DDoS Multilingual Translation Project Manager: • Curated reports, white papers, presentations, videos, and other material to create a multilingual DDoS virtual library. • Further, I devised a machine translation model to translate library resources into Mandarin, Hindi, Japanese, and Korean. We successfully tuned a model that outperformed Google Cloud Platform’s (GCP) standard Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model, which uses an artificial neural network to increase fluency and accuracy in Google Translate.• Conducted research on BGP Flowspec, Team Cymru’s Unwanted Traffic Removal Service (UTRS), and other DDoS mitigation tools. We convened ISPs and DDoS Mitigation Providers to identify and solve legal, economic, and technical obstacles towards increased and enhanced DDoS data peering arrangements, formalized BGP Flowspec standards and norms, and strategized how to advocate, evangelize, and promote mass awareness and adoption of DDoS mitigation tools. A blog on this work was published with Team Cymru.
