About AppSec World

One global meeting place for application security leaders.

Since 2023, AppSec World has become the defining meeting place for the people securing how enterprise software gets built.

Trusted by more than 2,500+ AppSec & Engineering leaders worldwide the past 3 years, alongside the platforms, engineers and innovators deciding how software gets secured.

Software is being written faster than it can be secured, and AI has widened the gap: assistants are producing code at volume, agents are reaching into repositories and pipelines, and the supply chain underneath keeps getting attacked.

AppSec World is where the industry comes together to set the agenda, meet the people who matter and see what's coming next.

Why AppSec World

The global, trusted voice in application security

01

The room you need to be in.

At least 85% of the audience are engineers, architects and security practitioners — the people writing the code, running the programme and dealing with the same problems you are.

02

Content by practitioners, for practitioners.

Every keynote, panel and case study is delivered by someone who has actually done the work. No product pitches from the stage and no theory — just what worked, what didn't and what it cost.

03

Global insight. Local application.

AppSec World connects the same challenges, ideas and lessons across five global markets — then brings them back to what matters in your region, your regulatory environment and your team.
