Cybersecurity in the Age of AI: From Social Networking to Internet of Things
Cybersecurity in the Age of AI: From Social Networking to Internet of Things
Artificial Intelligence might contain a treasure trove of publicly-available data which can lead to deep intrusions into our lives. In this talk, the speaker will survey some of their most recent research from mining social networks to NLP audit. The talk will begin by pinpointing user locations using WeChat and Yik Yak; then go through search engine poisoning under contemporary European privacy law (GDPR), putting the most important privacy law of the decade into question. The talk will finally converge at IoT security and privacy by exposing hidden backdoors against human-centric language models and auditing IoT intelligent services.
Note: No recording of this talk is available per the speaker's request.
