Description
On this episode of The Artists of Data Science, we get a chance to hear from Chase Cunningham, a retired Navy chief cryptologist with nearly two decades of experience in cyber, forensic and analytic operations. He holds both PHD and Masters in Computer Science, and has been named one of Security magazine's most influential people in security for 2019.
Chase shares with us the definition of cybersecurity and cyberwarfare, how cyberspace has evolved over the past decade, and the dangers of operating within this space. Chase’s knowledge within cybersecurity will help data scientists identify ways for them to build models that have better real world outcomes and give them insights into a field that impacts our work.
