Cyber Attack Detection and Quick Response Strategy

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/463961

Cyber Attack Detection and Quick Response Strategy With regard to online activities, one should really be aware of the existence of cyber threats, metaphorically described as some sort of 'digital enemies' that seek many ways to compromise our systems. In this regard, we go on to discuss the very important topic entitled "Cyber Attack Detection and Quick Response Strategy," concerning recognition of the potential threats such as phishing, malware, and DDoS attack, and understand ways to handle them. We are also going to cover how to develop investigative skills that could help in the detection of irregular activities, and development of a contingency plan to be implemented when an attack is successful. We'll also look at advanced hardening strategies and why training your team and security assessments are so important. By the end of our discussion, participants will be fully empowered in the protection of digital assets, identification of any likely threats, and the neutralization of such threats to render the cyber adversary impotent. Speaker(s): Mr Sairam Durgaraju Agenda: WEBINAR: 7:00 - 8:00 P.M. The Zoom Webinar link and password will be forwarded to all registered participants after Noon on the day of the meeting. Check your spam folder if you don't see the email. Webinar is open to all. PDH certificates are available and an evaluation form will be emailed to you after the meeting.

IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar: Engineering Safer Futures – The SAFE Leader Approach to Masculinity and Inclusion in Engineering

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/463521

Join us for a transformative session exploring the critical intersections of safety, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the engineering profession. Led by Dr. Mark McBride-Wright, author of The SAFE Leader and a globally recognized advocate for inclusion in engineering, this webinar dives deep into how traditional norms of masculinity impact safety culture, workplace inclusion, and mental health in engineering. Discover actionable insights from the SAFE Leader framework—Share, Act, Feel, Empower—and learn how to foster an environment where every engineer can thrive. By addressing societal pressures, breaking down barriers, and empowering leaders to embrace DEI as a core component of safety culture, participants will leave with tools to drive meaningful change in their organizations. This webinar is a must-attend for engineers, leaders, and DEI advocates striving to create safer, more inclusive engineering spaces. Speaker(s): Dr. Mark McBride-Wright Agenda: IEEE-USA's free webinars/events are designed to help you find your next job, maintain your career, negotiate an appropriate salary, understand ethical considerations in the workplace and learn about other career-building strategies and public policy developments that affect your profession.

The Meaning Behind the Signal: How Semantics are Transforming Wireless Communications

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/466701

Special Presentation by Dr. Lina Mohjazi & Dr. Yao Sun (U. of Glasgow, UK) Hosted by the Future Networks Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (AIML) Working Group Date/Time: Thursday, 20 March 2025 @ 12:00 UTC Topic: The Meaning Behind the Signal: How Semantics are Transforming Wireless Communications Abstract: Semantic communication (SemCom) has recently emerged as a transformative paradigm, prioritizing accurate reception of message meaning over mere bits. The core concept is to empower wireless transceivers with reasoning and causality. In this talk, we will start with the basics of SemCom. Then some design challenges on both link level and network level will be introduced. We will later discuss several technical works on resource management in SemCom networks. Finally, some potential applications of SemCom will be presented. Speaker: [] Lina Mohjazi is a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) at James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow (UofG), UK. She received the Ph.D. degree in electrical and electronic engineering from the prestigious 5G/6G Innovation Centre, University of Surrey, Guildford, U.K., in 2018. She has co-authored more than 80 research papers in international high-impact journals and highly-rated conferences as well as book chapters. Her research interests include green and sustainable wireless communications, IoT’s, machine learning, energy efficiency, fundamental performance limits, and beyond 5G/6G and its applications. She is Deputy Director of the Robotics AI for NetZero (RAINZ) Centre for Doctoral Training at UofG. Dr. Mohjazi is the Women in Engineering Engagement Lead at the IEEE Communication Society UK&I. She is Fellow of Women's Engineering Society (WES) and a Senior Member of the IEEE. She served as Associate Editor for the IEEE Communications Letters (received the Exemplary Editor Award 2023).
