The AIAS project made a strong impact at this year’s Greek Researcher’s Night, held on September 27, 2024, at the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA).
Represented by the System Security Laboratory (SSL) of the University of Piraeus Research Center (UPRC), the AIAS team showcased their cutting-edge research on adversarial AI and the development of an advanced security platform designed to shield organizations from AI-driven threats. Throughout the evening, AIAS representatives sparked engaging, thought-provoking discussions with researchers from a wide range of technological fields, delving into the pressing issue of AI security vulnerabilities. They passionately shared the project’s mission to revolutionize AI defense by leveraging adversarial AI strategies, deception mechanisms, and explainable AI solutions. Furthermore, the AIAS team provided a comprehensive overview of the project’s technological pillars, including cutting-edge techniques designed to safeguard AI systems from sophisticated cyber threats. These in-depth conversations allowed the AIAS team to exchange ideas, gather feedback, and foster collaborative opportunities, further solidifying AIAS’s role as a leader in the future of AI-driven cybersecurity.
The event provided a unique opportunity to connect with students, young researchers, and cybersecurity enthusiasts, inviting them to explore AIAS’s open webinars and seminars. Beyond aiming for groundbreaking technological advancements, the AIAS team and the entire SSL have a strong commitment to simplifying complex ideas and passing them on to the next generation. They believe that young people are the researchers of tomorrow, capable of building on existing work and driving innovation forward. This dual focus—pushing technological boundaries while empowering the next wave of talent—remains a core mission of AIAS, making outreach and education just as vital as cutting-edge research.
