Today’s threat landscape has shifted beyond all recognition. Software supply chain exploits, vibe coding and agentic engineers are widening the surface area of attack past human capacity to keep up. While most organizations are still getting to grips with what AI can do, a question mark hangs over who is responsible for its risks.

Whoever is liable faces  a maintenance burden unlike any seen before. How can teams ensure solid governance in this context when the playbook is yet to be written?

This panel discussion explores how risk ownership changes in a landscape dominated by AI. We’ll ask what this means for team structure and individual responsibility, and discuss the capabilities organizations need today to remain resilient.

Key takeaways:

  • How AI is broadening software supply chain risk
  • How engineering roles and responsibilities are shifting in response
  • What sound oversight looks like across both open source and internal tooling
