As @CamlisOrg is wrapping up, reflecting how grateful I am for a tremendous community. The most fruitful plants blossom in rich soil and that's what gives @CamlisOrg its _sui generis_. I and our team at Abundant Security enjoy the benefits of that richness. Thanks to @UdacityDave and @HZoete/@alxndrdavies for exemplary keynotes, to the authors of well-researched talks and posters, and all of our amazing volunteers for making CAMLIS what it is. I couldn't be more proud of what you've made in this community and event over the last decade.

Last but certainly not least, Mahmoud Abdelfattah wraps up our Guardrails and Defense track with "kNNGuard: Turning LLM Hidden Activations into a Training-Free Configurable Guardrail", bringing classical clustering and mechanistic interpretability together for better guardrails.

Final talk in Security of Agents, and it's a good one: "Evaluating Agentic Learning Harness Capabilities Without Labels via the Scaling Hypothesis" tacking the question of how you evaluate a harness without brittle benchmarks or the circular reasoning of LLM-as-a-judge.
