Report on Expert Talk- Cybersecurity: How Engineers Think? & How Engineers Defend?
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering organized an Expert Talk on “Cybersecurity: How Hackers Think and How Engineers Defend” on 26.02.2026, from 09:30 AM to 12:15 PM. The session was delivered by Mr. Jobin Raj B S, AP, CSE, Mar Ephraem College of Engineering and Technology with the objective of enhancing students’ awareness and understanding of cybersecurity threats and defence strategies.
The session commenced with an introduction to the importance of cybersecurity in today’s digital era. The expert explained cybersecurity as the protection of systems, networks, and data from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. The session clearly differentiated between hackers and security engineers. Hackers attempt to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in systems, whereas security engineers focus on predicting threats, identifying weaknesses, and implementing protective measures. A key takeaway from the session was that effective system defence requires thinking like an attacker.
The speaker elaborated on the different types of hackers—White Hat (ethical hackers), Black Hat (criminal hackers), and Grey Hat (individuals with mixed intentions). Various common cyber threats such as phishing attacks, malware infections, password attacks, and social engineering techniques were discussed with practical examples. It was highlighted that hackers often exploit human errors, weak passwords, outdated software, and careless online behaviour. The concept of the CIA Triad—Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability—was introduced as the foundation of cybersecurity principles. Students were encouraged to adopt strong password policies, use multi-factor authentication, verify suspicious emails, and maintain a proactive security mindset.
The session was highly interactive and informative, enabling students to understand both the offensive and defensive perspectives in cybersecurity. The talk concluded with valuable guidance for students interested in building careers in cybersecurity, emphasizing the importance of networking fundamentals, Linux knowledge, and ethical responsibility.
The program concluded with a vote of thanks, expressing sincere appreciation to the speaker for delivering an insightful and impactful session.
