Centralized eID May be the Target of the Next Nordstream Pipeline Attack
May 11, 2023

With the vast centralization of government digitization in general, and issuance and operation of Digital Identity services in particular, the Nordic countries have made themselves unnecessarily vulnerable to attacks by actors such as those with the resources to blow up the Nordstream pipelines in the Baltic Sea.

With the new Danish digital identity, MitID, as an example, I will discuss

  1. How governments and/or banks centrally attempt to strike a balance between vulnerability and user adoption,
  2. Why compliance and certification may only take you so far, and finally,
  3. How concepts such as wallets and Verifiable Credentials may decentralize the digital identity ecosystem not only for increased privacy but also for more robust and secure infrastructures less prone to attacks by bad actors.

Hack a Cloud and Kubernetes
May 10, 2023

People are under the impression that when you spin up the latest and greatest AKS, EKS, OpenShift or GKE instance, that you're secure. However with K8S, now more than ever the workload underneath matters. One privileged, neglected, container can compromise an entire setup. Rather than just talking about the risks or best practices, this talk is all about showing how easy it is to do.

The talk will first discuss possible attack paths in the Kubernetes cluster, and what differences exist in the attack techniques compared to classic infrastructures. For this purpose, a web application in a container will be compromised, then the Kubernetes cluster and the cloud account. Subsequently, 2 open-source tools will be discussed how such vulnerabilities and misconfigurations can be detected in the different infrastructure layers.

Reducing Complexity – Introducing a Practical Model for Security Classifications
May 11, 2023

Practical Cyber Security Architecture: Reducing complexity – Introducing a practical model for security classifications. Building and running cyber security in both worlds modern cloud security in combination with legacy on premises introduces extra complexity.  Some of the well-known security patterns and models are not applicable in cloud systems while the modern security models like zero trust barely  fit in legacy systems. Based on a model for security classification we will explore some practical methods for reducing complexity in modern cyber security.

The eID Threat Landscape – Stay Ahead of the Fraudsters
May 10, 2023

Cash grab-robberies are out, online fraud is in. When multinational hacker groups target senior and vulnerable citizens as a business model.

Learn how BankID is fighting fraud and helps you stay on top by identifying, preventing and notifying you of fraudulent usage in real time, while preserving top user experience.

The dream of tomorrows digitalized society is already a reality. Sweden is one of the world’s most digital and innovative societies. The fast and secure digital identification provided by BankID is a corner stone in this, to many, futuristic ecosystems. Many shops and stores do not accept cash and the amount of cash is low, something that inflicts digital threat. Studies shows a steep growth curve of digital fraud in several markets. In some places, fraud has surpassed drugs in turnover and profitability and fraud factories are popping up globally. Talented social engineering fraudsters and patterns with efficient crime-as-a service software, modus and tools. Fraud schemes including native and international fraud clusters targeting Swedish bank customers.

Learn more around the Risk and Anti-fraud toolset in the BankID Identity Platform. Digital identity is an area where the need for innovation is extensive. Whatever future eID scenario you discuss, security is always at the core.

Safeguarding IoT/OT/IIoT Devices, Their Identities and Communication with Autonomous Networking
May 11, 2023

Autonomous networking aims at the appropriate handling of the growing number of devices, machine, sensors and components for which authentication and authorization must be ensured, i.e., identities must exist. The initial provision of such identities, but also the handover and onboarding into the respective operational environment (WiFi, smart home, factory floor) require scalable, automated, end-to-end secured procedures and concepts to facilitate trusted communication, but also e.g., the provision of made-to-measure updates.
Making IoT/OT/IIoT identities and networks secure by design is essential. ACP (Autonomic Control Planes) and BRSKI (Bootstrapping Remote Secure Key Infrastructure) lay one foundation for achieving this.

Digital Identity (Wallet) in (International) Travel and Tourism
May 10, 2023

This panel discussion is addressing what is currently happening to make the travel and tourism ecosystem ready for the use of a digital identity that has the level of assurance to cross an international border, board a flight and sign in to a hotel. The travel ecosystem still revolves around a physical passport/ID card or drivers licence and this is about to see incremental, but pivotal changes. The digital wallet will also ad to the way we get ready to travel and add verifiable credentials that travellers can share in advance of their trip.

CAEP and Shared Signals - Past, Present and Future
May 10, 2023

What started as a simple blog post from Google has rapidly ballooned into an industry movement. Major vendors have implemented the Continuous Access Evaluation Protocol / Profile (CAEP) and analysts, practitioners and decision makers agree that it is critical to the future of zero-trust. This keynote, by the inventor of CAEP, goes into the pain points that led to the development of CAEP, the process to recast it as a part of the Shared Signals working group in the OpenID Foundation and the trends that make it an indispensable component of any zero-trust architecture. CAEP’s non-prescriptive nature makes it easy for anyone to implement their own policies and the Shared Signals Framework makes communicating changes efficient and nearly instantaneous. A future powered by Shared Signals and CAEP enables enterprises and vendors to break information silos to create a highly secure outcome.

Identity Inclusion – Why it Matters
May 09, 2023

The cornerstone of the digital world is trust and key to that experience is a secure and verifiable digital identity. More than one billion people worldwide lack a basic verifiable identity. Without recognizable and consistent proof of identity there can be no financial, health, citizen, or digital inclusion. Women in Identity is a not-for-profit organization championing diversity and inclusion in the identity sector.  Women in Identity enables change through awareness from our research projects (such as the code of conduct) and through our sponsors and members.  In this keynote the chair and vice chair of the Board will share insights on the impact of identity exclusion and provide practical and pragmatic ways organizations and individuals can help drive Identity inclusion.

The Invisible Man Paradox
May 12, 2023

How changing requirements for a seamless yet secure customer experience affect your Customer Identity solution

Today's consumers live parallel lives, with one foot in the physical world and the other foot leaving many digital footprints across the internet. In the physical world, trust is easier to build and identity is easier to validate. In the digital world the consumer is The Invisible Man - more difficult to interact and connect with but wanting a simple, effortless digital experience with impeccable security. 

In this session, we will explore how identity is the link between both worlds and is the centre of every great customer experience. From providing delightful experiences to ensuring security and privacy, we will show how the right Identity Solution resolves the Invisible Man paradox, building connection and trust in the digital world.

Automated Serverless Security Testing: Delivering Secure Apps Continuously
May 10, 2023

Serverless technology eliminates the need for development teams to provision servers, and it also results in some security threats being passed to the cloud provider. This frees up developers to concentrate on building logic and producing value quickly. But cloud functions still execute code. If the software is written poorly, it can lead to a cloud disaster.

How can developers ensure that their code is secure enough? They can scan for common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs) in open-source code. They can even scan their Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tool to identify insecure configurations. But what about custom code? At many organizations, the application security team struggles to keep up with the speed of development in a serverless environment. Traditional testing tools not only provide very limited coverage, but also slow development cycles unacceptably. Serverless code contains a mixture of cloud configurations and application programming interfaces (API) calls. As a result, legacy solutions lack the context that is necessary in a serverless environment, and the consequence is a lack of observability and slower response times.

Fortunately, it does not have to be this way. Organizations can leverage robust security during serverless development, automatically—if it is done properly. In this talk, we will discuss common risks in serverless environments. We will then cover existing testing methodologies and why they do not work well for serverless. Finally, we will present a new, completely frictionles

Three Years is a Long Time in Identity
May 10, 2023

Landing in a new organisation with a declared objective to transform the way customer identity was done but no mandate was daunting. Being able to look back three years later and tick of an infrastructure consolidation, the deployment of a central authorisation solution, being on the precipice of participating in a Digital ID scheme, and having the Chief Digital Officer shouting from the rooftops about a universal login is priceless. Come along to hear me talk about some critical success factors, calculated risks, fortunate circumstances, and the incredible support of some incredible people helped make this happen. I’ll also touch on my personal journey from an engineering role to a product person to illustrate the increasing maturity levels we went through.
