Renowned AppSec expert Amichai Shulman to explore the threats created by no-code tools and how to defend against them

Nokod Security, the security company for citizen application development platforms, today announced that its CTO and co-founder, Amichai Shulman, will speak at the Black Hat USA 2025 conference in Las Vegas. His talk, entitled “Of the Citizens, By the Citizens, For the Citizens: Security Risks in Citizen Developer Environments and How to Mitigate Them,” will examine the cybersecurity blind spots introduced by no-code platforms and autonomous AI agents—and how enterprises can regain control.

Nokod Security will also be demonstrating its security platform for no-code development at Black Hat USA Booth #6223.

WHO: Amichai Shulman, CTO and co-founder of Nokod Security, is an internationally recognized expert and researcher in data and application security. He was previously co-founder and CTO at Imperva for more than 15 years. Amichai is a frequent conference speaker and industry authority on cybersecurity. As an investor and advisor, he has guided successful startups, including Intsights and SkyFence. Amichai is also an Adjunct Professor at the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology.

WHAT: With no-code platforms like Power Platform and Copilot Studio empowering business users to build software autonomously, enterprises are experiencing a surge in applications and workflows created outside of traditional IT oversight. This trend—known as citizen development—is reshaping software delivery, but also introducing a rapidly expanding and unprotected attack surface.

In this session, Amichai Shulman will explore:

• Real-world security risks of citizen-developed apps and automations
• How AI-driven no-code tools TRULY increase an organization’s attack surface and exposure
• A practical framework for mitigating risks across democratized app development
• Quick demos of emerging attack techniques targeting these environments

WHEN: Wednesday, August 6, 2025 from 2:05 PM – 2:25 PM PDT

WHERE: Black Hat USA 2025, Startup City Theater, Mandalay Bay Convention Center, Las Vegas
