Checkmarx Sets June 16 for Agentic AppSec Unleashed Summit

Checkmarx set a date for its second annual Checkmarx Agentic AppSec Unleashed Summit on June 16, 2026, in a virtual format. The event focuses on the security risk associated with software being deployed faster than security assurance can keep up.

In the release, Checkmarx said its 2026 research found that 75% of organizations admit they often or sometimes deploy code they already know is vulnerable. It also stated that a time-to-exploit change has shortened the window from 840 days in 2018 to less than two days in 2026, with industry research projecting that time-to-exploit will reach one minute by 2028.

The summit agenda covers secure agentic development requirements, including an evolving structure of the ADLC, AI supply chain risk, remediating vulnerabilities at machine scale, and understanding every component of an AI-BOM to maintain enterprise clarity. Topics listed also include scanning LLMs, MCP servers, and agents to validate behavior and enforce intent, plus an approach described as deterministic precision with probabilistic reasoning for coverage and accuracy.

Checkmarx said the event will bring together its leaders, including Sandeep Johri and Jonathan Rende, along with people listed from Adidas, CSG, Symmetry Systems, Deutsche Telekom, Capital One, and author Caroline Wong and host Andrew Zigler. Eran Kinsbruner said, “The backlog isn't a process problem anymore; it's a math problem.” He added, “AI-generated code is outpacing every manual remediation model in existence. This Summit is about closing that gap before it becomes unrecoverable”.

The release said the 2026 Summit builds on the 2025 inaugural event.
