CAMLIS (Conference on Applied Machine Learning in Information Security) is an independent, practitioner-focused cybersecurity conference dedicated to the real-world application of machine learning and artificial intelligence in information security. CAMLIS brings together researchers, security practitioners, and industry professionals from academia, government, and the private sector to share applied research, operational case studies, and field-tested techniques.… Continue reading CAMLIS (Conference on Applied Machine Learning in Information Security)

The ATLAS Matrix is part of MITRE ATLAS (Adversarial Threat Landscape for Artificial-Intelligence Systems), a knowledge base that documents how adversaries can attack AI and machine-learning (ML) systems across their full lifecycle. It applies the same structured, adversary-centric approach used by MITRE ATT&CK, but is purpose-built for AI systems. The matrix organizes real-world and theoretical… Continue reading MITRE ATLAS Matrix Overview

Executive summary ISO/IEC 42001 is the first international management system standard dedicated to artificial intelligence. It provides a structured, auditable framework to govern AI systems across their lifecycle. For organisations using AI in production, the standard addresses growing regulatory pressure, operational risk, and accountability expectations by embedding AI governance, risk management, and continual improvement into… Continue reading ISO/IEC 42001: Implementing an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS)

The security.txt file is a standardized mechanism that allows organizations to clearly communicate how security vulnerabilities should be reported for their website or online service. It acts as a single, authoritative source of truth for security researchers, ethical hackers, and automated tools looking to disclose vulnerabilities responsibly. Purpose of security.txt The primary goal of security.txt… Continue reading What Is security.txt and Why It Matters for Websites

Reverse shells are a common technique in penetration testing to gain remote interactive access to a machine. They rely on the target system initiating an outbound connection to an operator-controlled host. One of the simplest examples uses Bash and the /dev/tcp interface. What the Command Does This command tells Bash to: When successful, the remote… Continue reading Understanding Bash Reverse Shells and Port Listeners

You can create a lightboard effect in Zoom using a Wacom tablet through two primary methods: using the built-in Zoom Whiteboard feature for simple digital inking, or by using Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) Studio with a physical lightboard for a professional “transparent glass” effect.  and use Picture-in-Picture Mode. You can purchase your own, or do this virtually for better… Continue reading Lightboard Effect using Wacom

Introduction Threat modelling enables security teams to answer four core questions: This process helps organizations reduce risk, demonstrate due diligence, improve controls, and ensure readiness if a breach occurs. 1. What Are We Working On? This stage defines context and establishes the scope of the analysis. Frameworks and Methodologies Common threat modelling methods include: Identify… Continue reading Threat Modelling Manfiesto
