Working across a collaborative global community of industry, government, and academia, Dr. Liaghati leads MITRE’s Trustworthy & Secure AI Department and MITRE ATLAS, where she passionately drives research and developments in trustworthy and secure AI for everyone working to leverage AI-enabled systems. Leading her department of 50+ scientist and engineers and serving the community with the not-for-profit, objective, MITRE perspective, she is dedicated to working together to create and openly share actionable tools, capabilities, data, and frameworks for trustworthy and secure AI like ATLAS, an ATT&CK-style framework of the threats and vulnerabilities of AI-enabled systems.
As Dr. Liaghati has worked across the community to improve the common understanding of AI security concerns, her work quickly started overlapping with broader AI assurance concerns, which includes AI equitability, interpretability, reliability, robustness, safety, and needs for privacy enhancement. As a result of this expansion beyond AI security into more of these elements of trustworthy AI and AI assurance, her current focus under ATLAS and across the international community is to build a protected mechanism for increased knowledge and incident sharing across government and industry in both AI security and the broader areas of AI assurance.
