Tortora Brayda Institute for AI & Cybersecurity

Technology (Ai & PQC) will help us towards a greater cyber security fortitude. Ai efficiency allows a shift of resources to where we need them the most. #innovation #NIST #ai #cybersecurity

Another day - another story about US vulnerabilities to cyber attacks to connected automation technologies in our national infrastructure. Volt and other Typhoons are no longer theoretical threats - they are sabotage actions and actual attacks by a Nation State with a defined coercion objective (Taiwan) targeting not just Guam, but critical infrastructure throughout the U.S.. Attempts to deny life-essential services and military capabilities through the placement of cyber bombs should be the top concern of INDOPACOM and NORTHCOM supported by CYBERCOMMAND. Great coverage by Katrina Manson, but only a passing mention of NSA, and nothing from other Commands? Where are USCYBERCOM's National Mission Cyber forces? Are they actively defending Guam and US infrastructure or just operating in 14 other countries? (Please - no need to cite the restrictions of military actions on US soil - very aware of those, but the cyber domain knows no geographic boundaries) but we spend 100's of billions for missile defense...to protect critical infrastructure and our citizens. The incoming Administration has a lot of work to do, but they are recognizing the cyber defense of critical national infrastructure as a top Presidential priority to defend the Homeland.

An advisory and leadership team that includes a former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Defense, White House advisors, cybersecurity, AI, and National Security industry veterans, partnerships with some of the world's premier technology companies, and much more — I would not call anything about that 'gentle' 😉. The talent I am surrounded with seems surreal at times, but that is what happens when people answer the call to protect our societies. Our mission is clear. Now, it's time to roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty.

Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays 2024 Together, we’ve explored ideas that shape the future and fostered a community of thoughtful dialogue. May this holiday season bring you peace, joy, and moments of connection. We look forward to continuing our journey together in the year ahead.

It is my great honor to host my valued friends and extraordinary White House cyber advisors and leaders Kelvin Coleman and Ernest Wohnig in a fascinating discussion about what cybersecurity looks like at the apex of the power structure and how that can translate in transformational success in the Private sector. Join us. Join the Forbes Technology Council and Tortora Brayda Institute for AI & Cybersecurity without fail.

I am incredibly proud that I was able to bring this event to the Baltics, but none of this would have happened without our regional partner, the Intelligent VC, and fantastic social impact-oriented sponsors like Gravity Team. I am very much looking forward to accompanying Diawiser, a voice-based glucose monitoring system, to the AI for Good Summit in Geneva. It will be a busy time for me since it overlaps with other simultaneous UN/ITU summits, but I will make sure the Diawiser team gets all the support they need. The planning for next year's event has already started! #AiforGood #baltics #latvia #estonia #lithuania #startups

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody from TBI

The Cyber Eagle Project: National Security, AI, and the 4th Industrial Revolution Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the landscape of national security and defense, offering unprecedented capabilities in areas such as intelligence gathering, threat detection, and cybersecurity. However, this technological revolution also presents significant challenges, as the same AI that enhances security measures can also be exploited to undermine them. This panel will explore the dual-edged nature of AI in the realm of national security, discussing its role in enhancing defense strategies and its potential to introduce new vulnerabilities. By examining both the opportunities and risks associated with AI, the panel will provide a comprehensive overview of how governments can harness its power while mitigating the associated threats. Key Takeaways: 1. AI’s Role in National Security: Understanding how AI is being integrated into defense strategies, including its applications in surveillance, predictive analytics, and autonomous systems. 2. Enhanced Threat Detection: Exploration of how AI improves threat detection capabilities, including its ability to analyze vast amounts of data and identify patterns that may indicate potential security threats. 3. Cybersecurity Challenges and the Threat to Human Safety: Discussion on the cybersecurity risks posed by AI, including the potential for adversarial attacks, AI-driven cyberattacks, and the risks of AI system manipulation. 4. Defensive and Offensive Capabilities: Analysis of AI’s role in both defensive cybersecurity measures (such as automated threat response systems) and offensive operations (such as AI-driven cyber warfare). 5. Ethical and Strategic Implications: Consideration of the ethical implications of using AI in national security, including privacy concerns, the potential for bias, and the strategic balance of power. 6. Mitigation Strategies: Strategies and best practices for mitigating the risks associated with AI in national security, including robust security protocols, continuous monitoring, and collaboration with international partners. Join us in this dynamic discussion.
