SUMMARY:WiCyS San Diego Affiliate | AI Under Scrutiny: Perspectives from Banking\, Higher Ed\, and Engineering
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is talking about AI. Join WiCyS San Diego for an honest discussion about what it looks like to use it and evaluate it from a security or compliance perspective. Environments where decisions have to hold up to audit\, data sensitivity\, and teams or customers that may not trust the tools yet. \nThree cybersecurity professionals from three different environments – banking/finance\, higher education\, and engineering – sit down for a moderated conversation about how AI shows up in their actual work. Every day. \nWhy this panel is different:\nModerator Melissa Huff will guide panelists Theresa Pon\, Jo Anna Parker Martin\, and Venus Liong through real workflows\, what works and what doesn’t\, and the unique challenges of their environments. We intend to explore AI bias and workplace constraints. The good and the bad. The final segment opens the floor to audience questions and comments. \nWho should attend:\nCybersecurity\, compliance\, privacy\, and risk professionals who want a grounded look at AI adoption from the people evaluating it inside real constraints\, not a product demo. \nWiCyS SD events are open to members and the broader San Diego cybersecurity community. Bring a question. You may end up with a workflow to try Monday morning! \nLearn more and register HERE Attendees will receive the location once they have registered.
