GNSEC Singapore Ltd - All are talking aboAut AI
but WE are talking about AI Security?!!

Artificial Intelligence - between Hype and Reality
It started a few years back...I remember we attended a security show. All products shown there were spiced up by AI and deep learning. And if you asked someone on the booth for more details, the answer was always the same: AI is making the product a better product, regardless how.
AI AND SECURITY
Talking to researchers about security and AI is in general pretty difficult. Most of them do not see any reasons for such a talk - they just play with data, so why should there be a security problem? Au contraire, security is the problem, because - from their view - it slows down their development. And well, Data is exactly one of the Problems, to be more specific, the integrity of the data. The machine learning process takes every input for granted, so the result is always based on the Data the system received - there is no input check. But ML can be fooled, Data can be manipulated. If there is no permanent control on the research results (output), bad things can happen.
AI is vulnerable
AI's can be vulnerable, can be manipulated or even taken hostage - by another, enemy AI. Or they can be misused, to do things, they were never meant to do. However, this is the same that can happen to traditional software - maybe not with this "humanlike" behaviour. Just remember input validation, so essential for any web-app. Without this, data can be misused or wrong interpreteted - and we can build a similar "misbehaviour" into an AI. But the developer can also prevent this - if he knows how and if he is sensitive for this topic.
AI Training
The most critical aspect of Ai and security is knowledge. The more all involved parties are educated on the topic, the better it is. We developed several individual training programs to help the customer to integrate AI and ML into their existing security strategy and projects. The training is addressing the different groups inside the organisation and is individually adapted to each customer.
