Digital Enlightenment Forum

The DIGITAL ENLIGHTENMENT FORUM, founded 2011 in Brussels, is providing a broad framework for debate and guidance on the rapid technological changes and their perceived impact on society and its governance. With Dr. Jacques Bus, Kim Cameron, Dr. Malcolm Crompton, Prof. Dr. Mireille Hildebrandt, Prof. Dr. Reinhard Posch, Prof. Dr. Kai Rannenberg and honorary member Prof. Dr. Ann Cavoukian, the membership list of this forum reads like the who-is-who in privacy-by-design and user controlled identity. Join this round table to discuss with these experts on emerging technologies for modern privacy protecting and trustworthy e-Identity.

After attending this you will be able to:

Explain the fundamental privacy concepts and laws in Europe.
Explain how managing user identity is the key to ensuring privacy online.
Describe the approach known as “privacy by design”
Describe the latest techniques and technology for ensuring privacy online.

Anonymous Credentials in Practice

Date: Thursday, April 19, 2012 Time: 10:30-12:30

Anonymous Credentials in Practice

Prof. Dr. Jaap-Henk Hoepman, Radboud University Nijmegen

Anonymous credentials allow users to reveal certain properties (like their age, nationality, subscriptions) about themselves, without revealing their full name. Such credentials have obvious privacy advantages. For increased security and improved user experience, such credentials are ideally implemented on a smart card. Until recently, however, the complex cryptography involved has made this impossible. In this talk I will discuss recent results that show that efficient implementations of...

What ABC4Trust can do for Privacy in eID

Dr. Ioannis Krontiris, Goethe University Frankfurt

The need for privacy-respecting use of unique identifiers in emerging European eID cards has been underlined by many. The emerging privacy-ABCs (Attribute-based Credentials) technologies have significant potential in this area. One of the goals of the European Project ABC4Trust is to provide a common unified architecture for privacy-ABCs that is independent of the specific technologies existing today (e.g. Idemix, U-Prove) and support the federation and interoperability between them. In this...

Privacy Protection: Architecture does not compromise, but application often will - what can be done?

The presentation will highlight that TAS3 as an architecture, with pair-wise pseudonymous design throughout, will not mandate as a technical requirement for operation any privacy compromise. However, we are fully aware that users may supply voluntarily to applications (sometimes the apps even have need to know) privacy compromising information. This motivates the legal/audit/accountability (trustworthiness) aspect of TAS3. Given that PII is going to be given to apps by users, there has to...

STORK: Technical Solution and Data Protection Considerations

Herbert Leitold, A-SIT, Graz University of Technology

The STORK Large Scale Pilot brought eighteen EU and EEA Member States together to implement an interoperability solution on top of their national eID initiatives. The solution has been tested between in 2010 and 2011 in six cross-border pilots. The presentation will describe the technical solution and will discuss lessons learned from its deployment in production systems. Particular attention will be given to privacy aspects. The presentation will describe what privacy measures have been...
