Every year at major security conferences, you can tell the trends in security because seemingly every product and service is being positioned as “look at how we make things easier/cheaper/better.” A few years ago, that was cyber threat intelligence (CTI). Then, it inexplicably changed to threat hunting. But practitioners know that you can’t really separate threat hunting and threat intelligence any more than you can separate...

Military UAV’s Create Multiple-Mission Opportunities for Industry Military spending for this technology is expected to grow as an overall percentage of large military budgets such as the United States’ and Chinese defense budget, offering specialized drone manufacturers and software developers a tremendous opportunity. While drones will never completely replace soldiers, this debate is becoming less important in the current strateg...

Human Language Technology (HLT) cannot be “future proofed” because the target is organic, ever changing, human language. Like a weather forecast, a static model is only accurate at a point in time. What we need is the NLP equivalent of a weather app pulling in streaming live weather data. Adaptation is the future of HLT: continuously learning models that are quickly spun up with an annotation effort to “crawl”; then ada...
