Channel Islands Information Security Forum

We're joining the Jersey Fraud Prevention Forum, States of Jersey Police, Channel Islands Financial Ombudsman and Trading Standards at West's Centre today to speak to Islanders about how they can protect themselves against fraud and cyber crime. If you're in town, pop by and say hello before 2pm.

Our next event will take place in Jersey Grant Thornton Channel Islands offices at 8am. On Tuesday 12 November, join speakers Darwin Jocson and Elaine Paola Silan from Mercedes-Benz Singapore for an insightful session on achieving greater data sharing without compromising ownership and privacy. With the long-running challenge of data privacy, accessibility, and interoperability – these pose as hurdles for organizations to share data. This session will introduce a new approach to collaborative data sharing in the digital age today. Special thanks to Cheryl K. for arranging. Sign up here: https://lnkd.in/ekKfnWSG

Our very own AI-VR-Cyber experiment! Can Cyber learn from the Education sector? Last week at Highlands College, Jersey we conducted an experiment to find a new way of delivering #CyberAwareness training using #ArtificialIntelligence. Jersey resident Phil Morris from Vizual Reality brought his VR suite to Highlands College with guest and fantasy novelist Jacqueline Florence. Students and staff immersed themselves in alternative worlds, experiencing physical and emotional sensations as their perception adjusted to the man-made scenarios. Why did we do this..? Perception and belief are everything. Phishing is a crime where the victim must be complicit, believing that what they are doing is legitimate, when really, they are responding to a made-up scenario with costly and upsetting outcomes. This experiment did not use the amazing VR equipment or visual effects from Vizual Reality for its original, intended purpose, but being adaptive (a strength in the education world) we used it to deliver a learning experience that was unexpected and memorable. Here is how our session was different from standard training: Traditional Cyber Training: En Masse; Passive, Comprehension based; Assessment based; Mandatory; Basic technology utilised; Computer-based; Theme - Cyber security; Topic - cyber centric; Approach: this is what to think and do… Our AI and VR Cyber Training Experiment: Groups and tribes; Immersive, interactive and physical; Challenge and/or experience based; Concluded with discussion and debate; Invitational; AI powered virtual reality; ‘Human-in-the-loop’ in partnership with VR; Theme: Outer space moon walks and bank heist; Topic: understanding yourself, your reactions; Approach: What do you think..? The experiment was a success and unearthed some ideas for future exploration, especially considering how Cyber and corporate communities can learn from us in Education: ·        Cyber training that fully embraces Learning Styles (Fleming) and Multiple Intelligences (Gardner) integrating AI features could create more engaging and inclusive training; can this be invented please? ·        Having restrictions for budget and time forces creative solutions that can be more powerful, how can this be developed further and repeated? ·        The education sector is currently responsible for your future workforce – should corporations with deeper pockets assist cyber training their future workforce?
