*DESCRIPTION*



The next generation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning
(ML) are increasingly incorporated in cybersecurity solutions. Experts
predict that, over time, companies will incorporate AI into every
cybersecurity product portfolio. While AI and ML increase the defenders’
capability to detect and prevent abnormal behavior patterns, attackers are
also using AI and ML to learn about a target’s vulnerabilities and launch
attacks. In this session, we solicit high-quality original research papers,
both theoretical and empirical, that address the issues of AI aid, misuse
and threat in cybersecurity in different contexts such as business,
healthcare, education, politics, and economics.



Topics may include but are not limited to the following:


   - The state of AI-Driven Cybersecurity
   - AI applications in various security aspects
   - Machine learning/deep learning algorithms to detect cyber threats
   - Methodological approaches of open source machine learning
   - Improving the success rate of detecting cyber attacks
   - Cognitive AI security: Collaboration between AI and human intelligence
   - Dark side of AI, misuse and AI threat
   - Better practices for AI to prevent or defense a cyber-attack
   - Are signatures and intrusion patterns enough?
   - AI governance and privacy issues
   - Government regulation and AI-Driven Cybersecurity
   - Other issues pertaining to AI-Driven Cybersecurity



With over 12,500 members from around the globe, INFORMS (The Institute for
Operations Research and the Management Sciences) is the leading
international association for professionals in Operations Research,
Management Science, Information Systems and Business Analytics. INFORMS
promotes best practices and advances in operations research, management
science, and analytics to improve operational processes, decision-making,
and outcomes through an array of highly-cited publications (e.g.:
Operations Research, Information Systems Research, Organization Science,
Management Science), conferences, competitions, networking communities, and
professional development services.



Seattle, also known as The Emerald City, is nestled among snow-capped
mountains and evergreen trees near the Pacific Coast. This largest city in
the Pacific Northwest region of the USA is home to major universities,
corporations, hospitals, and philanthropic organizations. Seattle has seen
rapid growth over the recent decades and become a thriving technological
hub. The conference will be held in a bustling area near many restaurants,
bars, and shops, not far from iconic landmarks such as the Space Needle and
the Pike Place Market. Join thousands of students, professionals, and
academicians to explore ideas at the forefront of theory and practice of
OR/MS, data science, analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine
learning, within the context of applications such as education, energy,
healthcare, humanitarian logistics, manufacturing, revenue management,
supply chain management, sustainability, and transportation.



>From students to prospective employers and employees, to academic and
industry experts, the 2024 meeting will provide countless opportunities to
learn, network, and grow your career. On behalf of the organizing
committee, I invite you to join us at the 2024 INFORMS Annual Meeting for
an opportunity to learn, inform and enjoy the culture, weather and all the
amenities in such a beautiful place as Emerald City. I look forward to
seeing you at the conference.

Best regards,



Tung (Francis) Cu, Ph.D. MIS Associate Professor
