Radar Cross Section Analysis using Feko

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/494544

Radar technology plays an important role in both civilian and military applications. While the targets (cars, airplanes, etc.) are designed to be detected easily for civilian applications, it is the quite opposite for military applications. As such, stealth technology has become a sub-discipline of military tactics. Feko offers several solvers and post-processing scripts for RCS (Radar Cross Section) analysis and target detection, that are presented in detail with live demonstrations in this <a href="http://talk.Speaker(s):" target="_blank" title="talk.Speaker(s):">talk.Speaker(s): Gopinath Gampala , Dr. C.J.

Dr.  Fatima Hussain: Emerging Cyber Security Threats and Current State of Art

Bldg: ICT 516, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Abstract: Speculating on the future of cybersecurity is inherently challenging. Cyber threat landscape is ever evolving with new attacks and so are the techniques and tools for the defense. Due to the concept of global cyber-physical continuum and digitization of data and channels, organizations are relying more on virtualization, cloud services, Gen AI and software as a service, to name a few. Insider threats, SaaS vulnerabilities, Third-Party exposure risks, Gen AI adversarial affects have gained significant ground during the last decade. Defending against cyber threats is a critical and ongoing process that requires an informed, intelligent, proactive, and multifaceted approach. It is worth mentioning that the advancement in technology is a double-edged sword where on one hand, it helps the organizations to focus on sophisticated security solutions but on the other hand it also favors the cyber attackers. In this talk we will cover the current threat landscape, related challenges and enterprise <a href="http://solutions.Speaker" target="_blank" title="solutions.Speaker">solutions.Speaker Bio: Dr. Fatima Hussain is a Senior Member of IEEE with a diverse technical and professional background.
