The Next Cybersecurity Challenge

Role Change: AI Cybersecurity Strategist 

I am excited to announce I am taking a new role in cybersecurity. Always in pursuit of great thought-leadership challenges in the cybersecurity domain, I have found next eminent hive of ambiguity, chaos, and relevance that I can passionately dive into. I am talking about the evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and how it must be secured.    

I believe AI will significantly transform connected information technologies and devices benefiting people across the globe. It will be pervasive and revolutionary in expanding the value of technology, while simultaneously introducing equivalent risks. Wherever there is worth, threats will follow.  Attackers target what is important, provides meaning, or is worth money. Security will be a key dependency for the success, adoption, investment, and proliferation of AI.   

It will be no easy task. AI raises a number of tremendously complex problems for the cybersecurity community. It will become a hotbed of ongoing deliberation, research, and development for the next decade as the professional security community struggles to figure out how to manage the ever-growing risks, while attempting to keep pace with the rate of innovation.   

AI is the confluence of tremendous value from efficiency-gains and new capabilities, most of which we cannot yet imagine. It is an enabler for greater automated control over the physical world and at the same time is burdened with the insecurity inherent of rapidly developed connected digital technologies that will be targeted by the very best cyber-threat communities. It is a Greek tragedy just waiting to be written.    

Stepping Forward 

I am proud and honored to have accepted a role as the Cybersecurity Strategist, reporting into the Intel Artificial Intelligence group. I can only begin to envision what will unfold in the next few years across the landscape and it’s both exciting and menacing. This is the very reason I have been drawn to the daunting challenge.   

In my new role, I will focus my attention on supporting the teams that protect our development environment, services and products. Continue research, analysis, and recommendations for emerging risks and opportunities.  Advocate for best practices and thought-leadership across business, government, and academia.  Explore and influence the relevancy of AI security, in pursuit of an optimal level of risk.  Confront difficult and ambiguous security problems for the greater protection of technology security, privacy, and safety. AI security must not be an afterthought, rather it must be a forethought across the global community to keep pace with the threats.   

The sheer gravity of how future misuse of AI could impact digital security, life-safety, and personal privacy is unimaginable. Technologies and usages must be strategically aligned to give a disproportionate advantage to defenders to protect customers and communities.  It is essential that we all think ahead so we can seize upon the great benefits AI can bring, while managing the accompanying dangers. Cybersecurity, across global technology, must get better and the AI battles represent a major front. Security and technology professionals across the globe must collaborate to plot and navigate a path through these troubled waters.   

I am happy to join the crew of this ship and chase the horizon.

Is AI Cybersecurity Strategist already in the experimental stage of a system being used? I think the more we step forward the more advanced technology also we can create both software and hardware. I congratulate the inventor of AI Cybersecurity Strategist hopefully this discovery can be a good benefit for others and your cusers can benefit from the findings.

Congratulation! following

Wow, super future security !!

congrats! sounds very interesting. looks fun
