Topic: Data-Driven Decision Making in Cyber Security

Presented by Dr. Marty Trevino, Chief Scientist for the Insight Cyber Group

What is Decision Support Science?

Random Forests and Linear Regressions
Neuroscience and Cognitive Behavior
What do bad actors understand about our thalamus and visual cortex?
What are intractable equations that enforce what we believe at a rate of 6 to 1 over the new information that must be understood?
What’s the importance of Peer Review and Cohesion?
What indicators tell us quite clearly if a group is likely to protect us or do harm?
Do I like my job? Do I like my coworkers? Am I committed to my company? Do people listen to me? Do people respect my opinion?
What if these same questions apply to the entire social platform and the state of our digital citizens?
