The AI Double-Edged Sword: Protecting Our Campus in the Age of Intelligent Machines

October 30 at 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming every corner of our campus, from advanced research to daily email. But this cutting-edge technology is a double-edged sword for security.

Join us this National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM) for a high-impact presentation that moves beyond basic password tips to address the real threats of the future. We’ll explore how cybercriminals are weaponizing AI to launch PhD-level phishing attacks and hyper-realistic deepfakes (including a live demonstration of a cloned voice).

Learn the essential strategies and human vigilance needed to defend our sensitive data and digital identities against adversaries who now move at machine speed.

Key Takeaways:
The AI Threat: See a demonstration of how easy it is to clone a voice for fraud.

The New Red Flags: Learn to spot attacks when grammar is perfect and the voice sounds familiar.

Your Action Plan: Get 3 essential, non-technical steps you can take today to protect your credentials and confidential information.

Join us in-person in the DSC Meeting Room 205D (directions: in front of the Trojan Cafe entrance, turn left from the walkway to 205D)
