CW EMEA: Women in Cyber
In this quarter’s issue of CW EMEA, we look at the decision in Sweden to discontinue the use of a machine learning model to identify benefit fraud. The country’s Data Protection Authority became involved in November 2024, when it was revealed that a machine learning system being used by Försäkringskassan, the Swedish Social Insurance Agency, was disproportionally and wrongly flagging certain groups for further investigation over social benefits fraud. We also explore the impact of Women in Cybersecurity Middle East’s partnership with Black Hat MEA. Read the issue now.
