What Is BeerUP Cybersecurity Edition?

BeerUP Cybersecurity Edition is a cybersecurity meetup run by Digitalk Tech in Budapest. It combines talks from experienced speakers, real case studies and a beer in the evening.

The programme starts at 18:00 and runs to about 20:30, followed by networking. Most talks are in Hungarian. Niall's is in English.

The theme is cybersecurity in the age of AI.

What Is Niall Browne Speaking About?

Niall's session is "From the Front Lines: A Five-Time CISO's 5 Lessons, and How AI Rewrites the Rules". It is at 18:50 Budapest time and runs for 25 minutes, with Lex Moon and Justine Cross of EMEA Channels. Niall joins remotely.

The organiser lists five key topics:

  • AI-powered cyber threats
  • Autonomous AI agents
  • Identity security
  • AI supply chain attacks
  • AI governance and incident response

Niall is Co-founder and CEO of AIBound. AIBound was founded by the former Global CISO of Palo Alto Networks and Chief Trust Officer of Workday, and it was built by security operators for security operators.

Why Do These Topics Matter Now?

Because AI now shows up in how attacks start and in what employees run on their own laptops.

Binance's initial incident report, published on 3 November 2026, says an AI coding tool was the lure in June and an internal AI tool was used on 20 October to reach more engineers' computers. Binance has not named the tool or said where it ran. We went through what the report says.

On 29 October, a copy of the Claude Code extension appeared in the Cursor marketplace carrying a backdoor. Anthropic says it did not build or publish it, and that its own channels are unaffected. The Register reported that it reached up to 5,000 developers.

Employees already run AI that security tools cannot see. An AI tool on a laptop runs as the person and reaches what that person reaches.

What Does AIBound Do About It?

AIBound finds the AI agents, personal agents, MCP servers, skills, models, apps and prompts your employees run, and stops the high-risk ones in real time. It feeds the evidence into the GRC program you already run.

That is See, Stop and Govern: see what AI runs, stop the high-risk ones, and govern the rest.

AIBound does not replace your EDR, and it is not a malware scanner. Keep both.

Install takes 15 minutes. The trial is 14 days in your own environment, against success criteria you write, with no proof of concept to negotiate.
