Security gaps could undermine confidence in election results -- GCN


By Mark Rockwell
Oct 19, 2020
It only takes one small breach to dent confidence in the nation’s election systems, according to a digital rights and technology expert.
While the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and other organizations have made great strides since 2016 to shore up local election infrastructure, “cybersecurity is an active process. Threats are constantly changing and evolving, so we need to keep making the case that election officials need to prioritize cybersecurity and not be complacent, said William Adler, senior technologist for elections and democracy at the Center for Democracy and Technology.
Adler s comments came during an Oct. 16 conference call with reporters. He and other officials at the technology and digital rights advocacy group explained the variety of threats facing the upcoming elections, from voter suppression to misinformation about mail-in ballots and cybersecurity. Even an unsuccessful attack, if det ....

DARPA seeks AI assistants to help with complex tasks -- GCN

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency wants to explore how artificial intelligence-enabled assistants can provide guidance in the form of just-in-time visual and audio feedback to help users expand their skillsets and minimize errors or mistakes.  
In the Perceptually-enabled Task Guidance (PTG) program, humans would wear microphones sensors, head-mounted cameras and an augmented reality headset that all send and receive data. The system could help medics or mechanics, for example, by understanding what they’re working on and offering AR-based instructions to help them perform complex tasks.
“These sensor platforms generate tons of data around what the user is seeing and hearing, while AR headsets provide feedback mechanisms to display and share information or instructions,” said Bruce Draper, a program manager in DARPA’s Information Innovation Office. “Developing virtual assistants that can provide substantial ai ....

How AI-based accident analysis can improve emergency services -- GCN


By Itay Bengad
Mar 12, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has made shockingly clear how thin emergency medical services teams have been spread.  It’s a reality that many teams endured before the pandemic and it will continue to experience once it’s over. As a result, EMS teams must carefully allocate their emergency response resources to properly address every potential scenario. However, in one such scenario the car accident first responders face critical operational and technological challenges in dispatching the appropriate resources. Because they have no real-time data from the scene of the accident, EMS teams must depend on witness reports, forcing them to make assumptions when it comes to sending personnel and vehicles to the scene. Not only do these haphazard decisions have implications on the health of the accident victims, but they could cost EMS teams time and money that are already too sparse to be wasted. ....
