Biometrics: A New Wrinkle Changes the Authentication Landscape mercatoradvisory
Criminal theft of passwords has made passwords obsolete, and so a new factor is required for authentication. Biometrics will be that new factor. It increases security and will prove more convenient for the consumer than passwords as it transitions into a persistent identity over the next 5 to 8 years. Increasingly smartphones are shipping with trusted execution environments that can displace traditional hardware security fobs. These new smartphones are critical to this fundamental shift in biometrics.
A new research report from Mercator Advisory Group titled Biometrics: A New Wrinkle Changes the Authentication Landscape explains the need for multimodal biometric authentication and describes many types of biometrics available from various technology providers. The report shows how biometrics technology has shifted from a primarily hardware-based solution to a software-and cloud-based solution enabled by smartphones that have become much more secure. With voice and face recognition, and now the addition of behavioral biometrics, this shift will drive rapid new innovation and will tip the market in favor of the mobile architecture.

Omlis Data Breaches Report - An Inside Perspective Omlis
The rise in digital and mobile financial services has introduced an onset of increased data breaches over the last few years. The digital revolution has undermined the traditional framework used to regulate financial institutions, which has led to areas of vulnerability within their security systems.
In the report, Data Breaches: An Inside Perspective, Omlis conducted in-depth interviews with experienced cyber security professionals to understand why TFIs (traditional financial institutions) aren't adequately addressing security weaknesses.
In our research, the discussions centered on the types of security systems employed by TFIs, personal and industry-wide attitudes to security, and the types of security measures used to prevent breaches.
The findings indicate that TFIs current preference towards technology creates an increasingly complex system with associated vulnerabilities and ultimately it requires greater manual input for maintenance and updates.
There are also issues related to the attitudes of employees and difficulties implementing comprehensive and in-depth incident strategies.
Taking this into account, the report suggests a new direction for TFI's security systems to provide secure, innovative solutions.
Why is cyber security a disruption in the digital economyMark Albala
As we enter the digital economy, companies will quickly realize that the differentiator in the digital economy is information and information being a valuable resource is subject to theft, hacking, phishing and a host of other issues which compromise a company’s ability to participate in the digital economy. Cybersecurity misfires compromise the trust of buyers and partners necessary to participate in the digital economy. It is up to every company to ensure that the information shared with them is protected to the best of their ability and proactively notify persons and organizations who entrust their information necessary to transact business (any personal identity information including but not limited to addresses, credit card information, social security numbers, account information, credit information, medical records, etc.) with any potential compromises which can yield harm to them by that information either being used maliciously or shared with others.
The digital economy is different than other versions of commerce because in the digital economy, information is the lifeblood of digital commerce that passes through the hands of many platforms involved in a digital event. Each of these platforms are an opportunity to wreak havoc on your well-intended but incomplete intents to protect the information contained within the network you control. In the digital economy, it is not only the network you control, but the platforms that touch the personal data entrusted to you as a means of enabling digital commerce, and several techniques have begun to emerge to protect personal information contained within your information domain and the domain of platforms participating in digital commerce.
Because the life blood of the digital economy is information, information hacked in the digital economy is akin to shrinkage in the legacy economy. Both are means to directly attack your bottom line, whether it is redirecting customers elsewhere because they don’t trust your privacy program, ransomware which makes your site or one of your partner platform sites dangerous to use or some other reason which challenges your ability to participate in the digital economy. Shrinking the potential market share because of information safety and security challenges is a disruption, making cyber-security a disruptive activity, particularly if it is not dealt with swiftly.
If your cyber-security program is focused entirely on protecting the information housed in your four walls, you have exposed yourself to problems you will have difficulty in identifying both the source and the entry point of these issues.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
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.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
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.

INTRODUCTION
Over the past year,data breaches have impacted organizations of all types and sizes; from large
organizations to small businesses or governmental agencies, nobody is immune. As a result,
firms continue to invest in—and prioritize—information security.From an industry perspective,
variations are evident. For example, while the financial services, IT and government sectors
emphasize security strategy as a high priority, entertainment and travel companies invest less
in this area.
With the explosion of smartphone adoption, the number of people making purchases via
a mobile device has increased significantly. As eCommerce became mCommerce, payment
security became an area of considerable focus. During a “card not present” payment process,
a personal account number (PAN), expiration date, and card validation code (CVC) are not
enough to completely secure the transaction. However, new mechanisms such as 3D Secure
appear to increase the confidence of both consumers and eMerchants.
However, protecting a mobile device itself is necessary to ensure that only the owner is able
to use it. Although a simple mechanism such as a personal identification number (PIN) can
perform this task, in 2011, more than 60% of smartphone users were not using a PIN to
protect their mobile device.
Traditional password protection is not enough. Statistically speaking, well-known passwords
such as “1234”, “password” or “love” allow hackers to access personal data in 20% of the
cases. If this hacking strategy is coupled with a range of tools to obtain personal data (written
piece of software, keylogger, etc.) the chance to break the password could reach 55%.
In order to decrease the number of security breaches due to phishing, keyboard logging,
man-in-the-middle attacks or other methods, companies are integrating mobile OTP
(one-time password), OTP tokens and USB tokens. The OTP solution adds another level of
security protection as the use of a temporary password strongly protects network access and
end users.

OTP MARKET LANDSCAPE
Due to the widespread adoption of the Internet and wireless devices,there is a specific need to
fully secure digital home networks and associated services.The emergence of mobile payments
(online payment by using website platform or specific application) has increased this security
need. Strong authentication solutions improve the security level by incorporating another
security measure to overcome the weaknesses and limitations of static passwords.
As shown in Figure 2, the global OTP market is growing at a compound annual growth rate
(CAGR) of 7.5%. In 2012, the market was valued at $824.7 million and is projected to grow to
$1.189 billion by 2017.

OTP market revenue is driven by hardware and the USBToken market. This source of revenue
generates 83.7% of the total OTP market. The dominance of these revenue sources is not a
surprise, as these solutions are adopted by a significant proportion of companies. This type of
additional security measure has prompted rapid development of OTP solutions to deliver a
cost-effective solution to corporate clients. Verticals such as physical and logical access, online
payment or online gaming are the main areas of development. But the wide distribution of
smartphones and tablets, coupled with new usage cases such as BYOD, are further boosting
demand for OTP solutions. Both enterprises and financial institutions will be motivated to
invest in hardware OTP solutions, even if the software OTP market continues to be attractive.
It generated 16.3% of revenue for the total OTP market.
Market Drivers
As the volume of threats and the variety of breaches continue to grow, security protection
is a constant battle for companies. This year, a higher level of scale was reached when the US
government reported that more than 94 million records (containing personal information)
have been exposed since 2009 in the US alone. Nearly 81 million of these were due to the
loss or theft of mobile devices. High-profile instances involving major companies have also
emerged. For example, Yahoo! was attacked in July 2012, with a reported 400,000 plain-
text passwords stolen. Apple also revealed that a million Apple Unique Device Identifiers
(UDIDs) were hacked in September 2012. The proliferation of identity theft and data breaches
is the result of single-factor methods of authentication or weak passwords. Figure 3 describes
the most influential market drivers that increase demand for OTP solutions.

• Compliance with legislations, regulations and standards: With the recent
controversy information regarding NSA activity and the PRISM program, citizens will
probably be less reluctant to use strong authentication methods to access the network
or their personal data. With data security as a current major focus point, compliance
regulations and legislation continue to push organizations to use technology that
will effectively ensure the proper handling of sensitive data. This is particularly true for
payment and financial purposes with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
(FFIEC) and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), but is also

needed to protect health data following the Health InformationTechnology for Economic
and Clinical Health (HITECH) act. The emergence of governmental online services such
as tax declaration has compelled OTP solution providers to adhere to Identification-
Authentication-Signature European Citizen Card (IAS-ECC) in Europe.
• Need for two-factor authentication: This authentication method is now the most
popular globally and could drastically reduce the incidence of online security breaches.
As the name suggests, this solution provides two means of identification: something
that the user has (token) and something that the user knows (PIN). This is a minimum
requirement for network access or digital identification. Some industries are already
looking to stronger authentication methods,such as three-factor authentication,by adding
biometric data.
• Security cost rationalization: Overcoming legacy hardware token authentication is
a challenge for many organizations. Whether it be changing OTP providers or switching
to software-based authentication solutions, a change requires IT decision-makers to be
open-minded. With further education, decision-makers have come to understand the
benefits of software-based authentication and the use of more than a single form factor.
OTP vendors are working to change the perception of complex deployments by developing
platforms that promote interoperability and multiple forms of two-factor authentication.
The multiple network security breaches of 2012 that affected entities such as LinkedIn,
Nationwide Insurance and Apple have proven that any organization can be a target, or
susceptible to either a highly sophisticated attack or a small vulnerability in an application.
• Proliferation of identity theft and data breaches: 2012 was the year of data breach
proliferation, not only due to the increasing number of attacks, but also by the emergence
of large-scale data breaches. As the total number of Internet/mobile connections and
online payments has drastically increased, so has the total number of identity thefts and
data breaches. Identity theft gives a really negative influence to the market when it impacts
bank accounts security. This influence is lower when it comes from social media accounts
security. The emergence of mobile and online payment solutions created a specific need
to protect data and deliver enhanced security. The lack of international rules for data
protection allows the OTP solution to be seen as a trustable service by providing an easy-
to-install security solution.
• BYOD and cloud applications promote OTP adoption: The explosion of
smartphones and tablets has changed the way people use professional and personal
communication devices. The use of professional tablets is minor compared to consumer
tablets. Indeed, globally, the average percentage of professional tablets shipped will be
0.8% (2012-2017) when in the same time consumer tablets will reach 92.9% (2012-2017)
and E-Readers 6.3% (2012-2017). Finally, Mobile Device Management (MDM), Identity
Access Management (IAM) and even NFC payment are moving into the cloud. This trend
is the perfect answer to accelerate adoption of services and to decrease total investment
costs. However, the security of the cloud should be aligned to company policies. OTP,
in that case, is an accurate answer. The solution is accessible at any time, from any device,
and anywhere.

COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
The security industry is evolving rapidly in response to the explosion of mobile devices and the
emergence of new usages such as mobile payment and remote access. Only simple solutions
coupled with minimal investment will survive in this competitive landscape.The need to have
an authentication solution that is easy to use and that can allow a Single Sign On (SSO) element
is crucial. But an optimized, secured solution should also reach a high level of security by
providing reliable and strong authentication. OTP authentication vendors have understood
these market constraints and provided a broad range of authentication solutions in 2012.

strong market footprint. Authenticators could be used for authentication management, but
also to encipher and protect hard disks or to generate digital signature for emails or during
data transactions.
Personalized and Best-in-Class Solutions
RSA designed its business strategy by employing a customer-centric approach. Multiple form
factors and options (such as authentication manager) are available. For an enterprise or an
individual, a customized solution is crucial,as long as it is coupled with a reliable token. RSA has
developed convenient products that are aligned with client expectations. Consequently, SMBs
are able to find secure solutions to protect their network access. SMBs that were reluctant
to deploy authentication solutions because of the high investment cost can now use cost-
effective, risk-based and on-demand authentication systems.
