AI Security Summit 2026 starts on October 15, 2026.

The 2026 summit is at Westin St. Francis in San Francisco, California.

The published audience includes AI engineers, application security teams, researchers, technology leaders, and policymakers.

It is most useful for AI engineers and application security practitioners who want to hear how peers secure deployed systems, since the program favors incident lessons, original research and live demonstrations and the speakers include Snyk founder-level voices such as Guy Podjarny and investor Ed Sim. Executives wanting a broad vendor expo or policymakers seeking formal regulatory depth would get less, as the room is pitched at builders and defenders and the sponsor list is short, with Snyk and AI Engineer.

Security and AI engineering events in San Francisco usually see casual tech dress, such as jeans or chinos with a t-shirt or casual button-down and a light jacket, with a few in business casual given the Westin St. Francis hotel venue.
