As we gear up for CloudFest's 20th anniversary next week, we're excited to share with you the highlights of the event's agenda and the speeches we're most looking forward to. This milestone event has always been a melting pot of ideas, collaborations, and breakthroughs, and this year, as we celebrate two decades of innovation and community, we're all in to make it even more memorable.
At BitNinja, we believe in the power of connection. CloudFest provides the perfect backdrop for us to meet with our valued partners and peers in the industry. But it's not just about the handshakes and hellos. We're also keenly looking forward to the engaging and thought-provoking talks on the agenda. CloudFest's lineup of discussions promises to be as illuminating as essential.
Reflecting on last year, our CEO's participation in panel discussions on WordPress security was a highlight. This year, we're eager to immerse ourselves in loads of topics around cybersecurity. Integrating AI and machine learning is a game-changer, challenging us to devise robust defenses. As AI-generated threats become more prevalent, our AI-powered malware scanner and other solutions are more crucial than ever. Furthermore, the shift towards securing cloud-native environments remains a top priority, with our focus sharpened on cloud configuration and cloud scanning solutions.
