Dec{}de 2024: Fusion Forward Experience

Once again we've been lucky to be invited to this years Decode, the annual cybersecurity conference sponsored by Trend Micro. Three ICS faculty members were able to attend this year's conference. I attended the talks on AI/ML-related topics. It is very interesting to learn how AI/ML can aid in improving malware analysis, threat intelligence, and other cybersecurity related tasks. The keynote by Robert McArdle was excellent as well as the locknote by  Ryan Flores. 

I also attened the CyberConnectED session, hosted by Rodel Villarez, which focuses on cybersecurity education in the Philippines. It's good to know that several universities have partnered with Trend Micro in developing their cybersecurity classes. 

Since my invitation to CyberConnectED was prioritized over my Dec{}de application, I was not entitled to the snacks and other freebies. At least I got a good shot. :)
