In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

52:07

Surviving disruptive cyber events requires a specific form of planning. One must strike a balance between defending against threats (e.g., managing conditions) and effectively handling the effects of disruption (e.g., managing consequences). Employing a model (such as the CERT Resilience Management Model) provides a catalog of practices and a system of measurement. Focusing on key attributes of performance permits a level of prediction not possible with a basic checklist. In this webcast, Greg Crabbe and Matt Butkovic share their experiences in establishing and maintaining operational resilience programs. What Attendees Will Learn: • how to link mission outcome with asset resilience • how managing for security differs from managing for resilience • how to apply a capability maturity model to the challenge • how to begin analyzing requirements and constructing an operational resilience management program…

Independent Verification and Validation for Agile Projects 1:02:23

19 weeks temu1:02:23

1:02:23

Traditionally, independent verification and validation (IV&V) is performed by an independent team throughout a program’s milestones or once the software is formally delivered. This approach allows the IV&V team to provide input at the various milestone gates. As more programs move to an Agile approach, those milestones aren’t as clearly defined since requirements, design, implementation, and testing all happen iteratively, sometimes over years of development. In this new paradigm, IV&V teams are struggling to figure out how to add value to the program earlier in the lifecycle by getting in phase with development. This webcast will highlight a novel approach to providing IV&V for projects using an Agile or iterative software development. What Attendees Will Learn: What adopting an Agile mindset for IV&V could look like How focusing on capabilities and using a risk-based perspective could help drive planning for your team Techniques to help the IV&V team get more in phase with the developer while remaining independent…

Within a very short amount of time, the productivity and creativity improvements envisioned by generative artificial intelligence (AI), such as using tools based on large language models (LLMs), have taken the software engineering community by storm. The industry is in a race to develop your next best software development tool. Organizations are perplexed by trying to find the right balance between staying ahead in the race and protecting their data and systems from potential risks presented by using generative AI as part of their software development tool chain. There are haters, evangelists, and everything in between. Software engineering education and educators have a special role. No matter how they perceive the opportunities and challenges of generative AI approaches, software engineering educators are going through a watershed moment that will change how they educate the next generation of software engineers. In this webcast, three experts in software engineering will discuss how generative AI is influencing software engineering education and how to balance key skills development with incorporating generative AI into software engineering curricula. What Attendees Will Learn: • how software engineering education is challenged by the increasing popularity of generative AI tools • how software engineering educators can take advantage of generative AI tools • what fundamental skills will be critical to teach to software engineering students in the era of generative AI…

Can You Rely on Your AI? Applying the AIR Tool to Improve Classifier Performance 38:50

40 weeks temu38:50

38:50

Modern analytic methods, including artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) classifiers, depend on correlations; however, such approaches fail to account for confounding in the data, which prevents accurate modeling of cause and effect and often leads to prediction bias. The Software Engineering Institute (SEI) has developed a new AI Robustness (AIR) tool that allows users to gauge AI and ML classifier performance with unprecedented confidence. This project is sponsored by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering to transition use of our AIR tool to AI users across the Department of Defense. During the webcast, the research team will hold a panel discussion on the AIR tool and discuss opportunities for collaboration. Our team efforts focus strongly on transition and provide guidance, training, and software that put our transition collaborators on a path to successful adoption of this technology to meet their AI/ML evaluation needs. What Attendees Will Learn: • How AIR adds analytical capability that didn’t previously exist, enabling an analysis to characterize and measure the overall accuracy of the AI as the underlying environment changes • Examples of the AIR process and results from causal discovery to causal identification to causal inference • Opportunities for partnership and collaboration…

There is a lot of documentation about a zero trust architecture, as well as directives that it be used for U.S. federal agencies and the Department of Defense (DoD), but little information on how to go about implementing it to improve an organization’s enterprise or DoD weapon system security. Use cases typically describe requirements for these systems, but they do not provide the contextual awareness that organizations need to help them create a prioritized roadmap to implement zero trust. In this webcast, Tim Morrow, Rhonda Brown, and Elias Miller discuss an approach that organizations can use to help develop the contextual awareness needed to apply a zero trust strategy. What Attendees Will Learn: Overview of a zero trust strategy Roadmap focusing on zero trust for the DoD Engineering approach for mission/workflow Use of a scenario to help reason about zero trust considerations Awareness of an upcoming SEI Zero Trust Industry Day event…
