With the backing of the National Science Foundation, some of the U.S.'s most accomplished computer scientists and engineers have assembled in an effort to improve cyber threat intelligence capabilities by combining the power of artificial intelligence with human expertise. This session will profile the formation and early efforts of the National Science Foundation-sponsored Institute for Agent-based Cyber Threat Intelligence and OperatioN (ACTION). The five-year project was founded to help security professionals leverage the continuous learning and reasoning that AI can bring to the table as organizations seek to hone and strengthen their CTI efforts.
