Machine Learning and Information Security: How AI is Transforming Cyber Defense

Machine Learning is transforming modern cybersecurity by enabling faster, smarter, and more adaptive defense systems. As cyber threats become more sophisticated, traditional rule-based tools struggle to keep up. Machine Learning fills this gap by detecting anomalies, classifying malware, analyzing user behavior, and automating threat response. From supervised algorithms used to distinguish malicious files, to unsupervised models that discover unusual network activity, ML has become a core component of next-generation security. Reinforcement learning, behavioral analytics, and NLP-driven threat intelligence further strengthen an organization’s ability to prevent attacks before they unfold. While challenges such as adversarial ML, data privacy, and model manipulation remain, the future of cybersecurity clearly belongs to AI-powered detection and defense. Organizations that invest in smart automation today will be significantly better prepared for tomorrow’s evolving cyber landscape.

Developer Diary #2: A Week of Interactive Wallpaper Experiments, Faster Load Times, and New Game Directions

This week’s developer diary highlights the launch of a new interactive live wallpaper app, progress on an endless runner game, and major performance upgrades to the blog. From improved caching and faster load times to server optimizations and better memory allocation, the site is moving closer to a sub-3-second experience. Alongside building new apps and gathering open-access learning materials, this has been one of the most productive weeks yet — filled with creation, learning, and meaningful momentum.

How I’ve Been Preparing My Calculus and Statistics Revision Materials Using LaTeX

I’ve been preparing a new set of revision materials for calculus and statistics, and LaTeX has become my most powerful tool in the process. Instead of messy notes and scattered formulas, I can now create clean, structured documents with beautifully typeset equations, organized sections, and professional-looking PDFs.

In this post, I walk through how I’m using LaTeX, why it elevates my revision workflow, and how compiling .tex files into polished PDFs helps me study more effectively—especially during those long late-night sessions.
