A peer-level conversation on securing code in the frontier AI era.
The challenges of application security have changed. With AI generating more of the codebase — and attackers using the same models to exploit weaknesses in minutes — the challenge is no longer detecting risk, but trusting what you've found and closing it as fast as your software ships.
Checkmate! San Francisco brings together a small group of security leaders to compare notes on what that actually demands, and what it takes to lead through it.
Capture complete software risk you can trust — at predictable cost. Neither rules-based deterministic scanning nor probabilistic AI reasoning alone delivers the complete vulnerability picture. Fusing deterministic and probabilistic methods provides a single high-fidelity risk view with sustainable economics. Complete visibility into every AI component in use and its risk.
CAPTURE
Eliminate attackable risk at machine speed by bringing prevention into the point of creation. The cheapest vulnerability to manage is the one that never enters the codebase. For vulnerabilities in backlog, triage first based on real attackability and then remediate instantly with automation.
ELIMINATE
Govern and unify risk intelligence and enforce it. Every commit triggers findings from multiple controls — each with its own severity scale and interpretation. A single source of truth that correlates signals, routes findings to accountable owners, and enforces policy automatically.
GOVERN
For leaders navigating the intersection of AI, software development, and security.
Who You'll Hear From
A clear view of the closed loop. Detection through remediation on one platform, without the fragmented hand-offs that stall your teams.
Proof, not promises. How fusing deterministic and AI scanning, with attackability-based triage, cuts the noise down to what's genuinely exploitable.
A workflow your teams will thank you for. Automated triage and remediation that reduce developer burden without slowing delivery.
A leadership framework. Capture, Eliminate, Govern — a practical lens for trusting, prioritizing, and proving risk across everything you build.
A peer network. Candid discussion with leaders navigating the same shift and a clear view of what's actually working.
Detection to remediation — the loop, closed.
WE'LL DISCUSS WHAT SECURITY LEADERS NEED
WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
Can the traditional AppSec model survive AI-generated development?

Design Your Own Custom Shirt with Senszio
EXPERIENTIAL EVENT
Enjoy a one-on-one custom fitting and styling experience with Senszio. You'll work with their expert team to create a button-down shirt that’s uniquely yours - from the perfect fit and fabric to your preferred collar, cuffs, buttons, and even personalized embroidery.
Once your design is complete, Senszio will craft your fully customized shirt and we'll get it to you after the event. Come for the workshop, leave with a shirt designed entirely to your taste.
The Format
An evening designed around how senior leaders actually want to spend their time – with substance, proof, and peers.
Explore how the rapid adoption of AI is fundamentally transforming software development and cybersecurity. This keynote will examine the new risks, opportunities, and governance challenges emerging as organizations embrace AI-generated code, autonomous development tools, and increasingly complex application ecosystems. Attendees will gain insights into why traditional security approaches must evolve to keep pace with AI-driven innovation.
Join a panel of security and technology leaders as they discuss how organizations are adapting application security programs to keep pace with accelerated development cycles. Learn how enterprises are balancing innovation with risk management, overcoming resource constraints, and implementing modern AppSec strategies that support both developer productivity and security resilience in the age of AI.
Discover how security teams can move beyond identifying vulnerabilities to proactively reducing risk across the software development lifecycle. This session will showcase modern approaches to vulnerability prioritization, remediation, and continuous protection, helping organizations bridge the gap between security findings and actionable defense in increasingly AI-powered development environments.
Experience a real-world demonstration showcasing how modern AppSec technologies can identify, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities with greater speed and accuracy. See firsthand how AI-enhanced security workflows help development and security teams reduce risk, streamline remediation efforts, and accelerate secure software delivery.
Connect with peers over cocktails, appetizers and a unique local experience to exchange perspectives on securing the frontier AI era.
AI is fundamentally changing how software is built, and security leaders are being challenged to rethink how they manage risk, prioritize vulnerabilities, and keep pace with innovation. Join Checkmarx, AWS, and a select group of security executives for an evening of candid conversation about what it takes to secure software in an AI-driven world.
Unlike the briefing-style roundtables already on your calendar, this one is built to work a problem, not present one. The questions on the table:
Why leaders are joining
Governing AI-generated code. Setting policy and control for software your teams increasingly don't hand-write.
Real exposure, not noise. Separating the genuinely exploitable from the backlog of findings your tools surface.
Security at innovation's pace. Scaling protection without becoming the function development works around.
An evening shaped around how senior leaders actually want to spend their time — short on presentation, long on conversation.
The experience
Executive dinner & networking reception. An intimate, invitation-only evening in a premium private setting.
Keynote: “The frontier AI security shift.” How AI-generated code rewrites the risk model, and what governance has to become to keep up.
Executive panel: “AppSec at AI speed.” Security and engineering leaders on running a program when releases outpace review.
Checkmarx insights & live demo — from detection to defense. Watch risk move from flagged to fixed: prioritized by real attackability, remediated in the flow.
Executive exchange. Unhurried conversation over cocktails and an elevated chef-led dinner.
