The presentation discusses the challenges in achieving digital privacy and the important role of technologists and policymakers while encouraging engagement from individuals and businesses. When talking about the complexity and the importance of digital privacy, there is currently a balancing act between privacy rights and technological advancements. As technologies in digital privacy, like encryption techniques, continue to evolve, it will be essential for policymakers, businesses, and individuals to work together ensuring that personal data is protected, and privacy rights are upheld in the digital age. In building trust, collaboration among technologists, policymakers and businesses must effectively address digital privacy challenges and protect consumer rights. To help bridge the digital privacy and communication gap between technologists and policymakers, as well as building trust among the public at large and businesses, this presentation will also include discussion on the IEEE Digital Privacy Model. The model is intended not to provide a prescription and implementation of solutions but serves as a vehicle for productive discussion on covering the broad and dynamic aspects of digital privacy issues.

IEEE DeVry University Online Student Branch & CompTIA student Club Presents “Humanizing Security – AI is not Enough.” By: Ken Fanger MBA, CMMC-RP Thursday, April 18th, 2024 (6:00 pm EST/5:00 pm CST) To Join: Click the following link: https://devry.engageli.com/devry/current/ipu-mxf-z5a/? AI is invading every aspect of our daily lives, and we depend on it for so much but in our journey to get the best AI we need to remember that it is people that are the core of all things we do. Ken dives into the expanding world of AI and cyber security and how it affects our human experience. SPEAKER BIO: Ken Fanger, President of On Technology Partners and a CMMC-RP (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Registered Practitioner), has over 30 years’ experience specializing in cyber security and information technology systems management and design, and project management. He is a proud member of the Ohio Cyber Reservist. Ken is a sought-after speaker around the country, and is author of the acclaimed book, RELAX: A Guide to True Cyber Security. Ken's current campaign is to "Humanize Security," a fundamental change toward a more holistic approach to cyber resilience and recovery. Ken is changing the narrative to put people first - both at the center of cyber-attacks AND recovery. By treating victims of cyber-attacks with dignity and respect, rather than shaming them for being attacked or hacked, people are more empowered and proactive, rather than fearful and reactive. By Humanizing Security in this way, and making it usable security, individuals, businesses, and organizations are able to build stronger, more effective defenses against cyber-attacks, hacks, and breaches. Currently focused on the manufacturing sector, Ken has also worked in the pharmaceutical, legal, medical, nonprofit, and government fields. His MBA in Operations Management enables him to understand work/process flow, while allowing him to develop strategies for an organization’s future. Ken is also one of fewer than 2,000 people to hold the designation of CMMC-RP, helping businesses with federal contracts to meet the new Department of Defense cybersecurity standards.

[] Large Language Models (LLMs) are being used widely in current Generative AI systems. Unfortunately, LLMs demonstrate significant capabilities but face challenges such as hallucination, outdated knowledge, and non-transparent, untraceable reasoning processes. Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a promising solution by incorporating knowledge from external databases. This enhances the accuracy and credibility of the models, particularly for knowledge-intensive tasks, and allows for continuous knowledge updates and integration of domain-specific information. RAG synergistically merges LLMs' intrinsic knowledge with the vast, dynamic repositories of external databases. This talk gives an overview of the structure of RAG systems and includes a demo of their capabilities. Madhu Chinnambeti is an SVP and Senior Data Scientist at SupportVectors. In his current role, Madhu advises the companies, aspiring engineers, and entrepreneurs on ML, AI, and Gen AI technology stack. Madhu has over 28 years of experience in Computer Science and Engineering and he is currently working on his PhD dissertation in the area of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and deep learning at Boise State University. Madhu is currently working on research and publications that advance GNNs under Cybersecurity and fraud detection. His passion also includes tech education in the evolving fields like Generative AI.
