Threat Modeling Hackathon Spring 2024 Recap

What an amazing journey it has been! Over 220 passionate threat modelers from 5 continents and 31 countries came together to tackle an AI Threat Modeling challenge in our Spring 2024 Hackathon. Despite the hurdles of time zones and busy schedules, they showed unwavering commitment to learning, growth, and deepening their security skills through deep dives into #AI #ThreatModeling.
