Policy Officer for Counter Terrorism at the European Commission - London School of Economics graduate - NOVA 111 Italy Talent List
Interesting two days at the APPRAISE project final event, where we discussed, among other topics, the importance of public-private partnerships, training, and respect for fundamental rights and freedoms while effectively securing and protecting public spaces from terrorist attacks.
APPRAISE will utilise data analysis, AI, and visualisation to improve the cyber and physical security and safety of public spaces. Funded by the European Commission's Horizon 2020 under grant agreement number 101021981.
How do we find the balance between privacy, surveillance and security in the protection of public spaces? Chaired by Sónia M., Petra Saskia Bayerl, Nina Czyżewska, Maria Ismaela Murgia and Pedro Moura spoke in our second panel about the findings of the APPRAISE societal acceptance study, the activities of the SHIELD4CROWD Project, the support and policy direction from DG Home, and PSP's experiences from the World Youth Day.

As we celebrate Independence Day, it's fascinating to look back at the forms of communication used during the Revolutionary War. The fife and bugle corps played a crucial role in relaying commands and boosting morale on the battlefield. Additionally, cryptographic written messages were utilized to send secret information between commanders, highlighting the importance of secure communication even in the 18th century. Fast forward to today, and we see the legacy of cryptography in modern technology. Algorithms, encryption keys, and other advances continue to protect our digital communication and data privacy. The principles developed during the Revolutionary War still resonate in our cybersecurity measures today. Happy Independence Day! Let's remember the innovative communication methods of the past as we celebrate our nation's freedom.

creating the "illusion of truth" through repetition and manipulation is a key aspect of fifth-generation warfare (5GW). In the context of 5GW, this technique is used to achieve strategic objectives, such as undermining trust in institutions, creating divisions within societies, and shaping public opinion. It is often used in conjunction with other tactics, such as disinformation, psychological warfare, and cyber warfare, to create a comprehensive information campaign. #How liars create the 'illusion of truth'“Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth”, is a law of propaganda often attributed to the Nazi Joseph Goebbels.

In a public conference on space, a notable senior defense leader used the phrase “Battlestar Galactica” to refer to large, expensive legacy systems. This is often used in a negative context. Like the things we have are “Battlestar Galacticas” but what we need is a hyper agile, networked, fully integrated system-of-systems providing joint all domain command and control and driving decision advantage through multi-sensor fusion and adaptive capacity with Agile resiliency to advance the operational initiative of integrated forces. But the entire plot of the television show “Battlestar Galactica” (2004) is that an AI-powered robot civilization penetrated the network and disabled all of humankind’s defensive capabilities in a single, massive, coordinated cyber attack. And the only thing that’s left is the crusty old Battlestar Galactica that wasn’t connected to the network.

The Caesar Cipher Did you know? One of the earliest and simplest methods of encryption was used by Julius Caesar to protect his military communications. This method, known as the Caesar Cipher, involves shifting each letter in a message by a fixed number of positions in the alphabet. For example, with a shift of 3: A becomes D B becomes E C becomes F To encrypt the word "HELLO" with a shift of 3, it becomes "KHOOR". To decrypt the message, you simply shift the letters back by 3 positions to reveal the original text. While the Caesar Cipher is not secure by today's standards, it laid the foundation for modern cryptography!

🌐🤝Yesterday, we joined forces with our international partners, including the UK UCSC, to address the cybersecurity of civil society under threat from transnational repression. Civil society organizations champion human rights and democracy, but they're increasingly targeted by sophisticated cyber actors and linked to authoritarian regimes. In this inaugural Strategic Dialogue, we, along with governments from Australia, Canada, Estonia, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, and the UK, discussed strategies to enhance civil society's cybersecurity. Together, we're forging a safer digital space for high-risk communities. To learn more about our collaborative efforts in this critical domain: go.dhs.gov/odC

If you have an emotional reaction to information, you are being manipulated. That's how information warfare works. Instead, think rationally about who benefits from that emotional reaction. Sometimes it is more than click bait. Don't focus on the movement of pawns, instead understand why the hand moves them. "The objective, the report concludes, is to do far more than simply oppose Israel's new war. The NCRI finds that the increase in direct-action, targeting infrastructure and public places, is in part driven by organizations connected to CCP foreign influence efforts. While nominally focused on Israel, the current protests can be better understood as a well-funded initiative driving a revolutionary, anti-government, and anti-capitalist agenda, with the leading organizations serving as versatile tools for foreign entities hostile to the U.S. The methods of these organizations exacerbate societal tensions, polarize the younger generation, and appear to seek the destabilization of American institutions." https://lnkd.in/epd3kP8s #InformationWarfare #Disinformation #Cyber #ThreatActors #GeoPoliticalChess Pablo Breuer, Ph.D. Daniella Taveau 🇺🇸🇮🇱🇺🇦 Whitney Bowman-Zatzkin Andrew Jason Allison Hohn

Law & Technology Leader | Top 100 Lawyer, Philippines | Data Privacy, Cybersecurity, and Artificial Intelligence Initiatives | Data Privacy & Protection Lawyer of the Year (PH Law Awards, 2023)
I am thrilled to speak about how AI can transform justice systems and be utterly nation-defining. In a few minutes, I will speak and develop the following points: 💡 Legal Technology will be the most affected sector by new AI systems 💡 Fundamental rights analysis and impact will be key to the adoption of safe, ethical, transparent, and accountable AI in the justice sector 💡 Can AI leapfrog our judicial tech? While AI systems should not replace legal professionals, AI will be transformative and nation-defining. 💡 Integral to the reform of civil procedure and the rules on evidence would be to allow for admissibility challenges (as against AI-powered evidence) well in advance of the trial, to avoid off-the-cuff rulings on admissibility. AI systems must be proven to be reliable. #TechDrivenCourts #JudicialTech #JudicialInnovations #RoleOfAI #ArtificialIntelligence
