Securing the Internet of Things Opportunity: Putting Cybersecurity at the Hea...Capgemini
The potential trillion dollar Internet of Things (IoT) business opportunity rests precariously on one critical factor – security. 71% of executives in our survey agreed that security concerns will influence customers’ purchase decision for IoT products. However, despite increasing cyber attacks and ample warning from security experts, most organizations do not provide adequate security and privacy safeguards for their IoT products. In fact, only 33% of IoT executives in our survey believe that the IoT products in their industry are highly resilient to cyber security attacks. Further, despite rising consumer concerns regarding data privacy, 47% of organizations do not provide any privacy related information regarding their IoT products.
So, why are organizations lagging behind in securing their IoT products and systems? Key reasons for this include an expanded attack surface, inefficiencies in the IoT product development process, and the lack of specialized security skill-sets. For instance, our survey showed that only 48% of companies focus on securing their IoT products from the beginning of the product development phase. Building a secure IoT system begins with the recognition that security needs to be as much of a priority as the features and functionality of an IoT product. The report highlights the key measures that organizations must take in order to put security at the core of their IoT value proposition.

Digital Maturity in Health Systems – The DigiM Framework and How to Use it with Sara Vaezy and Paddy Padmanabhan
Learn Objectives:
- Understanding digital maturity in health systems
- Applying an objective, structured assessment tool such as DigiM to evaluate digital maturity
- Developing a roadmap for accelerating technology-led transformation
Health systems have been on a digital transformation journey for the past few years. However, there is no structured framework to assess the maturity of health systems, specifically from a technology enablement standpoint. Damo Consulting’s DigiM framework addresses this gap with an online assessment tool that helps healthcare leaders benchmark themselves against their peers. The framework also assesses the relative maturity of the digital transformation vision against the execution of the strategy.
Using recently concluded research and data points from self-assessments by several health systems, this session will provide a roadmap for digital transformation leaders looking to take an objective view of their progress and prioritize their investments to meet their enterprise goals.

The Currency of Trust: Why Banks and Insurers Must Make Customer Data Safer a...Capgemini
Are banks and insurers a safe pair of hands when it comes to customer data? Our global survey of more than 180 senior data privacy and security professionals – as well as 7,600 consumers – found that less than a third (29%) of these organizations offer both strong data privacy practices and a sound security strategy. Just one in five (21%) are highly confident that they can detect a cybersecurity breach.
This picture has so far not unduly affected consumers’ perceptions of the industry. We found that 83% of consumers trust banks and insurers when it comes to data. And while one in four institutions have reported being victim of a hack, just 3% of consumers believe their own bank or insurer has ever been breached. However, with the pending General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regulations, this trust factor is likely to change as transparency increases. Financial organizations have to reveal a data breach 72 hours after the incident.
Banks and insurance firms have a clear incentive therefore to fortify their defences. As well as avoiding the prohibitive fines and penalties that will result from compromised data, protecting privacy offers a strategic business advantage. Addressing security concerns will drive greater adoption of low-cost digital channels. We found that security concerns deter nearly half of consumers (47%) from using digital channels. It will also reduce churn and attract competitors’ customers – 74% of consumers would switch their bank or insurer in the event of a data breach.
Preparing to be a trusted data steward is no easy task, however. It means raising the bar on multiple dimensions:
• Aligning data practices with consumers’ expectations
• Finding innovative ways of providing non-intrusive security to consumers
• Building the capabilities required to monitor cyber risks on a real-time basis
• Revisiting the data governance model.
Building your reputation for data privacy and robust security is definitely challenging. But, those who strike the right chord with consumers will enjoy a competitive advantage over their peers. The winners will be those who triumph in the trust game.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024

As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
