Overview of Breakout Session Tracks
(see map below for room locations)
The breakout sessions provide an opportunity for participants to share insights and feedback to inform the Cyber AI Profile. Participants will rotate to complete each of the three sessions.
- Track A - Focus Area Descriptions: The concept paper proposed three focus areas for the Cyber AI Profile: Securing AI System Components, Thwarting AI-enabled Cyber Attacks, and Using AI for Cyber-defense Activities. The purpose of this track is to review the language used to describe each focus area presented in the concept paper, identify any new focus areas that should be considered within the scope of the Cyber AI Profile, and identify the key characteristics of each focus area.
- Track B – Anticipated Profile Uses and Elements: The Cyber AI Profile will be a tool for helping organizations understand and manage risk at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. The discussions during this track will focus on anticipated uses of the Profile and information the Profile should include to help organizations use it. Discussions will explore whether and how to include: specific implications of cybersecurity for AI and AI for cybersecurity, CSF Subcategory priorities, mappings, and informative references. This track will also include discussions regarding how to reflect the roles of complementary frameworks.
- Track C - Priorities in the CSF Core: The Cyber AI Profile will use the outcomes in the CSF 2.0 Core to organize discussions regarding risk. The purpose of this track is to review areas of emphasis that are emerging from early research, discuss threats and mitigations that will further inform areas of emphasis, and discuss additional resources that can inform how the CSF Core is applied in the Cyber AI Profile.
