical and practical sessions centered around real-world attack scenarios, contemporary exploitation methods, software supply chain security, and implementable defensive tactics.

Several speakers presented actual vulnerability findings from real systems, demonstrating how attackers identified weaknesses, gained unauthorized access, escalated privileges, and ultimately compromised target environments followed by responsible mitigation and defense strategies.

Speakers explained real-world invasion paths, sharing decision-making processes, tools, exploitation chains, and lessons from bug bounty and penetration testing efforts. These sessions offered unique insights into modern attack methods beyond textbooks and labs.

Nazmul Hossain Nirab from TechnoNext discussed how attackers can compromise software supply chains by targeting the build process. Syed Faraz Abrar from Zellic explained the journey from finding vulnerabilities to discovering a zero-day in the Linux kernel, sharing insights on kernel exploitation.

Mohammad Abdullah from Augmedix talked about IoT and hardware security challenges, emphasizing security at the edge. Kazi Ashikur Rahman from Cantaloupe warned that a single misconfigured container can lead to serious Kubernetes breaches, underlining the importance of DevSecOps practices.
