AI Sweden forms an AI & Security Consortium

Wednesday, October 16, 2024

AI Sweden is establishing an AI & Security Consortium, building on the success of the Edge Learning Consortium and leveraging both new and ongoing projects in the security domain.

Both the new project on smart honeypots and LeakPro, an ongoing project, will be part of a larger effort to enhance AI & Security.

"Our Edge Learning Consortium is a great success, where partners with a shared interest in edge learning joined forces and created new knowledge, tools, and methods. We are now building on the infrastructure, know-how and capacity from that consortium and the work done in Large Language Models at AI Sweden to make a major impact in the AI and security domain," says Dr. Mats Nordlund, Director of AI Labs at AI Sweden. He continues:

"Since 2021, AI and security have been part of the work in our Edge Learning Lab, following recommendations from our advisory board. We are now further accelerating our efforts in this area, under the umbrella AI & Security, as the intersection of AI and security is becoming increasingly critical for many of our partners. This includes new projects aimed at making AI itself more robust and secure, as well as exploring how AI can be leveraged to enhance security in other domains. Our work on adaptive honeypots is one example of the latter."

Launching soon

The new AI & Security Consortium, with its focus on AI & Security, aims to launch early in 2025.

“To help with this, AI Sweden has recruited international experts that will complement and strengthen our existing team. AI and security is a global challenge, and adding international expertise to the team makes sure we are a leader in the field.”
