This session will provide a brief overview of what artificial intelligence (“AI”) is and how it can be used to augment your existing security tools. It will provide some background on AI, particularly Machine Learning(ML) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), as additional tools and skills needed by security professionals. It will discuss, demonstrate, and inform how and where to apply this technology to reduce time, costs, and risks. The demonstrations will be live and highly technical with open source platforms that are all free including Python, Scikit-Learn, TensorFlow, Matplotlib, Pandas, and Numpy.

Attendees will:

• Be able to determine if there any existing use cases where automation and machine learning could be applied with their current workload to reduce time, costs, or risks
• Learn about online free training opportunities to learn more about Machine Learning, and Natural
• Language Processing including hands-on instruction with background intuition on the concepts
