There are four constraints for internet of things to succeed: devices should have connectivity even on a long range, connectivity should be free and secure, devices consume very little power and the form factor is reduced to the size of the battery. LoRa enables this: long range, low power communication over free-to-use frequencies around the world. In this talk, I will introduce the open standard LoRaWAN: the wide area network protocol stack built on top of LoRa, maintained by telecom operators, chipmakers and IoT industry leaders.
With a $ 1,200 gateway in our hands, we imagined covering the city of Amsterdam with only ten gateways. Four weeks later, we crowd sourced the gateways and launched the first open LoRa covered city network in the world. The open source, open hardware initiative, The Things Network, spread like wildfire around the world. After a very successful Kickstarter campaign to enable producing affordable gateways, development kits and nodes, we started building the network with the community. LoRaWAN is at the core of this network, and in this talk I'll explain its role in our mission to build an open, decentralized and crowd sourced internet of things data network with global coverage.
One year later… Revisiting the GDPR and what it means for the cloudOVHcloud
In 2018, the GDPR transformed the way we think about customer data. Today, Grégory Gitsels and Alban Schmutz look at how these regulations have affected OVHcloud, and helped usher in the next development in how we transfer, store and protect our customers’ data, while maintaining full transparency and reversability.

Enabling the Cloud for the Masses
Governments and Enterprises are entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring that key services reach citizens and consumers in the best possible means. With the launch of the Cloud, within the tech sector Cloud service offerings are now a reality and providers are jumping on the Cloud on an everyday basis. The next logical step is for Public sector organizations to be able to offer Cloud based services to citizen that offer the convenience of “pay for what you use” billing and in compliment offer load or time based billing models for providers. Enabling these services, that include collaboration, Big data analytics and communication, that connect to the infrastructure of providers to the delivery point of consumers is now a reality.

Nick Wallace, Government Analyst, Public Sector Ovum
Momentum for the adoption of cloud services continues to grow in the public sector as services mature and agencies experience in buying and using cloud services grows. As agencies steadily incorporate various cloud components into their environment, it is clear that public sector organisations are starting to realise the benefits of cloud. In fact if one where creating a “greenfield” service, “in the cloud” would be the default approach. However the reality is that most institutions are not in this position. Most have to manage a legacy environment that comprises aging technology, duplicate, inefficient and inconsistent business processes. Developing and implementing a staged migration to cloud will be pivotal when determining whether the “as-a-service” promise facilitates innovation or undermines organisational integrity

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
3. Government Security Classifications
• Comes into force on 02/04/14
• Classifications: OFFICIAL, SECRET and TOP SECRET
• There is no direct mapping between Security Classifications and BILs
• BIL should still be used as part of the information risk assessment when selecting G-Cloud services
• New G-Cloud service categories:
•
Unassured Clouds: Formerly IL0
•
Assured Public Cloud: Formerly IL2
•
Formally Accredited Public Cloud or Private Cloud: Formerly IL3
• As a rule of thumb:
•
Unassured Clouds: For non-sensitive OFFICIAL information suitable for the public domain
•
Assured Public Cloud: Suitable for general OFFICIAL information that is not particularly sensitive
•
Formally Accredited Public Cloud or Private Cloud: Most OFFICIAL information and aggregated information that‟s not
particularly sensitive in isolation
• Will Assured Public Clouds require PGA? Just ISO 27001 plus additional controls?

Government Security Classifications April 2014, Version 1.0, Cabinet Office, October 2013
G-Cloud Information Assurance Requirements and Guidance, HMG, May 2012
4. PSN Connectivity
• GCF connectivity is retired on 31/03/14
• GCF users must have obtained PSN connectivity, achieved compliance and transitioned
by this date
• IL3 accredited PSN bearer networks will start to appear rather than using CAPS
accredited devices over IL2 bearer networks
• 3 new PSN frameworks due with
•
More SMEs (dozens, not hundreds)
•
Three ordering mechanisms (direct award, short competition, full-fat competitions)
•
4-5 year contract length
•
„Public Sector Telecoms‟ framework (which includes cloud services) due to go live in July
• 2014-16 growth in „Wider Public Sector‟ including local government and health services:
•
PSN Spend to mid-2014: Central Government £2.2Bn, Wider Public Sector: £0.8Bn
•
PSN Spend 2014-2016: Central Government £0.6Bn, Wider Public Sector: £1.6Bn

Next-generation PSN Frameworks, Cabinet Office, November 2013
5. Hybrid Cloud
• Low hanging fruit of point cloud solutions will soon be harvested
• More sophisticated solutions will be needed to support:
• On premise and off premise
• Legacy systems and cloud services
• Public and private cloud
• Multi-impact level information estates
• Integrating to multi-impact level systems
• Impact level hybrid clouds are needed
• Supports the business benefit prioritized cloud journey and optimises
information estates
6. Application Development
• The „Public Cloud First‟ policy, drives for better citizen experience/engagement
and more sophisticated solutions require digital services, Enterprise Applications
Integration, SaaS and custom web, enterprise mobile applications
• Demand from third-party application developers for IaaS, PaaS, EPaaS and
PSN support on IL2 and IL3 PGA‟d services
• Full software lifecycle support is needed: Spin-up/tear-down of
development, test, staging and production environments
• Needs to align to HMG‟s Agile objectives by supporting continuous integration
and continuous release
• Application developers need help with accrediting their applications on already
PGA‟d services
7. In Summary
• Government Security Classifications
• PSN Connectivity
• Hybrid Clouds
• Application Development
