AI Broke Your Backlog, Now What?
AI is finding more issues than teams can fix, fund, or verify. Hear how security leaders decide what matters once backlogs break.
The Hive at Black Hat USA
Black Hat is the briefing.
The Hive is the debrief.
A place to sort the signal, hosted by Bugcrowd.
The Hive is for security leaders who want to step away from the show floor at Black Hat 2026 and talk with peers about what actually matters.
If you're accountable for real systems and real risk, this is where you separate the noise, reset your bearings, and leave with a clearer point of view.
