On September 4, Edgar Salazar, Offensive Security Tech Lead at Pyxis, took the stage as a speaker at the 11th edition of TestingUy — one of the leading software quality and testing events in the region.
His talk focused on a critical and urgent topic: the security risks and threats of Generative AI (GenAI).
Beyond the promise of innovation, GenAI introduces a complex “dark side” that testing and security professionals must understand. Through a practical walkthrough, Edgar highlighted:
· Vulnerabilities such as prompt injection, data/model poisoning, and confidential information leaks.
· Why model logic itself is such a critical attack surface.
· Real-world cases and the tactics and techniques used by attackers.
It was a moment to reflect on how to balance innovation with security — and to open the conversation within the community about the challenges ahead.
At Pyxis, we work alongside organizations that want to innovate without compromising security, helping them explore how GenAI can become a trusted ally.
If you’d like to discuss how to bring Generative AI into your business securely and strategically, let’s talk.
