  • Question
Routing Issues

I recently dealt with a client’s network outage caused by a misconfigured router. I had to dig into the routing tables and found that one static route was pointing to the wrong gateway. Once corrected, the network was restored. Have you encountered similar routing issues in your teaching, and how do you explain routing table troubleshooting to your students?

RSA Encryption

RSA encryption is still part of the team roster, but it's getting on in age.
What's the up-and-coming successor to this once-upon-a-time
perennial all-star?

If you do provide a response to this query, some evidence to support
your input would be most appreciated. Opinions and feelings don't

AI: The Intellectual Property Assassin – Is Human Creativity Obsolete?

Traditional intellectual property thinking no longer applies​

In the era of rapidly advancing artificial intelligence, the concept of intellectual property (IP) faces unprecedented challenges. As AI systems become increasingly capable of generating creative works and innovations, the traditional notions of IP become obsolete.

Has AI nullified intellectual property?​

Here are three reasons why I think intellectual property no longer exists in its current form in the AI era:

1. Blurred lines of authorship and inventorship in intellectual property​

AI systems can now create content and develop solutions that rival human-generated works. This capability blurs the lines between human and machine-generated content, creating significant challenges to traditional concepts of authorship and inventorship. When an AI system creates a piece of art or develops a new formula, determining ownership becomes complex. Is it the AI itself, the developers who created the AI, or the company that owns the system? But wait there’s more. AI systems often rely on vast datasets for training, which may include copyrighted materials. The process of machine learning involves analyzing and learning from these datasets, potentially creating derivative works in the process. This further complicates the issue of authorship and ownership, as it becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish between human-created content and AI-generated works influenced by existing intellectual property.

2. Rapid pace of innovation outstrips intellectual property’s legal frameworks​

The speed at which AI technology is advancing far outpaces the development of legal frameworks designed to protect intellectual property. AI systems can generate new ideas, solutions, and creative works super fast, often iterating and improving upon existing concepts in ways that blur the lines between incremental improvements and major inventions. This rapid pace of AI-driven innovation creates several challenges for the existing IP system:

Free Comprehensive Training on CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-003) in Urdu/Hindi – Empowering Our Youth

Dear Colleagues,

I am excited to share a complete training course for CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-003) that I’ve prepared in Urdu/Hindi, and the best part – it’s completely free!

This course covers all domains of the certification along with hands-on exercises to equip learners with the skills required to succeed in the cybersecurity industry.
My goal is to support students who may struggle with costly training programs or face language barriers, ensuring they have access to the knowledge and tools needed to thrive in this field.

I believe this initiative will be especially beneficial for those who wish to pursue a career in cybersecurity but are held back due to financial constraints or the lack of resources in their native language. By providing them with this course, we are giving them the opportunity to build a solid foundation in cybersecurity and move one step closer to a rewarding career.

I kindly encourage you to share this with your students and anyone who could benefit from it. Let’s work together to help our youth overcome these challenges and achieve success in the cybersecurity world!

  • Question
CASP+/SecurityX PBQ & Lab Practice Recommendations

In addition to the Cert Master content, can anyone recommend other resources they used for practice leading up to the exam or recommendations based on their experience with the exam, without giving away too much about the exam.
TryHackMe and Hack the Box have a bunch of content...just not sure what's applicable to CASP+/SecurityX, and what other resources are available.

I've got study materials like books, practice MC questions and flashcards covered.

Thanks!

Practical AI for Instructors

As a follow-up from our CIN Instructor Toolbox webinar about how AI may be incorporated into course delivery, I thought we could keep the conversation going here in the community. Do you have a best practice for using AI in your course? Do you have examples or prompts you would like to share? Do you have an AI resources you would like to share? Maybe you have a question about using AI in the classroom. Let's talk about it here.

Looking forward to sharing! If you missed the webinar, you can view the on-demand session.
