About the Evening
Harness is bringing together a small group of senior engineering leaders for a private event built around a shift that's already underway: the release of Anthropic Mythos and Project Glasswing has fundamentally changed the speed and economics of vulnerability exploitation. What once took weeks of manual reconnaissance can now be scaled rapidly through automated models.
This isn't just a security problem. It's an engineering opportunity. The organizations that move first — breaking down silos between security and engineering, accelerating patch cycles, designing for breach from the start — will turn proactive resilience into a competitive advantage. The ones that don't will be playing catch-up at machine speed.
Host
Adam Arellano, Field CTO at Harness, will lead the discussion. He'll share observations and emerging patterns from engineering organizations building resilience for the Mythos era — from shared accountability models and architectural hygiene to AI-accelerated defense and incident response.
Topics we'll dig into:
Breaking down silos between security and engineering — what shared accountability looks like in steady state, and how to build surge defense capability when things go wrong
Tracking your resilience metrics - accelerating patch and change velocity should be our number one priority
Shifting left and simplifying your architecture — integrating security testing into your pipeline before code ships, reducing dependencies, and shrinking your attack surface
Designing for breach: zero-trust architecture, service isolation, and short-lived tokens as defaults
Using AI to accelerate security operations — from alert triage and scan prioritization to runtime visibility and closing the gap between incident and resolution
The evening will include:
Arrival, registration, and welcome drinks
A short, focused conversation exploring how engineering organizations are building resilience in the Mythos era — from architectural fundamentals to AI-powered defense
Open discussion and peer conversation throughout the evening
Networking over food and drinks to continue the conversation with peers
Capacity is limited and the guest list is intentionally small. Passed hors d'oeuvres and drinks will be provided throughout the evening. If you have any dietary restrictions, let us know and we'll make sure you're taken care of.
