What we’re about
ACM Chicago is a non-profit professional group that meets regularly to discuss diverse topics in computer science such as predictive analytics, applied machine learning, statistical modeling, open data, and data visualization, user experience, user research, and artificial neural networks. Meeting topics are varied and range from tutorials on basic concepts and their applications, to success stories from local practitioners and academic students, to discussions of tools, new technologies, and best practices. All are welcome to attend, to meet others, and to present their work.
ACM Chicago is powered by the Chicago ACM Professional Chapter, and the Chicago CHI ACM Chapter of ACM.org. Interested in helping out? Reach out to our organizers or our ACM Local Program.

Dear ACM Chicago Chapter members! On June 25, we join IEEE VTS Chicago to host a virtual event:
## Prevention and Detection of Cyberattacks in Charging Infrastructure and Enterprise Systems
Event Description:
Geographically distributed networks of devices like Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) or electric vehicle charging infrastructure pose unique security challenges.
This type of network is composed of interconnected nodes with different levels of security controls and a wide threat surface. In this type of network, untrusted peripheral nodes (e.g., charging stations) may become an easy target for an initial compromise and a stepping stone into more central nodes, e.g., management systems. With the widespread adoption of “smart” devices, which sense their environment and use communication channels to report their data, this type of lateral movement is increasingly likely. This talk will present recent work done by the Discovery Partners Institute on attack prevention, detection, and response on distributed network of devices and enterprise systems.Presenter:
