Katz College of Science and Health welcomed Julia Kogan Ehrlich for "Cybersecurity, AI & Leadership," a guest lecture on the forces shaping the future of technology.

Julia is a technology leader, angel investor and strategic advisor. A former Major in the IDF's elite Unit 8200, she spent nine years in Israeli intelligence leading large-scale technology and intelligence teams, then five years at BioCatch working with some of the world's largest financial institutions on cybersecurity and digital fraud.

Students and guests heard her perspective on where cybersecurity, AI, entrepreneurship and innovation meet, and what it takes to lead in fields that change this quickly. The evening closed with an interactive Q&A on building a career and making an impact in tech.

"We are so grateful to Julia for sharing her experience and insight with our students," said Sivan Tehila, director of the 's M.S. in Cybersecurity and CEO/Founder of Onyxia Cyber. "Hearing directly from a leader who has worked at the highest levels of intelligence, industry and investing gives our students a clear picture of what's possible in these fields."

Thank you, Julia, for an inspiring evening, and thank you to everyone who joined us!

The Katz School is now Katz College of Science and Health

Last Spring, Yeshiva University elevated the Katz School to Katz College of Science and Health, recognizing close to a decade of growth in enrollment, programs and impact, and the generosity of the Katz family.

Yeshiva University’s relationship with the Katz family spans generations. Mordecai “Morty” Katz, who passed away in 2021, was a Yeshiva University alumnus and longtime Trustee whose leadership and philanthropy helped shape the institution across its different schools. Alongside his wife, Dr. Nicky Katz, who earned her medical degree at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Morty was the driving force behind the Katz School, guided by a shared conviction that investing in people is the surest way to strengthen communities.

“My husband believed the most meaningful investment you can make is in people and their education,” said Dr. Katz. “Education shaped both of our lives, and he wanted the Katz School to be ambitious and excellent—demanding the very best—while remaining firmly rooted in Jewish values. Seeing it grow into a college defined by excellence, purpose and impact would have filled him with pride.”

In an interview taped at Channel 10's studio on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, Sivan Tehila, founder and CEO of Onyxia Cyber and director of 's master's in cybersecurity, discussed security tool sprawl, the shift from visibility to actionability, and how AI is redrawing entry-level cyber roles with Anat Katz, Anat Katz, Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer at 46C Group.

"The problem is not that products are lacking. There are plenty of products, but a lot of the time that is what creates more complexity," said Tehila. "Security leaders are sitting on a lot of data and a lot of products, and when they need a simple answer they have to go hunting for it across all of them."

Asked whether tools like ChatGPT and Claude make cybersecurity companies obsolete, Tehila was direct: "Unequivocally, we are relevant. AI can help with visibility and transparency up to a point. You still need engineers with real capability and professional experience to reach high-quality results."

On what that means for training the next generation: "What used to be entry-level roles solving problems at a technical level, very repetitive work, agents can already do today. What the industry needs is people with business understanding and the ability to work alongside AI." She pointed to Katz College of Science and Health's AI labs and cybersecurity operations center, and cited Gartner's projection that tier-1 roles will give way to security engineering roles by 2030.

Tirth Joshi, a student in Katz College's M.S. in Artificial Intelligence, won Best Poster at Network Science Informs AI 2026, a satellite event of the NetSci Conference 2026, for developing a new way to shrink large collections of data while preserving the features that reveal how information is organized.

“Most data analysis gets expensive as datasets grow,” said Joshi. “A landmark coreset is a small subset of the data chosen to stand in for the whole thing, so you can run the expensive computation on 250 points instead of 2,500 and still get an answer close to the truth.”

Existing approaches spread selected points throughout the data for broad coverage, but Joshi found this can miss small but important areas, like where two groups meet or where regions connect through a narrow bridge. He compares it to placing weather stations: spreading them evenly across a country gives good overall coverage, but misses the coastlines and mountain passes where conditions actually change.

“My argument is that coverage alone treats the dataset as a cloud of points and ignores the fact that data usually has a shape,” said Joshi. “The places that define the shape, the boundaries, the transitions, the thin connections, are exactly the places a coverage criterion has no reason to prioritize.”

Possible applications include creating simpler visual displays of complicated data, identifying groups within data and helping computer systems decide which examples are most useful to examine.
