Our training provides an intuitive introduction to machine learning for security professionals with no prior knowledge of mathematics or ML. In the ML4SEC section attendees will gain hands-on experience building MLpowered defensive and offensive security tools using popular libraries like Tensorflow, Keras, Pytorch, and sklearn. We’ll cover the entire ML pipeline, from pre-processing data to building, training, evaluating, and predicting with ML models. In the SEC4ML section we’ll address vulnerabilities in state-of-the-art machine learning methodologies, including adversarial learning, model stealing, data poisoning, and model inference. Participants will work with vulnerable ML applications to gain a thorough understanding of these vulnerabilities and learn possible mitigation strategies. Our training provides practical knowledge that security professionals can apply in their work
