SUMMARY:Presentation: Beyond the CVSS: Leveraging XGBoost to Filter Vulnerability Noise (hybrid/Boston)
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\nThis talk will explore the intersection of machine learning and vulnerability management\, focusing on how the XGBoost algorithm can be leveraged to predict the exploitability of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs). While frontier LLMs are currently revolutionizing vulnerability discovery — such as autonomously identifying zero-days in complex codebases — lightweight ML models remain the critical backbone for enterprise risk prioritization. \n\n\n\nThe presentation will cover the practical methodology of building an exploitability classifier\, the statistical challenges of handling highly imbalanced security datasets where actual exploits are rare\, and how these different AI approaches complement each other in a modern AppSec pipeline. \n\n\n\nThis talk is based on a 2024 research paper called Leveraging XGBoost Machine Learning Algorithm for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Exploitability Classification.

SUMMARY:Cafecito with Northeastern University in Miami
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\nWhat can graduate school offer you? At Khoury College of Computer Sciences\, we believe computer science is for everyone — with the power to make the world a better place. That’s why we design flexible programs\, grounded in rigor\, opportunity\, and experience. It’s why we collaborate with industry and community partners on the technologies that shape our collective future. And it’s why we seek curious thinkers with diverse backgrounds\, because multiple perspectives lead to life-changing discoveries. \n\n\n\nStop by to have a cup of coffee with us at Libertino Cafe and let’s chat about how you can further your career in the tech field or start an exciting new career through the Align Master’s program. \n\n\n\nWho should attend \n\n\n\n\nProfessionals from non-tech fields considering a career switch\n\n\n\nStudents from non-computer science disciplines\n\n\n\nAnyone interested in learning about alternative pathways into the tech industry\n\n\n\n\nPlease note: Participants must hold a bachelor’s degree or be nearing college graduation to participate. \n\n\n\nQuestions? Email d.rinaldi@northeastern.edu. \n\n\n\n\nRegister now
