Welcome to ITAICS

Leveraging AI to Solve Complex Cybersecurity Challenges

ITAICS - Institute of Technology of Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security

ITAICS LLC, the Institute of Technology of Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the fields of AI and cybersecurity. We provide support on innovative research opportunities, and expert solutions to complex technological challenges. ITAICS was founded with the goal to support and drive researching in the fields of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. Below we will describe in details the goals, purpose, vision, and the leaders behind the organization.

Aproach

Our mission is driven to do research and leveraging AI to solve complex problems, analyze data, study real-time threat detection methods, and predict threats through the construction of descriptive models. In general the following points convey the greates challenges in cybersecurity.

  • Real-time threat detection
  • Predictive analysis
  • Automation design and construction
  • Development of advanced threat detection models
  • Integration of AI with existing infrastructure
Although a short list, these represents a thourough core of research upon which many solutions can be proposed and developed.

Challenges and Considerations

Our research focuses on leveraging AI to solve complex problems, process vast amounts of data, enable real-time threat detection, and predict threats through advanced models.

  • Development of Advanced Threat Detection Models
  • Enhancement and development of AI Algorithms for Cybersecurity
  • Integration of AI with Existing Cybersecurity Infrastructure
  • Ethical AI Implementation in Cybersecurity
  • Optimization of AI for Resource-Constrained Environments
  • Human-Centered Privacy and Cybersecurity
  • ICANN's Role and Human-Centered Privacy and Cybersecurity: Global Domain Name System (DNS)
  • Privacy WHOIS Database: Privacy concerns regarding personal data publicly accessed and breached.
  • GDPR: General Data Protection Regulation
  • Human-Centered: Usability, Transparency and Equity
  • Human Rights Connection: freedom of expression, privacy rights
  • The United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs)
  • Multi-Stakeholder Internet Governance

Human-centered privacy and cybersecurity resonate deeply with the missions of ICANN, ISOC, and global human rights frameworks. By focusing on usability, transparency, and inclusivity, these organizations can promote a secure and privacy-respecting internet that empowers individuals, protects their rights, and bridges the digital divide. This alignment ensures that technological progress enhances—not undermines—fundamental freedoms in the digital age.

Researching Core

Our research focuses on leveraging AI to solve complex problems, process vast amounts of data, enable real-time threat detection, and predict threats through advanced models.

  • Data Privacy Concerns
  • Adversarial Attacks
  • Skill Gap
  • Ethical Considerations
  • Real Time Threat Detection
  • Predictive Analysis
  • Automation of Security Processes
  • Improved Decision-Making
  • Adaptation to Emerging Threats
  • Development of Advanced Threat Detection Models
  • Enhancement of AI algorithms for Cybersecurity
  • Integration of AI with Existing Cybersecurity Infrastructure
  • Ethical AI Implementations in Cybersecurity
  • Optimization of AI for Resource-Constrained Environments

Who we are

Eduardo Meléndez Jr. (Santiago), is the founder of ITAICS LLC. He is a commmitted academic and scholar, that brings a wealth of experience in tackling complex challenges across various sectors, including academia, private industry, and government.

Throughout his career, Mr. Meléndez has garnered numerous accolades, highlighting his contributions to the field. Notably, in 2022, he became the first and only Latino from Puerto Rico to be awarded the prestigious Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Security (NCAE-C) National recognition, an honor given to only five PhD students across the United States and its territories. His commitment to excellence is further reflected in his membership in the IEEE-HKN ETA KAPPA NU Honor Society.

In addition to his professional accomplishments, Mr. Meléndez has dedicated himself to volunteer work, particularly in supporting the development of Internet Governance and expanding Internet access to disadvantaged communities. His academic background includes a BS and MS in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, along with graduate studies in Mathematical Statistics, Computational Mathematics, Computer Engineering, Computer Sciences, Cybersecurity, and Data Science.

Mr. Meléndez remains deeply committed to supporting the initiatives of the CAE Community, and continuing to drive forward the mission of ITAICS and contributing to the broader fields of AI and Cybersecurity.
