Artificial Intelligence (AI) is taking the world by storm. There seem to be so many new platforms popping up daily. AI platforms for red and blue teams already exist, but are they custom tailored to your organization's environment? If not, then maybe it is time to create your own.
This talk explores the basics of creating your own AI platform using TensorFlow and how it gives adversaries an advantage in the AI sphere. Topics covered will be the use and benefits of using TensorFlow, collecting, cleaning, and training the data using modeling algorithms, working with TensorFlow .H5 files and bringing everything together into a basic working platform using a command-line interface (CLI). Working with additional .H5 files to test data sets to add to the platform will also be included. Pre-made tools will be demonstrated if time and technology restraints allow for it. If you are interested in learning about building your own AI platforms and learning the basic steps and components involved in creating your own, then this talk is for you.

Peter Halberg
Peter Halberg is a cyber security researcher located in Minneapolis with a curious mind that ranges from security testing to tinkering with hardware such as Arduino. He has been in the technology field for over 14 years.
After High School, Peter joined the Army as a Counterintelligence Agent, and is an Afghanistan Veteran. Once his time in the Army was complete, he went to school for computers and networking, which led to him becoming a systems administrator. After a few years working in the sysadmin field, Peter switched over to cybersecurity where he has been a security researcher for over 4 years. Peter's current passion projects are Artificial Intelligence, file permissions abuse, web scraping, and writing his own C2 framework. His latest fun project was creating a script to automate making Generative Pretrained Transformer (GPT) Chat queries using speech to text, and commands stored in a file.
When Peter is not doing research, he enjoys spending time with his wife and kids, playing pool, learning how to not crash in Microsoft Flight Simulator, and spending time outdoors doing many different activities.
