Speaker Bio

Oege de Moor is the CEO and founder of XBOW. XBOW is an “AI hackbot” that autonomously finds and exploits vulnerabilities in web applications. He’s building it because it would be irresponsible not to do so - the good guys would fall behind. Before XBOW, Oege founded GitHub Copilot, the first hit product of the generative AI age. He came to GitHub through the acquisition of his company named Semmle, now named GitHub Advanced Security. Oege was a professor of computer science at Oxford for 22 years. Teams led by Oege have been described as an ‘engine room’ (at Oxford) and a ‘pirate ship’ (at GitHub), reflecting the buccaneering spirit he instils in his coworkers, building new technologies that were thought to be impossible.
