Distributed Identity using the example of a digital vaccination card
Sep 14, 2021

Distributed Identity (DI) is less known to many and even less in connection with the pandemic. The concept that DI delivers is an excellent starting point for creating a digital vaccination record.

Why DI is generally a good idea and what a digital vaccination record based on it can look like, is shown in this lecture. If you want to explain to your family in practical terms what IAM, IGA and PAM do: get vaccinated and (hopefully soon) apply for a digital vaccination certificate!

How to Thrive in an Accelerated Access management world
Sep 14, 2021

Research from 2020 has shown a phonemonal growth in the access management market.

The pandemic, for all its impact, has enabled organisations to re-evaluate their working strategies and practices. But at what cost? Cybercrime on corporate applications has risen exponentially from the dispersed workforce and rapid cloud adoption has left organisations vulnerable to ransomware, malicious activity and internal subterfuge.

Danna Bethlehem, Director Product Marketing Authentication at Thales discusses how organisations can accelerate their business with the right approach to their IAM strategy. For 2021 and beyond, enterprises need to leave survival mode behind and adopt a drive to thrive.

Drawing on recently released research into the EMEA IAM market, she will highlight:

  • How demands of the corporate workforce for dispersed working is bringing IAM security concerns to the fore
  • How the next generational approach to IAM can enable forward thinking organisations to thrive
  • How enterprises can build an effective IAM strategy to drive their growth

Building Mindset for Privileged Access
Sep 14, 2021

For most companies, privileged access management is associated with creating borders or limitations. Often organizations are forced to implement PAM due to the legal regulations and do not see it as an investment but rather consider cybersecurity as a cost center. Moreover, most employees think of it as another layer of control and make an assumption that the company does not trust them.

"That’s Not Fair!": Detecting Algorithmic Bias with Open-Source Tools
Sep 15, 2021

The harm that the misuse of AI/ML can have is obvious, from the ProPublica Recidivism piece from 2016 to the latest discovery of bias in facial recognition classifiers by Joy Buolamwini.

 

The need for tools to use AI/ML ethically is concentrated in two particular areas: transparency and fairness. Transparency involves knowing why an ML system came to the conclusion that it did—something that is essential if we are to identity bias. In some forms of ML, this is difficult. We’ll cover two tools to assist with transparency: LIME and SHAP. We’ll highlight where each of these tools performs well and poorly, and provide recommendations for utilizing them in unison where appropriate.

 

Once transparency is established, we’ll pause to evaluate potential sources of bias that would affect the fairness of a particular algorithm. Here the number of tools available is far-reaching. We’ll start with an explanation of bias metrics, explaining the roles that true/false positives and true/false negatives play in calculating various accuracy metrics. The basics of fairness established, then we will explore various tools used against a few, publicly available sample ML implementations. Tools in this review will include: Aequitas, AIF360, Audit-AI, FairML, Fairness Comparison, Fairness Measures, FairTest, Themis™, and Themis-ML. We’ll compare these tools, providing recommendations on their usage and profiling their strengths and weaknesses.

Identity and the Rise of the Platforms
Sep 13, 2021

The first era of SaaS is ending, and we are entering a new era of convergence. This new era will result in new kinds of enterprise platforms that converge discrete functionalities into new systems of delivery. Best of breed solutions will all but disappear. Point solutions will fade away. The identity industry will fundamentally shift. The traditional IAM vendors you know are going to face competition from Salesforce, ServiceNow, Workday and others. You, the customer, are going to be influenced more and more by these players and their new systems of delivery. In this session, I will explore what is driving this trend and how it may shape the future of the identity industry.

IATA Travel Pass - Self Sovereignty in Action
Sep 15, 2021
Self-sovereign identity has been a hot topic at EIC since 2016. We've seen it rapidly go from concept to reality, with a massive increase in global interest from car manufacturers to banks to healthcare. We've seen innovative pilot projects, new software and exciting new privacy innovations. 
But what happens when advanced new technology and protocols come into contact with the real world? In this talk, Andy will describe how SSI underpins the IATA Travel Pass ecosystem. He'll cover some of the implementation challenges, the do's and don'ts, and describe how the technology is just one small cog in the machine that comprises airlines, airports, testing laboratories and governments around the world. 
As IATA's technology partner, Evernym has been at the centre of the storm of global travel pass innovation, and Andy will give you a look under the covers of what a global SSI rollout looks like.

How Denmark is Building the Cyberprotection Bridge Between the Private and Public Sectors: The National Danish Cybersecurity Council
Sep 15, 2021

Denmark is among the most digitaized countries in the world and as the digitarization strategy moves forward, it is necessary to improve and enhance the nation's overall cyberprotection. In 2019, the Government appointed a new 20-member national Cybersecurity Council for the period of two years. The council’s role is to advise the government on new initiatives that can support both the private and public sectors by improving resillience and better cyberprotection; contribute to knowledge sharing, advisories and guidance on the strategic level; and look into the need for cyber security competences and suggest measures to further develop these, both among private citizens and employees, as well as within education and research.

In this session, you will get a view into the midway status of the work of the Council, and will learn which initiatives work and which need more effort. The Council has been advising the healthcare authorities on the Danish COVID-19 app, and has been discussing the SolarWinds hack and the upcoming vaccination passport.
