Upcoming Talks

European Identity & Cloud (EIC 2024)

  • Title: Where the Wild Bots Are: Stopping Bots while Minimizing Friction With AI

  • 📆 Session Outline

Bots are a scourge on customer identity and access management systems before, during and after the login process. How can we use the power of AI to find malicious bots and protect users while minimizing friction? This session presents real-life examples of bot attacks, AI-based bot mitigation techniques, quantifies their efficacy, and explores what’s next for AI in cybersecurity.

Past Talks

Identity, Authentication and the Road Ahead Policy Forum 2024

  • Panel: AI is Here - What does It Means for Identity?

As part of a panel on AI and Identity Policy, I answered questions regarding the impact of AI for identity, as a threat and as a mean for a more secure future. My main take-away for policy and industry specialists is the crucial importance of supporting the use of AI in attack detection and protection, and the need for greater collaboration between security and AI experts.



Conference on Appled Machine Learning for Information Security (CAMLIS 2023)

  • Title: Detecting SQL Injection Attacks using Machine Learning

We propose a simple, efficient, and effective method using a large real-world data set of URL requests to build a language mixture model. While this work is academic, a particular attention has been given to the production constraint of a real-world system. Our full paper is available here!
