Securing AI systems and applications in today's rapidly evolving digital landscape requires a collaborative, community-driven approach. The OASIS Coalition for Secure AI (CoSAI) was established to unite diverse voices across industry, government, and academia to tackle the critical challenge of ensuring AI security. This 20-minute session will explore the vital role that community collaboration plays in addressing AI security risks and fostering practical solutions.
The presentation will begin by introducing CoSAI’s mission to drive secure AI development and highlighting the unique opportunity for the cybersecurity community to contribute to this important effort. With over 30 founding members, CoSAI emphasizes the power of collaboration in developing open-source tools, frameworks, and governance standards.
Participants will gain insights into three key technical workstreams that CoSAI is advancing to address pressing AI security challenges:
Attendees will explore three key workstreams:
- Securing the AI Software Supply Chain: CoSAI is expanding frameworks like SSDF and SLSA to address AI-specific risks.
- Preparing Defenders for AI-Driven Threats: CoSAI develops tools to counter new AI-enhanced attack vectors.
- AI Risk Governance: CoSAI is crafting governance models and readiness assessments for AI products.
The presentation will close with a call to action, inviting participants to join the CoSAI community, contribute to the ongoing development of security solutions, and help shape the future of AI security. Whether you are a cybersecurity professional, developer, or AI researcher, this is your opportunity to be part of a collaborative effort that will secure AI for the benefit of all.
Explore effective strategies for presenting cyber risk to policy and decision makers, drawing from ongoing work related to NIS2 compliance. This presentation will provide insights into translating complex cybersecurity threats into actionable intelligence for non-technical stakeholders. Attendees will learn how to frame cyber risk in a way that resonates with decision makers, highlighting the importance of clear communication in driving informed policy and strategic decisions. Discover practical approaches to bridge the gap between technical cybersecurity details and the priorities of policy and executive leaders.
In this presentation I will talk about the different types of security communities and networks, and other peer exchange opportunities like mentoring or coaching, and how to find the right format for your needs. I will share my own experiences and recommendations with the audience.
