Artur Bergman, Founder and CTO | Fastly

AI-generated traffic is decoupling internet usage from human time constraints, forcing a rethink of caching, security, and performance at scale. With decades running database-driven websites, Artur will show why AI is just another type of data for Fastly to manage. He'll share insights into the AI traffic we are seeing across our network, why sub-second latency matters for real-time interaction models and why GPUs at the edge simply don't add up.

Daniel Corbett, Principal Product Technology Mgr.  | Fastly

Billy Oreste, Director of Cloud Platform & Reliability | CarGurus

Threat actors don't rely on a single attack vector: they probe APIs, deploy bots, and flood servers with malicious traffic, and no single tool can stop them all. In this session, Daniel will be joined by Billy from CarGurus who will share how their team brings together multiple layers of security on Fastly, creating a smarter, more resilient defense. Daniel will close with a look at an exciting new addition to our security roadmap.

Moderator: Samir Sherif, Global Field CISO | Fastly 

Panelists:

Amit Kachhia-Patel | Special Agent in Charge (SAC), FBI, New York Office

Alexandra Shulman-Peleg, Ph.D, CISO | Kraken Technologies

Larry Zelvin, Head of Security Advisory | BMO Financial Group

AI is reshaping what security professionals worry about and how they demonstrate resilience to their boards. Resilience has to evolve as fast as the threat profile does, and AI is changing that profile at unprecedented speed. Samir will open this session with key findings from Fastly's Threat Insights Report, then chair a discussion with security leaders from FBI Cyber, BMO Financial Group, and the energy technology platform Kraken Technologies. As the threat landscape grows more complex, the need for partnership between law enforcement and industry has never been greater. This is a rare chance to hear practitioner, risk leader, and FBI Cyber perspectives on one stage, offering a genuine 360-degree view of the security challenges AI poses today.
