CSI Talk #14

Dr. Tyler Malloy

In this talk Tyler will cover the Dynamic Decision Making Lab's recent studies of human decision making in different cybersecurity contexts including phishing email identification, resource allocation, and network analysis. He will discuss the current experiment exploring phishing email education that involves participants learning to detect individualized phishing emails that are generated by GPT. This experiment involves automatically generating convincing phishing emails using GPT-4, and training participants to be better able to identify when this may be happening.
Speaker Bio:
Tyler received their PhD in Cognitive Science from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy New York, their thesis project included work applying generative artificial intelligence methods onto reinforcement learning techniques to better predict human decision making. Since then, they have been a postdoctoral researcher at Carnegie Mellon working at the Dynamic Decision Making lab under the advisement of Prof. Cleotilde Gonzalez on projects involving decision making in cyber security contexts including phishing email identification, security resource allocation, and network analysis.
