Huoxian Security: Advancing Cybersecurity Through Equality and Empowerment

/in


“White-hat hackers” are individuals who legally and ethically discover and resolve vulnerabilities in computer systems and networks. Their work is critical for security researchers, who strengthen cybersecurity by proactively finding vulnerabilities and reporting issues to relevant organizations, helping to fix them before malicious hackers can exploit them. In recent years, AI technology has made significant advances in various fields. Mr. Wu’s expertise and achievements in “WooYun” (literally translated as “black cloud”, which refers to the security risks faced by online communities) mentioned in the article have played an important role in maintaining global Internet security. He played a leadership role in transforming WooYun from a niche security community with less than 2,000 members to the largest white hat platform with over 20,000 registered members. What’s more, through this platform, some important security incidents are discovered and disclosed; therefore, businesses and individuals can prevent further damage. From your perspective, what are the current major limitations of AI technology in the field of cybersecurity? Looking ahead, how do you envision the Huoxian security platform utilizing AI technology to propel the progress of the entire cybersecurity industry? 

Huoxian CEO Wu Di

Q: What are the current limitations of AI technology in the field of cybersecurity, and how does Huoxian Security plan to leverage AI for progress?

Wu Di: The limitation of AI in the field of cybersecurity is that, as of now, AI technology mainly learns from existing data generated by humans, while cybersecurity needs to deal with the “unknown” challenges. From this perspective, I have doubts about whether AI’s creativity can surpass top hackers, just like AI has not yet become the greatest inventor, writer, or musician in the world. If AI cannot fully transcend the capabilities of top hackers, it implies that we still face the risk of hacker intrusions.

However, on the other hand, it’s evident that AI can enhance the capabilities of the security industry. For instance, AI can learn from a vast amount of attack data and thereby summarize and even predict possible attack behaviors, which…

Advancing Data Security In EdTech

/in


Geoffrey Alphonso, CEO at Alef Education.

As educational technology (edtech) evolves and transforms the student learning experience, ensuring the security and privacy of student data has become a primary concern. Parents and educators worldwide are increasingly apprehensive about this issue, especially in light of recent data breaches of edtech platforms. These breaches have underscored the importance of implementing robust cybersecurity measures to protect student data. In the digital landscape in which edtech operates, there are opportunities and challenges when protecting sensitive information. Developers recognize this and prioritize data security in the new era of edtech.

An Increase In Data Breaches In Edtech

A wake-up call came in 2020 from a report by the International Digital Accountability Council (IDAC), which revealed that several edtech applications had exposed personal user data, including email addresses, names, cities and other vital data, through the query parameters in the URL. This discovery underscored the need for developers to adhere to best practices and conduct thorough URL audits to prevent potential leakage of personal data.

In fact, 2021 marked the peak of data breaches in education, surpassing all previous years, as 771 institutions and approximately 2.6 million files were compromised in the U.S. Most of this was due to the Illuminate Education data breach, which affected at least 605 institutions. The following year, nearly 1.4 million records were affected in 96 security breaches. In 2023, there were 11 security breaches affecting more than 3,500 records in the U.S. just from January to April. As a result, the security of online platforms, the protection of student data and the prevention of unauthorized access are all issues that edtech companies frequently face.

Edtech Cybersecurity Challenges

The cybersecurity challenges faced by edtech companies are multitudinous, including protecting student data from unauthorized access and breaches, securing online platforms from cyber threats and implementing robust authentication mechanisms. Ensuring data security in a rapidly evolving technological landscape is becoming increasingly complex with…
