AI for cybercrime and for protection

In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, the arms race between cybercriminals and cybersecurity professionals is intensifying. Artificial Intelligence is at the forefront of this battle, offering both new avenues for attacks and innovative defense mechanisms. Our workshop aims to demystify the role of AI in cybersecurity, offering participants an idea of how those algorithms can be harnessed to fortify digital defenses while also examining how they can be exploited for cybercrime.
The workshop will commence with a concise overview of Machine Learning, introducing participants to fundamental concepts and algorithms that are reshaping cybersecurity strategies. Further, we will explore the ecosystem of ML-powered anti-phishing solutions, highlighting the integration of Deep Learning techniques. These case studies will serve to not only illustrate the practical utility of ML but also to inspire innovative applications of these technologies in participants' own cybersecurity practices.
