CERIAS -- the Nation's top-ranked interdisciplinary academic education and research institute -- hosts a weekly cyber security, privacy, resiliency or autonomy speaker, highlighting technical discovery, a case studies or exploring cyber operational approaches; they are not product demonstrations, service sales pitches, or company recruitment presentations. Join us weekly...or explore 25 years of archives for the who's-who in cybersecurity.

Cybersecurity practitioners face a persistent methodological problem: how should we reason about intelligent adversaries who observe our defenses, adapt their tactics, and choose targets based on our vulnerabilities? The field has responded with a fragmented toolkit. Quantitative risk assessment borrowed from safety engineering treats threat, vulnerability, and consequence as independent terms.…
The rapid evolution of connected devices and technologies has transformed the Internet of Things (IoT) into increasingly intelligent and autonomous systems. This talk focuses on the progression from traditional IoT to the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT), and further toward Agent-Based IoT (AB-IoT), also referred to as Agentic AI-enabled IoT. As intelligent agents become embedded within…
Ransomware has evolved from basic digital extortion into a sophisticated, AI-powered threat that's faster,smarter, and more devastating than ever before. In this session, we'll explore how threat actors are weaponizing artificial intelligence to supercharge their operations—from automated reconnaissance and hyper-realistic phishing to malware that adapts in real-time to evade detection. We'll also…
Annual Security Symposium. Visit: https://ceri.as/2026 Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming both the opportunities and risks within cybersecurity, creating a new landscape that today's students and researchers will soon inherit and shape. This keynote explores how AI is evolving from a supporting tool to a decision-making system, fundamentally changing how cyber threats are created,…
The rapid adoption of mobile applications for managing consumer whole-house battery and energy systems has introduced new questions about software supply chain security. While these applications are not currently integrated with critical infrastructure, their growing role in connected energy environments highlights the importance of understanding the dependencies,permissions, and external services…
Software signing is a foundational mechanism for improving software supply-chain security because it helps establish artifact provenance, integrity, and authenticity across organizational boundaries. Yet the security value of software signing depends not only on cryptographic design, but also on whether signing is adopted, integrated, and used correctly in practice. This research examines these…
As foundation models, including large language models and multimodal models, are increasingly deployed in complex and high-stakes settings, ensuring their safety has become more important than ever. In this talk, I present a probabilistic perspective on AI safety: safety risks are treated as structured distributions to be discovered and controlled, rather than isolated failures to be patched. I…
Many organizations adopt security frameworks but struggle to turn them into day-to-day operations that reduce risk without slowing delivery. This talk presents a practical operating model that pairs ISO/IEC 27001 (as the certifiable management system that runs governance, risk management, internal audit, and continual improvement) with NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 (as the outcome-focused…
Deepfake voice technology is rapidly advancing, but how well do current detection systems handle differences in language and writing style? Most existing work focuses on robustness to acoustic variations such as background noise or compression, while largely overlooking how linguistic variation shapes both deepfake generation and detection. Yet language matters: psycholinguistic features such as…
