This week, the Laboratory for AI Security Research (LASR) team travelled to the RSA Conference 2025 in San Francisco, engaging with the global ecosystem to strengthen international cooperation on AI security.

As artificial intelligence becomes central to digital transformation across sectors, securing it is no longer optional - it's critical. AI systems now power decisions in healthcare, finance, and law enforcement, introducing unique risks that traditional cyber security frameworks do not specifically manage.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a transformational force within the Financial Services (FS) industry, offering a wide range of opportunities alongside complex challenges.

Defence AI Strategy and Defence AI Playbook set a clear ambition to embed AI across both operational and support domains, from logistics and personnel management to frontline Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), and Command and Control (C2).

Advancing the development of robust AI security frameworks. In March 2025, LASR partner the GCSCC and its Global Constellation partner, the Oceania Cyber Security Centre (OCSC), organised a workshop on AI cybersecurity in Canberra targeting stakeholders from the Oceania region.

The Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre (GCSCC) has taken another step in shaping the future of cyber security by trialling a new AI-powered readiness tool in Cyprus from 17–18 March 2025.

The GCSCC, in collaboration with JICA and the UK FCDO, pilots a pioneering tool to help countries assess and strengthen their AI cybersecurity capabilities.
