Cyberwal in Galaxia
2023 Cyberwal in Galaxia Program
This school is free of charge* (registration below)
04 – 08 December 2023 (end of registrations on 27/11)
This program will take place on the Galaxia site in Transinne which, together with the European Space Agency (ESA) and the ESEC Centre in Redu (5 km away), forms a leading Space center in Europe.
Together for Cybersecurity - Investing in cybersecurity for a secure future -
Together for Cybersecurity - Investing in cybersecurity for a secure future -
Currently, the Galaxia Park hosts ESA’s educational activities, world-class companies specialized in Space and cybersecurity, and the Euro Space Center.

It is in the ESEC Centre in Redu that ESA has decided to base its cybersecurity center, which will ensure the cyber protection of the Agency’s ground and airborne activities.

The Euro Space Center is an educational center dedicated to space, which welcomes 15,000 young people per year, of 35 different nationalities, for 3 to 5 days of courses, as well as 70,000 visitors per year.

The Euro Space Center has an auditorium of 150 seats (including 4 seats for people with reduced mobility).
Its 30:10 screen offers a great flexibility for presentations, as does its Smart Board interactive screen. The recording option definitely makes this room a cutting-edge auditorium!

Title
The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is having a profound impact on our society. AI is already being used in a variety of key areas such as self-driving cars where AI is being used to develop (1) self-driving cars that can navigate roads and avoid obstacles without human intervention, (2) AI based virtual assistants such as Siri and Alexa that can answer questions, make appointments, and control smart home devices, (3) medical diagnosis where AI is being used diagnose diseases more accurately than human doctors, (4) financial trading where AI is being used to trade financial assets more efficiently than human traders and (5) customer service where AI is being used to develop chatbots that can answer customer questions and resolve issues without human intervention. AI is driving innovation by providing improved efficiency, increased productivity, better decision-making, improved healthcare, or environmental sustainability.
However the rise of AI is also creating new cybersecurity risks that make AI systems vulnerable to new types of cyberattacks, that could have a significant impact on businesses and organizations. Cybersecurity is important for AI systems because they are becoming more complex and interconnected which makes them more vulnerable to cyberattacks, they are being used to collect and store sensitive data, they are often being used in real-time applications, and they are often used in adversarial environments where attackers are constantly trying to find ways to exploit vulnerabilities in AI systems. Cybersecurity is also important for AI because AI systems are increasingly being used in critical infrastructure, such as power grids and transportation systems. If these systems are hacked, it could have a devastating impact on society.
The objective of the day is to present some key research topics at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity in the form of short courses or research presentations. The day will address research topics on the use of AI for improving cybersecurity as well as improving the protection of AI systems. Key research areas at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity that will be covered include AI-powered anomaly detection, AI-powered malware detection, AI-powered incident response and AI-powered ethical hacking.
