Cyber Summit 2016: Technology, Education, and Democracy
What are the opportunities and the challenges offered by emerging modes of technologically-inflected communication and decision-making? What is our role and responsibility as educators and as developers of research and teaching digital infrastructures? What do students need in the 21st century? As education institutions and providers struggle to respond to the first two questions, are we abrogating our responsibility to the last?
In this talk, Matt Ratto will describe some of the opportunities and the challenges we currently face, laying out a model of action for how to potentially address the questions raised above. Core to his thinking are two related points; first that we must help students develop a greater sense of how the informational world and its attendant infrastructures helps shape how and what we think, and second, that a good way to do this is to give students the space to engage in reflexive acts of technological production – what Matt has termed ‘critical making.’ He will provide concrete examples from both his research and his teaching that demonstrate the value and importance of reflexive, hands-on work with digital technologies in helping students develop the critical digital literacy skills they need to function in today’s society.
Matt Ratto is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Information at the University of Toronto and directs the Semaphore Research cluster on Inclusive Design, Mobile and Pervasive Computing and, as part of Semaphore, the Critical Making lab.
Cyber Summit 2016: Understanding Users' (In)Secure Behaviour
1) The document summarizes a user study on phishing detection that found users still struggle to accurately identify phishing sites, being successful only 53% of the time on phishing sites and 78% on legitimate sites.
2) The study also found that users have only a shallow understanding of security indicators and place more attention on page content than security cues. Nearly half did not recognize a phishing version of their own bank site.
3) The presentation argues that common password policies may do more harm than good by placing unreasonable demands on human memory and behavior. It suggests rethinking such policies and advice to consider human capabilities and provide more practical and beneficial guidance.
Cyber Summit 2016: Insider Threat Indicators: Human Behaviour
Serious threats to private and governmental organizations do not only come from the outside world, but also come from within. Some employees and contractors with legitimate access to buildings, networks, assets and information deliberately misuse their priviledged access to cause harm to their organization. What are the reasons behind their actions? Is it debts, greed, ideology, disgruntlement, or divided loyalty?
Regardless of their motivations or vulnerabilities, traitors have very similar types of personality and display a certain pattern of behaviours before committing an insider incident. As a prevention measure, it is vital that organizations and employees understand, recognize and detect the common indicators of insider threat. Would you recognize the signs?
Mario Vachon is an Insider Threat Security Specialist with the RCMP Departmental Security Branch.
Cyber Summit 2016: Research Data and the Canadian Innovation Challenge
Canada allocates a substantial amount of public funding to research, which is a critical factor in ensuring we remain innovative and competitive. Increasingly this funding is geared to the support and development of digital research infrastructure (DRI), including the underlying networks and the associated data acquisition, storage, analysis and visualization. In order to maximize the benefits of increasingly complex DRI and the research it facilitates, it is important to make sure data is properly stewarded, accessible and reusable. By adopting appropriate approaches to research data management we are better positioned to respond to challenges, such as effectively measuring research impacts, and ensuring the reproducibility, privacy, and security of research outputs.
Research Data Canada (RDC) is a member-driven organization committed to developing a sustainable approach to research data management, one based on interoperability and best practices. This session will provide an update on the efforts of RDC and partner organizations, including: CANARIE, Compute Canada, CARL Portage Network, CASRAI, the TriAgencies, and the Leadership Council for Digital Infrastructure. Intersections with international activities and projects will also be highlighted. These efforts are ultimately designed to faciliate a cohesive national approach to research data management, and one based on a clearly articulated vision for supporting innovation and discovery in Canada.
Mark Leggott is the Executive Director of Research Data Canada.
Cyber Summit 2016: Knowing More and Understanding Less in the Age of Big Data
The Internet has revolutionized how — and how much — each of us can know. Our digital tools put the knowledge of the world at our fingertips — and soon, maybe, right into our heads. But what kinds of of knowledge do our devices give us, and how are they reshaping and challenging the role that education and libraries should play in our lives?
This talk was delivered by Michael Patrick Lynch, professor of philosophy at the University of Connecticut, where he directs the university’s Humanities Institute.

Cyber Summit 2016: Establishing an Ethics Framework for Predictive Analytics ...
This document summarizes a presentation about establishing an ethics framework for predictive analytics using student data in higher education. It discusses how technology has enabled more data collection and predictive modeling of student behavior. However, few guidelines exist for these practices. The presentation advocates developing an ethics framework that safeguards student privacy, promotes transparency, considers unintended consequences, and involves consultation. It also examines existing principles and discusses challenges like opaque predictive models that work against students' interests. The presenter argues universities should internalize norms of respecting trust and serving students, not just avoiding legal issues.
Cyber Summit 2016: The Data Tsunami vs The Network: How More Data Changes Eve...
Canada’s National Research and Education Network, like other ultra-speed research networks, has evolved to transfer massive amounts of data at 100Gbps and beyond. But with the volume of data traffic growing at more than 50% per year, the ability to move increasing volumes of data is challenging. What are the kinds of applications in research and education that are driving this growth? What are the implications of the coming data tsunami on our communication networks? And what happens to network economics to keep up with the demand? CANARIE’s Chief Technology Officer, Mark Wolff, explores these topics and offer insights into how the NREN will evolve to continue to meet the unique needs of Canada’s research and education community.

Do Universities Dream of Big Data
Historically, the University of Alberta lacked a centrally managed repository for reporting data, resulting in inconsistency and disparity in access for units across campus. Meaningful and actionable reports were limited, and only focused on the interests and goals of the few units with data analysts who could synthesize the information.
Over the last couple of years, the University of Alberta has undertaken major changes in how information is managed and utilized. At the forefront of this change has been an increased interest in supporting the development of analytics and supporting tools. Beginning with the implementation of a centrally managed data warehouse with self-service capabilities, and the introduction of cloud services with business process analysis tools, the University is just starting down the road of big data.
This presentation explores opportunities and challenges for the University of Alberta in utilizing big data.
Predicting the Future With Microsoft Bing
The next generation of data scientists will be asked to build predictive models that can extract inferences from very large datasets which are unobservable at the surface, even to the best domain experts. Microsoft has access to some truly large data sets, web and search data from the Bing search engine and social data through collaborations with Twitter. In this talk, we show you how a small team of data scientists used this data to build the Bing Predicts engine — a collection of machine learnt predictive models that is beating industry experts at predicting the outcome of events like the Super Bowl, the Oscars, elections and referendums and even breakthroughs in health sciences. The talk will also give a preview of how organizations can adopt a big data mindset to generate and experiment with large data sets and to make amazing predictions using their own data.

This talk will discuss the past, present and future of MOOCs.
Opening the doors of the laboratory
While the use of online instructional technologies allows the presentation of theoretical science materials, how do we deal with the fact that such courses often include hands-on labs? Laboratory simulations can only provide a solution for online students in a limited and often artificial way. Nearly 20 years ago, Athabasca University developed a solution to the problem of students having to travel to complete their lab work. Emerging technologies at the time allowed for quantitative physics labs to be sent to students as a small kit. The physics initiative was so successful, with over 5,000 students served, that it was picked up in other fields at Athabasca University.
Over the years, such material has become cheaper, easier to use, and more integrated with modern computers. Athabasca is now pioneering ways to put real labs directly onto the internet. In this session, the methods used to make real lab experiences available to online students will be discussed, and some of them demonstrated.
