Hacktitud Summit is back for its second edition. It brings researchers, practitioners, and security leaders from across Mexico and beyond together for a day of advanced research, standout projects, and knowledge sharing. Tecnológico de Monterrey’s Mexico City campus hosts this year. Capacity is limited, and the program is built for a community focused on raising the bar for security in the region.
Bishop Fox’s Gerardo Cruz Espinosa will explain how banks keep their apps ahead of attackers. His session covers the layered defenses financial institutions use, with a close look at how mobile penetration testing and secure code review together catch vulnerabilities early.
If you build, test, or defend financial applications, catch Gerardo’s talk and stick around to talk shop.
