On 20th November we had our first GHOST Special Session. The topic was Machine Learning Methods for Web Applications Security. It was held by Andrzej Prałat, a Machine Learning Engineer at Grey Wizard. The company he works for is a Poznań-based startup which uses artificial intelligence to quickly detect and respond to the new kinds of cyber threats. Before starting his adventure with cybersecurity, he took part in numerous data science projects and sucessfully participated in many machine learning competitions.
During the session, we learnt about novel machine learning methods in cybersecurity and discussed new challenges for data science in this area.
