To what extent is critical infrastructure at risk? Has there been destruction so far? What should “we” do about it? And, who is “we” – corporations, governments, citizens? Mathematical security and machine learning What is mathematical security? Explain in simple terms for a sophisticated audience? Why do we need this? What is relationship to machine learning and AI? How effective are these techniques? What are the limitations of these techniques? The future of security What will cybersecurity look like in the next 4-5 years? What will cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities look like? How will AI techniques employed by cybersecurity bad actors change the blocking, detection, and response? In other words, what will mitigation look like? Are we creating an AI arms race in cybersecurity? Staying safe - corporate What should companies do to manage security? Where does the role of Chief Information Security Officer fit? What advice do you have for boards of directors?
