Tymofiy Rabchuk commented on the post, Discussion Question #7: So how did it go?, on the site Industry Experience in MIS-SPRING 2018 5 months, 2 weeks ago
My experience at Protiviti was entirely positive because I was doing something that I enjoy, I was challenged and never stopped learning. I learned a lot about security consulting and what sort of projects I might be on in the future. At Protiviti I can go two routes in security: I can become a penetration tester ( what I ultimately want to do)…[Read more]

Tymofiy Rabchuk commented on the post, AI in Health Care for the Better, on the site MIS4596: Information Systems Integration 6 months ago
Looking at the data you presented and the general trend of AI applications, I think AI will keep advancing in general in the healthcare industry. While there are some cases that I can see them being extreme (making intuitive decisions), AI will use Machine Learning to become better at predicting, simulating, and executing a specific human…[Read more]

Tymofiy Rabchuk commented on the post, Sensationalism vs. AI – Failure of Self-driving Vehicle Raises Issues, on the site MIS4596: Information Systems Integration 6 months ago
I think that autonomous driving is still far time away due to accidents like these. I think that self-driving trucks will be the first of the kind because of lesses restrictions they need on highways rather than driving in cities with a lot of pedestrians. With those gaining some traction and success, people can start believing AI to be able to…[Read more]

Tymofiy Rabchuk commented on the post, Discussion Question #6: You can’t learn everything in the classroom…., on the site Industry Experience in MIS-SPRING 2018 6 months, 1 week ago
One of the things that I observed during my internship is that you need to continually learn and test things on your own. As one of my mentors said, being in the security field is not a 40 hour a week job. You always need to be reading about the tech industry and other complimentary industries to be up to speed with the current technology and…[Read more]

Tymofiy Rabchuk commented on the post, What if AI Fails?, on the site MIS4596: Information Systems Integration 6 months, 3 weeks ago
I think that you bring some very good points since AI at the moment is still human code that just contains a bunch of different decision trees and conditional statements. However, it’s also valuable to point out that Machine learning and Deep learning are still at this early stages of development which will minimize the errors that AI make as long…[Read more]

Seeing the AI alignment in an integrative way can help to understand the bigger problem and the solution that can solve it. Using AI to predict and simulate cybersecurity attacks will be a very important skill that AI’s will learn in the future. When creating this AI, the human needs to take into account a wide array of potential threats and to…[Read more]

The technical classes like MIS 3501, 3502, 2501, and 2502 in our MIS program helped me the most during my internship. Because I have a lot of outside curiosity, I was able to try out different things in the classroom which helped me to solidify the material learned during class even better. Using these technical skills I was able to understand…[Read more]

Tymofiy Rabchuk commented on the post, Discussion Question #4: How do you do it all???, on the site Industry Experience in MIS-SPRING 2018 7 months, 1 week ago
One of the things that I do is I plan my day ahead the night before. It takes only about 5-7 minutes but saves a lot of time the next day. Another thing that I do is write everything out in my reminders. While this may not be the greatest thing to improve one’s memory, it helps to minimize forgetfulness and reminds me of when I need to do a…[Read more]

Tymofiy Rabchuk commented on the post, Artificial Intelligence: A Growing Disruption, on the site MIS4596: Information Systems Integration 7 months, 2 weeks ago
Good explanation Dante. I don’t think AI is going anywhere. While currently, we don’t have true AI’s, its early predecessors are in development by companies like Google, Microsoft, and IBM. A true AI should be able to think on its own or have its own conscience. So far, our examples of IBM Watson are just a hunk of algorithms and decision trees,…[Read more]

Great explanation Noah. The PC market, in general, has been in decline and the only thing that’s from complete crumble is PC gaming. I don’t think Rasberry Pi poses any threat to PC market. I feel like it’s a separate market on its own that’s very niche. I think it’s a great learning tool for anyone to learn Linux and computer in general as it’s a…[Read more]

Microsoft’s organizational structure is classified as divisional. It’s broken down into two divisions: engineering and business. One advantage the arises from this is the elimination of bureaucracy in the […]

Interesting stuff Tym, if you happen to know when the organizational transformation started, I would love to talk about it. Such a structurally deep change in such a large company was probably a very extreme process, as we have seen in many cases. It’s interesting to see how much organizational structure can still impact that operations of a technology, especially of Microsoft’s size.
-
I find this to be a fairly major structural change within Microsoft, especially given its size and influence in the technology industry. From my knowledge of Microsoft, I know the company was undergoing some business challenges in 2015 and early 2016, so I view this as a response to overcome inefficiencies and lack of innovation within the company. Since this change is still relatively new, I’m interested to see what type of impact it will have on Microsoft’s efficiency and upcoming product launches over the next few years.

The most important skill during my internship was to be able to integrate knowledge. Whether it was previous knowledge learned from school or new information that I learned during the various projects and clients, I had to learn how to see how all the pieces fit. To become a successful security consultant, you need to have a good basis of basic…[Read more]

During my internship, one of the things that I had to figure out on my own is the environment in the Lab. I enjoyed doing my work there and learning more different technologies. The most difficult part was that everyone has a very advanced understanding of penetration testing and the people that were there. Most were IST majors in college which…[Read more]

Tym – you mention that “hackers tend to understand human habits and the interdependence of systems which allows them to exploit multiple systems in one breach,” and go on to say “in order for security to improve, medical IT employees should start viewing their systems as interdependent structures rather than separate systems when configuring and implementing new technologies.” These two statements conflict with one another – if hackers understand system interdependence, how can we build a stronger wall of defense? I think it’s all a matter of healthcare providers shifting focus from yesterday’s security threats to tomorrow’s security threats, understanding the cyber landscape they are playing in and how they can best uphold the integrity of their patient’s information and care.

Tym,
I really enjoy the idea of our country moving towards a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly transportation model. It is clear that Ford isn’t producing any groundbreaking and disruptive innovation, but one can see that the market is shifting in a way that will likely result in some sort of disruptive innovation. The quicker gas and diesel are phased out, the greater a platform there will be for electric transportation to take the mainstage and prove its relevancy in this place and time. I personally find the appeal of an electric truck to be higher than the gas-powered, as their inefficiency is my main deterrent. Affordability will be an issue as always, but I can envision a future where the market has completely shifted.
