Project Spotlight: AI Security and Privacy Guide
AI applications are on the rise and so are the concerns regarding AI security and privacy. How can AI systems be attacked? How can they be protected? This is why OWASP is now offering the AI security & privacy guide - to provide clear and actionable insights on designing, creating, testing, and procuring secure and privacy-preserving AI systems. By open-sourcing our understanding of the state-of-the-art, we can create consensus and collect ideas from a variety of perspectives.

GSuite Account Cleanup

Today, we crossed 10,000 accounts in our GSuite instance. This is a great milestone, but it also means that we have no more seats to give to new members. We currently have 6600 financial members, so there are 3400 expired members today. We need to do a spring clean.
We will be deleting old accounts of long-expired members, initially those that are more than three years out of date. So if you’ve let your membership expire before March 2020, your data will be gone. This will affect 1400 accounts initially.
