RSA Conference, Moscone West, 800 Howard Street, Monday, February 13, 3:00 p.m. 
Presenters Sam Curry, chief product officer and Yonatan Striem-Amit, CTO and co-founder 
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Data Science are among the many disciplines abused by marketing and snake oil salesman alike. This session will focus on advancing the state of the art of security analytics using what is real and examining the promise, the hype and the real state of AI, ML and Data Science in solving fundamental security problems.

OSX Pirrit: Why You Should Care About Malicious Mac Adware 
RSA Conference, Moscone South, 308, Friday, February 17, 11:30 a.m. 
Presenter Amit Serper, principal security researcher 
Adware isn’t taken seriously, especially threats targeting Macs. But OSX Pirrit, which can obtain root access and has components found in malware, shows that adware can become a huge security issue. Amit Serper will explain how OSX Pirrit works, why security professionals may want to rethink how commodity threats are handled and why Macs aren’t as secure as people think.
