Running a full node on Ethereum is expensive. With a recommended 2TB+ SSD storage and 14GB of data added weekly, many potential validators are left out. This increases reliance on centralized intermediaries.
Pillar IV on Impact Beyond Academia bridges academic research with practice, covering practical applications and challenges, and legal concerns, culminating in a panel discussion with lecturers (@fbpierazzi , @ajpaverd ) and industry speakers
Pillar III on Exchange and Community: engage in poster sessions, group mentoring, and a famous seminar by Fabio Roli on soft skills for optimal career development.
Pillar II on Educational Selected Topics deep dives into code vulnerability discovery, explainability in cybersecurity, and traffic analysis: selected topics of the year presented by @AdrianaSejfia , @mjuarezm_ and @chwress
Pillar I on Fundamental Domain Knowledge presents 101-level sessions by @azqa_nadeem, @maurapintor , Fabio Roli, and @gchers , covering AI for Security & Privacy, Security of AI, and Privacy of AI to bring everyone up to speed, and a concluding talk by @lcavallaro
The SECAI Summer School program in Leuven cybersecurity-research.be/su… features 4 key pillars: foundational knowledge, selected expert topics, community building, and industry insights. See this year's breakdown of each pillar below:

Dating apps encourage users to share info (incl. sensitive info!) for matching quality.
Unfortunately, apps may also leak information which users are not aware they are sharing.
Some apps even leak exact locations of users.
