Speaker: Mark Heckman, Ph.D. Professor of Cybersecurity at University of San Diego and past ISSA-Sac president
Topic: Cybersecurity aspects of AI
Synopsis: In your role as a cybersecurity professional, you may be asked “is AI secure?” What does that question mean? Are you being asked about the security of the code, about the security of the AI algorithm, about the potential for misuse of AI systems, or about the trustworthiness of AI with respect to being used in cybersecurity systems? In this talk we’ll touch on all four of these possible ways that AI and cybersecurity can be related and discuss the ramifications of each.
Speaker Bio: Mark Heckman has worked in the field of information security for over 40 years as an engineer, researcher, practitioner and educator. His wide-ranging career has spanned many areas of information security, including research and development of very high-assurance, multi-level secure systems for use in government and the military, research and development of intrusion detection and security event management systems, and general IT security and compliance for commercial organizations in the financial and health industries.
Dr. Heckman earned his MS and PhD degrees in Computer Science at the University of California, Davis and is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP). He is currently a professor of practice and teaches in the Cybersecurity Engineering and Technology program at the University of San Diego.
