Topic
Data Science in Security: Machine Learning for Identity Verification
Abstract
While designing a solution for online identity verification we are dealing with a fast moving target. Those who attempt to deceive are innovative and are incentivized by the potential great rewards from convincing other they are a brand or a person they know or trust. In fact the vast majority of hacks start with an email. People believe they are communicating with someone they know and willingly share sensitive information. In this presentation I will discuss the challenges of both identity verification and of designing models to accurately classify evolving targets.
