Cross-tenant 0days are fun, but war stories of migrating accounts between Orgs due to M&A, migrating applications from one cloud to another, and other things practitioners do are the meat and potatoes of this conference.

* How are you securing agents in the cloud?
- Some of you have multiple AWS Organizations. How are you managing an organization of Organizations?
- AI: Last year we received surprisingly few talks related to AI. π€― I know you all are using AI for all sorts of cloud security things. Let's hear about it! Examples:
* How easy was it to migrate CloudFormation to terraform, or to a different cloud, with an LLM to translate?
- Cloud concepts brought back to datacenters: For years people have turned their old existing datacenters into "clouds", but now you have people who have only ever used the cloud moving to datacenters. What did they bring with them?

- Neoclouds: CoreWeave, Vercel, and other code execution as-a-service. How are you securing (or abusing) those?
- Multi-partitions: How are you leveraging both AWS standard and European Sovereign Cloud? Any unexpected gotchas in ESC or other partitions?
It pains me when I hear people say "I thought about submitting a talk to the fwd:cloudsec, but didn't because..." and the reasons are often things I actually want to see presentations on! Some talk ideas I personally want to watch (the other reviewers and I will fight βοΈ):

Did you know Claude models have a "magic string" to test when a model refuses to respond? If that string enters prompt context, it can be abused to break LLM workflows until context is reset.
It's the EICAR test string of the AI age. Details:

We've locked in dates and venues for the North American (NA) and European (EU) fwd:cloudsec conferences this year!

What are we calling normal AWS now? Normal, standard, classic, commercial, global, american?
How do you say out loud the acronym for AWS European Sovereign Cloud? I'm calling it "oosk", because the region is eusc-de-east-1, which sounds like a riff on the techno onomatopoeia "boots and cats".
The most surprising thing about AWS ESC is there aren't any cookie acceptance popup windows in the console. Is this really European?

Very cool research on a CodeBuild misconfiguration which could have had significant consequences. Iβm a bit disappointed that there wasnβt more done to secure the supply chain after the Q Developer incident.

I feel like the biggest takeaway from the latest AWS outage is that thereβs simply no architecting around them at this point. Even if you are 100% redundant/multi-whatever, your vendors and customers are certainly not. Order volume is dropping no matter what you do. Weβre all in this together.
