It’s always really hard to think about what’s coming next in any industry, but when it comes to identity the question is especially complex because there’s a whole new dimension just around the corner. We haven’t yet solved the problem of identity for citizens, employees and consumers and now we’re going to have to solve a much bigger problem: identity for things. In a connected world, everything has identity, everything develops reputation and everything takes part in relationships.

Curiosity Stop Special: Techcrunch Disrupt 2016We Are Social
Techcrunch Disrupt is where some of the world’s most game-changing technologies and tech innovations are first revealed. Didn’t get a chance to go? Fear not. We've identified six of the most interesting themes and talks from this year to keep you in the know of what’s going to be big over the coming months.
With the annual hype fest known as the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) finishing up last week, now seems an instructive time to reflect on the hype cycle around technology and trends.
Many mistaken predictions all point to the imperfection and impermanence of the prediction business. For tech trends in particular, such as those being hatched last week at CES, it’s a perilous endeavor with few (if any) sure-fire winners and even fewer all-knowing prognosticators.
The Financial Times, in partnership with HP, recently held an event in Milan to discuss new CIO strategies for the digital age. Topics discussed included customer engagement, consistent delivery of service across all channels, strategies for driving innovation and supporting business growth, and security concerns in an era of BYOD and cloud services.
This white paper highlight key discussion points from the event.

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.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.
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.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

"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.

Editor's Notes
All the things you are
This is me buying soup at a Vietnamese stall, paying with chip and PIN, they have an iPad and mPOS. Is this new any more or mainstream?
Last year, we caved to the marketing pressures of modern business and put out a “hot five” technology blog post for 2014. For the most part, it was pretty accurate. Which ought to be no surprise, since as blog readers must realise, my colleagues at Consult Hyperion are always working on projects involving the exploitation of new technologies in the transactions business while I maintain the deceptive appearance of a blog based on random thoughts. As an example: my prediction that tokenisation would be hot in 2014 was a cheat based on the fact that I knew just how much tokenisation work was already going on all around me down at CHYP End, not a evidence for my crystal balls.
Dave Birch, founder and "global ambassador" at payments consultancy Consult Hyperion, believes that a new approach is needed. "I think the days of spending more and more on security like PCI-DSS are drawing to an end. The PAN- [permanent account number] centric card solutions will soon be replaced by chip and pin, tokenisation and new (identity-centric) alternative mechanisms," says Birch.
[From Retail malware: PCI-DSS is part of the problem, says retail security specialist Slava Gomzin - 07 Aug 2014 - Computing Feature]
Why the quotes? Are they implying that I'm not really the "Global Ambassador"! But to the point. I also said that "proximity and vicinity" interfaces would be hot and I stand by that having seen both NFC and BLE become a focus. Of course, these two predictions were not entirely unconnected.
This has been reported as being a technology initiative that undermines NFC, whereas I tend to think that it dovetails with it.
[From The "hot five" retail transaction technologies for our clients in 2014 - Tomorrow's Transactions]
I said APIs but that was also an easy prediction because everyone was saying the same thing and they were all right. I won’t say much more about this here as I’m going to be writing a couple of much longer posts about APIs early in the new year.
I said “recognition" because I could see that the increasing importance of transaction-appropriate identification and authentication technologies was shaping the business strategies available to our clients downstream and we are working on projects in that space right now. The key here is, as you might imagine, that the smartphone is capable to delivering a wide spectrum of identification and authentication possibilities and gives organisations real choices in how they recognise customers and how customers recognise them.
The one I didn’t think quite panned out as I was expecting was “small data”. I thought that more organisations would exploit the ability of the mobile to give customers a window into their own data and provide tools for managing and analysing that data. This certainly happened in some cases but not at the scale I was expecting (as I discovered when I tried to search my own bank accounts to find some transactions from a few months ago).

The first area is in-app payments. Much of the discussion around ApplePay, tokenisation, NFC and retail has naturally focused on the “tap and pay” simplicity of the proposition. However, there are lots of reasons for thinking that this will be a sideshow rather than the main event. The introduction of tokenisation means that in-app payments (“app and pay”) can now be more secure than chip and PIN payments and since I rather imagine that most retailers would prefer no POS to enhanced POS and given the experiences that we already see around us from Uber to AirBnB and KFC, I think that in-app payments will become the norm, the most frictionless way to pay. Once again, this is hardly a wild
