Building human capital through Learning Communities

Building human capital through Learning Communities As the world contends with the challenge of transitioning to sustainable energy systems, TU Delft plays a key role by supporting skill and knowledge acquisition through micro-learning communities. These initiatives aim to build the human capital needed to drive innovation and lead the energy transition in a collaborative learning setting where professionals and researchers work on solutions while building on their competences. At the heart of these efforts is the TU Delft Extension School, which recently secured top-up funding to facilitate micro-learning communities for the DEMOSES and HyChain-ESI projects. Rather than focusing solely on technical solutions, TU Delft facilitates bridging the gap between academia, industry, and policy providing additional ways to educate new generations of engineers for the energy sector alongside today’s professionals. Through the Extension School it promotes continuous learning and prepares a workforce capable of tackling the uncertainties of the energy transition now and in the future. Photo by Jason Goodman on Unsplash Promoting Lifelong Learning and Collaboration Supporting learning communities aligns with TU Delft’s lifelong learning strategy that aims to deliver a variety of accessible, cutting-edge learning experiences that integrate education into professional life.. As the micro-learning communities bring together diverse stakeholders, including academics, industry professionals, and policymakers, promoting knowledge exchange and co-creation of solutions. This collaborative environment helps dismantle barriers, ensuring that outcomes are relevant to real-world challenges, while also enhancing individual expertise and collective problem-solving abilities. The DEMOSES and HyChain-ESI projects, which focus on energy system integration and hydrogen technologies,illustrate how these micro-learning communities operate. Their main aim is to advance specific technologies while continuously upskilling energy sector professionals to meet emerging challenges. TU Delft provides a structured environment for collaboration, enabling participants to acquire new skills and return to their organisations ready to inspire further innovation. This continuous learning process, supported by tools such as serious games and hands-on workshops, enhances expertise, facilitates knowledge sharing, and promotes sector-wide innovation. ET-TLC: Learning Communities for Students Another example of TU Delft’s successful implementation of learning communities is the ET-TLC project, which centres on students. These communities create a rich learning environmentt that facilitates transdisciplinary education, equipping students with deeper skills and providing concrete insights into how they can inpact society. Through a transformative identity formation process, students are encouraged to rethink and redefine traditional notions of engineering, challenging them on who an engineer could or should be. Shaping the Future of Energy Innovation In essence, TU Delft’s focus on lifelong learning and its role in facilitating micro-learning communities are helping to build the human capital needed to drive the energy transition. By investing in professional development and creating environments for shared learning, TU Delft educates an adaptable workforce to shape the future of energy systems and innovation itself Unlock new lifelong learning opportunities and lead the energy transition with TU Delft!

TU Delft CTF 2024: Hundreds of Hackers Join Largest Dutch Cybersecurity Competition

TU Delft's annual Capture The Flag (CTF) competition made history this year as the largest beginner-friendly hacking competition in the Netherlands. Bringing together hundreds of students, tech enthusiasts, and cybersecurity newcomers, the event featured a day packed with problem-solving, hacking, and learning on the TU Delft campus.

Jack Cable (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency) gives CYS distinguished talk

October is the "Cybersecurity Awareness Month". At TU Delft Cybersecurity group, we hosted Jack Cable from Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency who gave a talk on October 3 about his latest work on "Showing the Receipts: Understanding the Modern Ransomware Ecosystem" that appeared in e-Crime 2024. Ransomware attacks continue to wreak havoc across the globe, with public reports of total ransomware payments topping billions of dollars annually. While the use of cryptocurrency presents an avenue to understand the tactics of ransomware actors, to date published research has been constrained by relatively limited public datasets of ransomware payments. We present novel techniques to identify ransomware payments with low false positives, classifying nearly $700 million in previously-unreported ransomware payments. We publish the largest public dataset of over $900 million in ransomware payments -- several times larger than any existing public dataset. We then leverage this expanded dataset to present an analysis focused on understanding the activities of ransomware groups over time. This provides unique insights into ransomware behavior and a corpus for future study of ransomware cybercriminal activity. Jack Cable is a Senior Technical Advisor at CISA, where he leads the agency's work on Secure by Design and open source software security. Prior to that, Jack worked as a TechCongress Fellow for the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, advising Chairman Gary Peters on cybersecurity policy, including election security and open source software security. He previously worked as a Security Architect at Krebs Stamos Group. Jack also served as an Election Security Technical Advisor at CISA, where he created Crossfeed, a pilot to scan election assets nationwide. Jack is a top bug bounty hacker, having identified over 350 vulnerabilities in hundreds of companies. After placing first in the Hack the Air Force bug bounty challenge, he began working at the Pentagon’s Defense Digital Service. Jack holds a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Stanford University and has published academic research on election security, ransomware, and cloud security.
