Virtual Forum: Operationalising Vulnerability Management with Field CTO, Chainguard

The Agenda

Join our virtual Breakfast Roundtable discussion with Behn Williams, Chainguard's new Field CTO. Behn was a Director at the Bank of New York (BNY Mellon), where he led the discovery and rollout of Chainguard across a 9000+ developer organisation, as well as the rollout of GenAI coding tools, including GitHub, Copilot and Claude Code.

Our forum is an exclusive, interactive session with Behn, as we explore what it means to operationalise vulnerability management. We’ll discuss how security leaders can respond to AI-driven threats, strengthen software supply chain resilience and build practical approaches that align security, engineering and business priorities.

The discussion will also consider the latest regulatory edicts, including the ECB’s call for stronger governance, accelerated vulnerability management and greater resilience across third-party software and ICT supply chains.

This is a peer discussion designed for technology and security leaders (and those with a professional interest) to share perspectives on the challenges, opportunities and practical steps organisations can take as the threat landscape continues to evolve.

It is a rare opportunity for a thought leadership session with someone who has been at the vanguard of grappling with the complexities of modern software supply chain security and enterprise-wide AI adoption.

This forum will follow Chatham House Rule and not be recorded
