Episode 26: Microsoft's L33t Sp3ak AI security series ft. me
I didn't manage to get my act into gear to record a fresh episode between getting back from the UK and heading to New Zealand so I've pulled one from the vault.. it's a good one though! A year ago I was interviewed by Microsoft for their AI security series. Massive thanks to Microsoft for having me and Sarah Young for excellent interviewing. Check out the rest of the series, they have some really cool people on. This is also a good episode for anyone new to AI security, it covers most of the bases.Link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPQaJVnBSRQ&pp=ygUYaGFycmlldCBmYXJsb3cgbWljcm9zb2Z0

Episode 23: the AI lifecycle and what it means for security
In this episode we discuss the AI lifecycle.. we talk through important machine learning stages (training, inference etc), how they apply at the systems levels (agentic systems, APIs etc) and and example in context (facial recognition at airports but please forgive us we are not airport experts).We refer to useful content from MITRE's resources: https://atlas.mitre.org/resources/ai-security-101Feel free to compliment us at contact@mileva.com.au.

Episode 21: is AI an optional risk? lessons in risk analysis from a road trip to the Society of Risk Analysis conference
Tania and I went to Melbourne to attend the Society of Risk Analysis Annual General Meeting. What a great group of people.. we learnt so much about risk analysis from these awesome people. We all came from totally different disciplines - climate, biosecurity, technology - but everyone working in risk has the same challenges!They were also a great group of people to go out for cocktails with (we had a few).contact@mileva.com.au
