Cogent partners with Modal and LangChain for AI Heist Challenge at SF Tech Week
Published 2 October 2026
WHAT HAPPENED
Cogent Security partnered with Modal and LangChain to host an AI Heist Challenge at SF Tech Week. Participants work in teams within a fictional cloud environment to direct an AI agent through security challenges, locate a hidden proof token, and compete on a live leaderboard for prizes.
WHO IS INVOLVED
Cogent Security, Modal, and LangChain organized the event for attendees at SF Tech Week. The challenge is designed for security professionals and AI practitioners.
WHY IT MATTERS
The event addresses a growing skill gap in security training by teaching participants to direct AI agents through attack scenarios rather than performing attacks manually themselves. This reflects how security professionals must adapt to defend against AI-driven threats.
