After doing above settings or even if you are expert, please share because there are many Facebook users, who are victim of Misuse / Abuse of this wonderful networking site.
You have a solid security infrastructure, all user data is encrypted, your users are protected right? As long as passwords remain the standard methods for identifying your users on the web, people will still continue to use "letmein" or "password123" for their secure login, and will continue to be shocked when their accounts become compromised.
Passwords are not secure, they need to be replaced. In this talk we're going to explore the pitfalls of a system designed around a username and password, then dive into the ways that technology is giving us a slew of new ways to build a secure user identity system. From biometrics to wearables, hardware to tokens, we'll explore a multitude of ways that we can finally kill all passwords.
Mobile Authentication using Biometrics & WearablesJonathan LeBlanc
Have you ever had to implement a client- or server-side authentication system and actually enjoyed it? Did you ever notice the wide landscape of mechanisms that seem to be complementary but are in fact hard to combine? As we move towards mobile-centric technology and wearables, this landscape becomes even more difficult to navigate.
Centralized group and identification mechanisms are starting to rise to fill this need, building out standards for how authentication should be implemented on emerging technology and devices. As these areas develop, the need for new security measures is also becoming paramount.
Come and join Jon Leblanc and Tim Messerschmidt from PayPal to learn about how identification, through biometrics, is being used to build the future of mobile centric devices and technology, breaking into the world of wearables. We’ll look at the security behind this technology, and see where the future of biometrics is leading us.

An authentication service is just one example of the identity services we've got planned. Come learn how all of them can improve business opportunities and enhance user experiences.
In a world where technology is transforming with mobile devices and wearables, its key to have a solid security backbone. From having a strong password to using biometrics, companies are finding ways to help consumers protect themselves without impacting the experience. We'll take a look at the current landscape of passwords, the importance of proper systems and how we can use wearables and mobile devices to build trust systems.
The audio for this presentation is available at https://archive.org/details/future_of_using_money
The lines between online and office commerce have completely blurred into a new age of connected commerce, and mobile technologies have risen to become the central point of that digital revolution. These changes in the mindset behind how we shop have simplified entrepreneurship within the physical space, and have streamlined the digital world to the point where the wallet is a dying necessity. In this session, we will delve into the technology that is driving the new age of commerce, and how new architectural models for buying and selling are becoming the new standard, including:
- The specifications behind how bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology is being used to create on-demand popup shops, facilitating commerce between any bluetooth connected devices.
- How open identity technology is being used as an instigator of commerce.
- Case studies on the ways mobile has changed the traditional ways we shop.
Creating a User-Centric Mobile Payment ArchitectureJonathan LeBlanc
Payment architectures are no longer flat experiences that are static for all users. Mobile experiences have become personalized, providing an identity infrastructure to promote payment ease for users. Through the lessons learned from a mobile first PayPal product overhaul, we'll explore how identity and in-app purchasing coalesce to create a scalable mobile payment infrastructure, looking into how building cross-platform payment personalization increasing user ease and revenue.
Building a modern API architecture is a constant struggle between ease of development and security. JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) introduce a means of building authentication into JSON objects being transmitted through APIs.
In this session we’ll explore how JWTs work to build verifiable and trusted objects, allowing them to be combined with standards such as OAuth 2 for capturing access tokens, leading to a secure means of JavaScript SDK dev.
Mobile devices are becoming a central point for the future of hardware and technology that is enabling commerce in the online and offline world. Being the enabler between body monitoring identification systems, wearable pairing, and merchant-based hardware and software, mobile hardware is becoming the most important central piece of technology towards the future of commerce.
As we look into the technology that is enabling this next stage of mobile commerce growth, we’ll explore the identification systems, hardware prototypes, digital currencies, and open technology that is becoming an accessory to this new mobile payments world.
Audio from the session at OSCON (Portland, OR) on July 22nd, 2015 is available at https://archive.org/details/protecting_future_mobile_payments
We are now in an age where more people have phones than toilets, and there are more active cell phones than people on the planet. How do we protect all of these devices as they’re roaming around unsecured locations, especially when we want to pay for something.
In this talk we’re going to rip apart the illusion of mobile security and explore some of the most difficult to secure experiences: payments. We’ll cover the concepts of building a rich feature set to protect the user, how to encrypt all interactions, building scalable trust zones, and extending identification with wearables and biometrics.
"Death To Passwords" was delivered at Mobile Tech Con 2014 in Munich. It's a talk covering the base weaknesses of passwords and which alternative technologies can help surpassing these.

Similar to Identity in the Future of Embeddables & Wearables (20)
JavaScript App Security: Auth and Identity on the ClientJonathan LeBlanc
The story is always the same; if you want to create a JavaScript centric app with API and identity security, you’re told that you need to have a server-side component for handling your identity and application security. That’s simply not the case in modern development.
In this session we'll look at client-side identity, API, and token security, exploring token downscoping methodologies, key management tools, and security on the client.
Improving Developer Onboarding Through Intelligent Data InsightsJonathan LeBlanc
A developer platform lives and dies by it's developer community. When huge problems need to be solved, it's easy to make valuable improvements, but what do you do when those are solved and you still see high bounce rates on your site, low developer application completion, and generally poor adoption of your product? This is where your data can save you.
In this talk we'll run through:
- How to track valuable developer path insights, from moments of anxiety to time to first valuable call.
- Overlaying support and ticketing information on top of developer path data to decrease developer friction.
- How to create automated analytics systems to measure success.
- When these systems should be built, before it's too late.
Better Data with Machine Learning and ServerlessJonathan LeBlanc
Creating valuable insights out of raw data files, such as audio or video, has traditionally been a very manual and tedious process, and has produced mixed results due to an influential human element in the mix.
Thanks to enhancements in machine learning systems, coupled with the rapidly deployable nature of serverless technology as a middleware layer, we are able to create highly sophisticated data insight platforms to replace the huge time requirements that have typically been required in the past.
With this in mind, we’ll look at:
- How to build end-to-end data insight and predictor systems, built on the back of serverless and machine learning systems.
- Best practices for working with serverless technology for ferrying information between raw data files and machine learning systems through an eventing system.
- Considerations and practical examples of working with the security implications of dealing with sensitive information.
Best Practices for Application Development with BoxJonathan LeBlanc
Covering the best practices for building new applications on top of Box platform, including token management, error condition and program flow, architecture, and other such topics.
This topic will go through current standards and future trends for building a scalable security model for distributed cloud based data. We’ll look into practices and considerations behind handing highly privileged data globally, diving into topics such as:
- How global compliance and regulations affect security practices.
- Handling data permissions, identity, and security with application access to data.
- Considerations, trends, and standards for global data availability.
Creating an In-Aisle Purchasing System from ScratchJonathan LeBlanc
The future of retail is in removing the divide between the offline shopping state and the enhanced online buying experience. To create this type of enhanced retail experience, we can remove complexities in the process, such as simplifying checkout.
In this session we’ll learn how to use internet-connected microelectronics to attach to a buyer’s mobile device to provide the functionality to buy products right from the aisle.
As web enabled systems become an integral part of everything we interact with, how do we secure data in potential unsecure environments?
In this session you'll learn how to apply fundamental security precepts in potentially insecure environments. Topics include:
Securing identity and payment data through voice commands or text
Tokenization and encryption security
Triggering secure transactions from communications media
We are in an age where more people have phones than toilets, and there are more active cell phones than people on the planet. How do we protect all of these devices roaming around unsecured locations, especially when they want to pay for something. Learn the secrets behind building a secure mobile backbone, as we explore how to harden security, build systems based on identity confidence, and work towards a future proofed mobile framework.
The arena of proper auth & data security standards is often some of the most misunderstood, confusing, and tricky aspects of building Node apps. Using open source auth techniques and proper data encryption standards, we’ll learn how to make intelligent decisions on creating a solid infrastructure to protect our users and data. We’ll dive into auth systems, data attack vectors, how to protect your systems, and common security pitfalls in Node.
The screencast of this presentation can be found at https://youtu.be/o3uy7dgG_n4
There is an assumption in the industry, amongst companies large and small alike, that if they store sensitive user data (and sometimes do some mild encryption) in their database, it's locked in and secured from potential attacks. People rely too heavily on their false assumptions of security, and it usually ends up costing them extensively when that is proven wrong.
In this session, Jonathan will build a foundation for identity and data security that everyone dealing with sensitive data should understand. We'll break down concepts of identity security, common attack vectors and how to protect yourself, and how to harden your web application.
Web enabled systems are now an integral part of everything we interact with, from microelectronics to voice enabled hardware, from text messages and phone calls to email, and really we’re just limited by our imaginations as to what we can connect. As we explore vast new realms of communication over mixed digital media, we have to ask ourselves how we protect our critical data within potential unsecure environments. Going beyond that, how do we protect some of our more critical data, payment information, in this same realm.
As we look at a multitude of different environments, we’ll be exploring how to secure user identity and payment information through the communication channels, covering topics like:
* Securing identity and payment data through voice commands or text.
* Tokenization and encryption security.
* Techniques for triggering secure transactions from communications media.
At the end of the session, we’ll have a stronger understanding of proper techniques for working with new communication media sources, and see how we can apply fundamental security precepts in potentially insecure environments.

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).

"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.
