Get yourself connected: Google Glass and the Internet of BlingBill Harpley
A talk given to Worthing Digital group on the rainy night of October 22cnd 2013.
It is an introductory level talk on wearable computing devices and technology. The aim is to raise awareness of this increasingly important topic.
It examines the history of wearable device technology and provides some case studies of current products (The Lume Collection, Pebble Smartwatch, Fitbit, Google Glass).
It then considers how these devices and technologies may be linked together into a coherent, ultimately participating in the "device cloud" that is known as the Internet of Things.
It speculates as to the the social and cultural impact of the mass adoption of wearable technology. It explores this through a scenario called the Internet of Bling.
A video of the presentation session will be made available on the Worthing Digital website in the near future.
This document discusses cyber privacy insurance and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It provides an overview of data breach costs by industry. GDPR fines can be up to 20 million Euros or 4% of annual global turnover for breaches. Under GDPR, breaches must be reported to regulators within 72 hours and affected individuals if there is a high risk. The document also summarizes common cyber insurance coverage types like crisis management, cyber extortion, data asset protection, and business interruption. It analyzes past insurance claims payouts and causes of loss. Websites for cyber insurance quotes and resources are also listed.
In this presentation, I will cover the the public's response to Google Glass as the first mass marketed wearable computer device. I will show the roller coaster of trends, volumes, technology, and reporting techniques of this data surrounding Google Glass. There is a plethora of market research data to mine due to the way Google has announced this product nearly two years before its availability. Because of this, we can critically review Google's Public Relations, Video Marketing, Exclusive Rollout, and other user adoption strategies.
Some findings like Natural Language Processing of comments, posts, and tweets along instances of paired keyword terms and similar technology comparisons will lend insight to the overall public reaction to Google Glass. I collected this information from both the general Internet (headlines and comments) as well as social media sites like: YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Google+. I will support this talk with graphs and visual data collected and crunched through API's and social media reporting tools.
The conclusions of my analysis should point to how ready the general public is for this new computing platform.

Cyber Security and the Impact on your BusinessLucy Denver
With cyber scams costing UK businesses an estimated £4.14bn* in lost data, reputational damage and online theft every year, Cyber Security is rapidly climbing the priority list of directors across the UK. This presentation will help you to:
- spot the most common cyber attacks, defend your business and protect your critical data if the worst does happen;
- understand the impact of GDPR on your business and how to protect yourself against expensive data losses.
The document discusses the need to develop a cyber security center. It notes that cyber crimes are increasing, with identity theft, computer sabotage, and credit card fraud among the most common. The document provides statistics showing high percentages of reported intrusions, financial losses from breaches, and organizations detecting security breaches. It outlines target audiences for cyber security including individual users, devices, and different types of networks. The document also discusses national cyber security strategy and regional needs, mentioning how a cyber security center could provide forensic training, litigation support, and help financial institutions and healthcare organizations with security requirements.
Cyber attacks have been hitting the headlines for years; but in spite of the risks, the reputational damage and the rising cost of fines, there is still an endless stream of businesses being exposed for security failings.
The scale of the problem is vast: Accenture’s recent 2016 Global Security Report highlighted “an astounding level of breaches” with the organisations surveyed facing more than 80 targeted attacks every year, of which a third were successful. Much has been made of the evolving threat landscape and increasing sophistication of attacks. But whilst there is evidence to support the growing complexity of the challenge, all too often the analysis of these high-profile attacks determines basic, foundational security principles were ignored.
Some commentators argue that the persistence of failings is a direct reflection of organisational priorities, and that while businesses may talk a good game, security is not yet given the attention that it requires at board level. This leaves CISOs and IT leaders fighting a losing battle to secure adequate attention and investment for an area of the business which does not generate revenue.
This conference will look at raising security standards across the business, exploring some of the most persistent problems from IT infrastructure to staff engagement. Amidst a backdrop of perpetual media hysteria, turbulent markets and looming regulatory change, it can prove difficult to establish a coherent picture of the threat, never mind what action to take. The conference will help contextualise the challenging landscape and discuss how to deliver meaningful improvements and end to end organisational resilience.
Cyber Attacks aren't going away - including Cyber Security in your risk strategyJames Mulhern
There's a data explosion underway and it's a lucrative market for cyber criminals. Charities with their complex contexts and valuable data are an obvious target and so it's essential Cyber threats are addressed in Charities' risk strategies.
This presentation set outs the current situation, what the potential consequences are and who could be impacted before explaining what can be done about it and how to approach the challenge.

How to protect your clients and your law firm from money transfer scamsGabor Szathmari
This document outlines how cybercriminals target legal practices and describes money transfer scams. It discusses how payment redirection fraud works in two phases by collecting passwords through phishing or data breaches, then using those credentials to change payment instructions. The document provides five steps to protect legal practices: implementing email spoofing protections, using two-factor authentication, better antivirus software, browser extensions, and enterprise security solutions. It concludes by suggesting resources for legal practices to get help, such as the Law Council of Australia and Lawcover.
It's a Who, What, Where and Why behind cyber risk in today's modern era - how data breaches happen, why they happen, and what you can do to address them.
Paul C Dwyer gave a presentation on cybersecurity risks. He discussed the growing threat of cybercrime and how criminal groups are increasingly professionalizing. He outlined common cyberattack techniques like advanced persistent threats. Dwyer recommended that organizations prepare for these strategic challenges by improving cyber resilience, governance, and incident response capabilities. Organizations also need to understand their legal responsibilities and that boards will be held accountable for cybersecurity failures.
This document provides information about an upcoming HDI Capital Area event. It includes details about the event such as date, location, speakers, agenda, and registration information. It also lists the chapter officers and provides announcements about upcoming HDI events, training opportunities, and programs. The main presentation will be on a simple approach to security and how to assess security risks and implement basic protections.
Digital trust and cyber challenge now extends beyond the Enterprise Mourad Khalil
The document discusses key findings from PwC's 2015 Global State of Information Security Survey. Some of the main points from the survey include that 61% of customers would stop using a company's products after a security breach, reported security incidents rose 48% globally, and losses from cyber incidents increased 34% on average. The document also notes that employees were the most common source of security incidents, and that board oversight of security risks is often lacking. It advocates that organizations view security through the lens of digital trust in order to build customer confidence and take advantage of opportunities in the digital world.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
