Enhanced Social Accountability through Open Access to DataSoren Gigler
Opening access to data is an important step toward improving the performance of public institutions in providing public services, and more broadly, to enhance support for good governance and social accountability.
The logic of Open Government Data is simple—a more open and transparent government invites citizen engagement. As citizens engage with their government, they demand greater accountability while also contributing
to innovation: by using their rich knowledge to demand better services and by offering their own solutions
to perennial problems, citizens enhance the quality of governance via the “insights of the crowds.”
The following paper describes some of the early experience of the World Bank to leverage the power of open data and geo-coding to enhance accountability and improve the effectiveness of development programs.

It's important to recognize that open data lives within an open government framework and that open government contributes to the goals of a smart/intelligent community. And when we say community ... it is also a continuum from local to global proportions.
Big data is exploding exponentially and providing many opportunities for entrepreneurs. Open Data has become a global movement with McKinsey Institute study suggesting a $3 trillion economic value potential from open data. A number of "smart opportunities" are explored.

E-Governance in Africa From Theory to Action a Handbook on icts for Local Gov...Angelika B.
Electronic governance or e-governance is the application of information technology for delivering government services, exchange of information, communication transactions, integration of various stand-alone systems between government to citizen (G2C), government-to-business (G2B), government-to-government (G2G), government-to-employees (G2E) as well as back-office processes and interactions within the entire governance framework.[1] Through e-governance, government services are made available to citizens through IT. The three main target groups that can be distinguished in governance concepts are government, citizens, and businesses/interest groups. Although the two terms are often used interchangeably, there is a difference between e-governance and e-government. E-government refers to the use of the ICTs in public administration which, when combined with organizational change and new skills, are intended to improve public services and democratic processes and to strengthen support to the public. However, e-government has no provision for governance of ICTs. The governance of ICTs typically requires a substantial increase in regulation and policy-making capabilities, as well as additional expertise and opinion-shaping processes among various social stakeholders. The perspective of e-governance is "the use of the technologies that both help to govern and have to be governed".[2] The central goal of e-governance is to reach the beneficiary and to ensure that their service needs are met. Ideally, the government will automatically recognize the importance of achieving this goal in order to maximize its efficiency.
Digital governance or e-Governance can be defined as the use of information and communication technology by the government to provide the quality information and services to citizens, businesses, voluntary organizations, and other government agencies in an efficient, cost-effective, and convenient manner and to bring transparency, accountability in government functioning to strengthen democracy.

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.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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).

Editor's Notes
Government letting go and empowering innovation via Cloud Computing, Open Data and public-private partnerships (PPPs) Active citizen participation (and co-creation) in policy and decision-making and service design and deliveryService-oriented, Modern, Accountable, Responsive and Transparent (SMART) GovernmentLeading Countries:Openness, transparency, and accountability (Open Government, Open Data, Social Media policies): US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, IndiaPublic-private partnerships to deliver services and infrastructure: US, India, Ghana, Czech Republic, EstoniaCloud Computing-based sharing of infrastructure and services via: UK, US, Singapore, Korea, Japan
Open Government is an evolution of eGovernment. It creates added value around eGov (online services, architectures, interoperability standards) by linking open data, citizen feedback, new eServices and apps, new delivery channels, social media, etc. eGov provides invaluable starting points that Open Government leverages. While e-government has been rightly been done by government to citizens, the next stage is to involve citizens more directly in helping deliver efficient and effective public services - and to feel more ownership of the result. One way to think it: Open Gov applies a more "shared ownership" and co-creation model to the eGov "stack" – from infrastructure to the services and policy layers. This means that top-down pressure for improvement is complemented by bottom-up pressure for improvement too. However it is more complex, and the government must take the lead in creating and managing the “ecosystem” of open government. World Bank has been working with many other governments and civil society around the world to find best practices. Each country is different, so these cannot be simply applied either at federal or regional level. Bank’s value proposition: World Bank can play a unique role in partnering with Russia on Open Government – as a knowledge bridge to the world’s best practices, leading experts and government peers, as well as a source of targeted support in execution of Open Government ecosystem.
Leadership: High-level government leadership must be a primary driver for successfully executing any open government strategy. The World Bank's knowledge sharing platforms such as the Leaders for Transformation Network bring together top leaders to share experiences and provide peer support in leveraging ICT. Policy/Legal Framework: A supportive policy and legal framework is essential to open government. Issues such as data management, privacy, information access (including Freedom of Information), data reuse and licensing must be addressed. The World Bank has helped develop policies on ICT related components in a number of countries, including Moldova, Macedonia, Ghana, and Sri Lanka.Institutions:Individual agencies hold primary responsibility for translating open government into real applications and services. Yet, open government on a whole-of-government basis requires high levels of coordination. The World Bank has supported the evolution of institutional partners such as the eGovernment Center in Moldova into first class managers of a major $20 million Government eTransformation Project.Applications and e-Services: The World Bank partners with governments to help translate open government from words into actions that impact people's lives requires the development of innovative applications and e-services. This is happening every day in countries and cities around the world – the Water Hackathon event recently organized by The World Bank teamed up more than 800 water and technology experts in cities around the world to create technology solutions to local and global water challenges.Capacity Building: Open government requires changes to how agencies conduct business, and even how they define their core mission. In the context of Moldova Governance eTransformation (GeT) project through the HELP (High-level Experts for Leaders and Practioners) group of leading CIOs andknowledge exchange activities (e.g. South-South collaboration with India, Singapore, Korea and Estonia) The World Bank has catalyzed policy development on open government as well as contributed to increased capacity of government counterparts and other stakeholders.Citizen Engagement: The World Bank supports creation of citizen-driven initiatives, which are vital to any meaningful open government effort. For example, in Nigeria, the Bank is working with Edo State to launch of crime mapping platform that draws on crowdsourced data reported by citizens.Innovation Financing:A dynamic, sustainable Open Government Initiative requires public investment and PPP programs both to support development of innovative apps and services (including co-creation activities and challenges). The World Bank works with partner countries to design financing mechanisms needed to help develop an Innovation Economy. For example, the Bank is working with Ghana on a PPP for eTax services. In Sri Lanka, the Bank supported the creation of a Partnership Assistance Program to fund innovative services to under-served communities.Technology:Implementing open government on a whole-of-government basis requires enterprise architecture/ SOA, common open standards and interoperability frameworks, apps and adequate infrastructure to ensure connectivity and cyber security. One pioneering example of The World Bank's work in this area is its assistance to Moldova to introduce cloud computing for government using an innovative PPP model.
