Guest Speaker at Cardiff University

Invited by Complex Systems Research Group in University of Cardiff to present my talk "A holistic view on Cyber Security in evolutionary terms (food-for-thought)". This is also part of our OWASP (OWASP London Chapter) initiative to reach out to Universities and share expert knowledge in the security and cybersecurity space.

Feedback:
"The talk was one of the most useful I have attended during my PhD because it is unusual to speak to someone who can relate between research and industry in cyber security. It was really encouraging and made me look forward to working in the space after my PhD" Matilda Rhode 

"Very Inspiring and a Great Talk" Irene Anthi

Title: 
“A holistic view on Cyber Security in evolutionary terms (food-for-thought)”

Abstract:
The Red Queen hypothesis, also referred to as the Red Queen effect, is an evolutionary hypothesis which proposes that organisms must constantly adapt, evolve, and proliferate not merely to gain a reproductive advantage, but also simply to survive while pitted against ever-evolving rival organisms in a continuously changing environment. 

Let's explore under a Cyber lens this evolutionary hypothesis in contrast to the evolving (cyber)threats and our adaptation (as professionals) to equally evolve our Cyber Resiliency capabilities (as an industry). This presentation is an opportunity to explore as professionals our security mindset and draw some personal conclusions on our Cyber Security culture in order to better ourselves.

From user awareness all the way to Cyber Resilience, from developing by writing secure code to the effort it takes in breaking it, from gaps in hiring talents to hiring for the right reasons, this brief session is intended to spark a personal "eureka" moment in the mindmap of each security professional inside and outside the room.
