Adaptive Attacks: Learning to Evade Machine Learning-Based IDS
Attackers, often employing techniques like model querying, can gather valuable information regarding the target model’s structure, parameters, and learned features, thereby gaining insights into crafting inputs that the model fails to classify correctly. This reconnaissance allows attackers to meticulously modify malicious payloads or network traffic patterns, ensuring that they resemble benign inputs to the model, thus evading detection while maintaining their damaging capabilities.

These changes within their own business culture are not, though, the only culture changes to which leaders will have to adapt. AI and other emerging technologies are accelerating the process of globalization. For example, as 3D printers become…

AI Is Neither the End of Civilization nor the Beginning of Nirvana
Where AI, robots, IoT and the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution are taking us, and how we should prepare for it are some of the hottest topics being discussed today. Perhaps the most striking thing about these discussions is how different people’s conclusions are. Some picture a utopia where machines do all work, where all people receive a universal basic income from the revenues machines generate…

AI’s Coming Impact on the Economy
Growing reliance on AI will not likely result in any of the three most common views of how AI will affect our future. Each view is founded on assumptions that fail to consider all the realities of AI. That leaves us, however, with an important question as we plan our company’s – and our own – future in an increasingly AI-enabled world: “What will that…

AI and The Great Workforce Skill Set Shift
Whether AI and the technologies it enables will reach their full potential depends on the workforce that will work alongside them. Yet the skills that that workforce needs to do this are in short supply. Rather than debating what to do about massive job losses from AI, discussion should focus on how best to prepare workers’ skills for the types of jobs that they will…

Three Views of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Future
If you’ve read the many predictions about the future of AI, you’ve likely found them to be wildly different. They range from AI spelling doom for humanity, to AI ushering in Golden Age of peace, harmony and culture, to AI producing barely a blip on society’s path toward ever-greater technological achievement. Those three views – dystopian, utopian and organic – present issues we need to…

AI Uses Today – Far More Than You Might Think
Ask people on the street how much AI uses today affect their lives, and most would probably answer that it doesn’t affect them right now. Some might say that it’s pure science fiction. Others might say that it may affect our future but isn’t used in our world today. Some might correctly identify a few ways it’s used in modern technology, such as voice-powered personal…
