LLMs, Machine learning and AI are everywhere, yet their security is often overlooked, leaving your systems vulnerable to serious attacks. What happens when someone tampers with your model’s input, poisons your training data, or steals your model?

In this talk, I’ll explore these risks through the lens of the OWASP Machine Learning Security Top 10 using relatable, real-world examples from the climate tech world. I’ll explain how these attacks happen, their impact, and why they matter to you as a Python developer, data scientist, or data engineer.

You’ll learn practical ways to defend your models and pipelines, ensuring they’re robust against adversarial forces. Bridging theory and practice, you'll leave equipped with insights and strategies to secure your machine learning systems, whether you’re training models or deploying them in production. By the end, you’ll have a solid understanding of the risks, a toolkit of best practices, and maybe even a new perspective on how important security is everywhere.
