Offensive Security in the Age of Frontier Models

A practical, technical session for founders and teams who ship software and want to understand how modern AI is changing the security landscape. This event is part of Basecamp, a community-powered tech week in Bengaluru that brings together founders, builders, and operators for hands-on learning and networking.

What to Expect

Live demonstrations: See how frontier models are used to attack real systems in real time. The session will walk through reconnaissance, vulnerability discovery, and exploitation—showing exactly how attackers can accelerate their work with AI.
Startup-specific insights: The organiser notes that two out of three funded startups they assess have serious security gaps—enough to enable account takeover, sensitive-data access, or database exfiltration. This session highlights the common, embarrassing vulnerabilities found in funded startups, from exposed secrets to broken access controls and weak authentication.
AI-generated code risks: Understand why code written with AI assistance often introduces predictable security failures, and what to watch for when AI writes a meaningful part of your codebase.
Actionable takeaways: Learn what a sensible security baseline looks like after you have already shipped, and what you need to change as attacks become faster and more automated.

Who This Is For

Technical and non-technical founders and team members with a live product who cannot confidently say it is secure.
Especially relevant if AI wrote a significant portion of your codebase.
This is not a beginner session or a software pitch—it is a deep, practical look at offensive security in the age of frontier models. Your tech team may find parts of it uncomfortable, but you will leave knowing where your product is exposed and what to fix first.

About the Organiser

Rahul N is a security professional who regularly assesses startups for vulnerabilities. This session is part of Basecamp, a free, community-driven tech week in Bengaluru that fosters collaboration and knowledge sharing among the local tech ecosystem.

Format

Live demonstrations on volunteer products and approved demo targets.
Bring your laptop and your ego—this is a hands-on, interactive session.
No cybersecurity basics will be covered; the focus is on advanced, AI-driven attack techniques.

Why Attend

In an era where AI is giving attackers a significant advantage, understanding your own vulnerabilities is critical. This session provides a rare opportunity to see real attacks in action and learn practical steps to secure your product before someone else finds the same weaknesses.
