OPEN Session (DataWeek): Strategies for Image Dataset Curation from High-Volume Industrial IoT data

Thursday September 4, 2025 11:30am - 11:55am PDT

DataWeek -- Main Stage

Apurva Godghase, Brambles, Senior Computer Vision Engineer

In Industrial IoT for Supply chain, and logistics, massive amounts of data is generated by edge devices that capture data continuously. For embedded vision systems, managing the sheer volume of images and metadata can be challenging. Selecting a diverse subset of high-quality data is crucial for effective modeling and analysis. This work outlines a comprehensive method for selecting relevant images from an extensive dataset to build a high-quality image database for building and monitoring computer vision and machine learning models. This systematic approach not only enhances the efficiency of data management in industrial IoT applications but also improves the generalizability and accuracy of Computer Vision learning models.

OPEN Session (CloudX): Hack the Cloud: Attackers Love Blind Spots, Break Their Hearts

Thursday September 4, 2025 3:30pm - 3:55pm PDT

CloudX -- Main Stage

Brian Contos, Mitiga, Field CISO

Malicious actors, on an unholy crusade, have discovered that a lack of visibility across Cloud, SaaS, and Identity, combined with legacy controls that provide limited cloud detection and response capabilities, grants them a nefarious advantage. This lack of visibility, detection, and response in cloud environments allows malicious actors to operate with an elevated ability to breach organizations, evade detection, and maintain persistence.

As businesses transition to the cloud, critical assets, sensitive data, and an increasing array of interconnected SaaS applications have followed. This shift attracts malicious actors eager to exploit any visibility gaps, such as those caused by the segmentation of environments across workloads and SaaS. While such segmentation is a beneficial security best practice for incident prevention, it also provides a stealthy refuge for attackers. In essence, your SecOps team is operating within a landscape fraught with invisible threats.

This presentation will explore real-life stories from the trenches, drawn from years of cloud-based incident response. Various hacks will be explored to illustrate how breaches occur, what happens following a breach, and why organizations are struggling to detect and respond.

Finally, we will cover mitigation strategies such as proactively preparing for a breach, discovering malicious activity, and responding. Malicious actors are counting on your passivity, your blind spots, and your inability to effectively detect and respond to attacks in the cloud. Break their hearts!
