The first conference dedicated to offensive AI cybersecurity, coming to Oceanside, San Diego October 5-8, 2025.

Offensive AI Con is an invite-only technical conference dedicated to the use and development of AI for offensive cyber capabilities, finding and patching vulnerabilities at speed and scale, addressing skill shortages, and coordination and discussion around the future of AI-driven security research and testing.

The conference will provide a critical forum for discussing policy, ethics, and strategic approaches to safeguarding organizations. It is intended to be an intimate setting for collaboration, cutting edge research, and acceleration of the adoption of the responsible use of AI in offensive cyber operations, vulnerability discovery, and exploit development.

Topics will include:

Autonomous AI-based security testing
Semi-autonomous offensive cyber operations
AI-based vulnerability research, fuzzing, binary analysis and vuln discovery
Exploit development acceleration using AI
Offensive Security Tool and capability development with AI
AI-based target identification and analysis (both cyber and kinetic)
OODA workflows, guardrails, and multi-stage orchestration
Offensive agentic AI frameworks and specialized models
Offensive knowledge-assistants, AI-assisted, and fully autonomous offensive applications of AI
Reducing human operator/researcher cognitive strain and addressing skill gaps
Ethical dilemmas, risks vs. rewards, responsible use of offensive AI, and the unintended acceleration of cyber-warfare
