The presenter discusses "passkeys", which are multi-device FIDO credentials that can be backed up and replicated across devices. Passkeys are designed to help scale adoption of passwordless FIDO authentication in the consumer space by providing a familiar password manager-like user experience. The presenter demos how passkeys could enable cross-device and cross-ecosystem FIDO authentication on mobile and other devices. Passkeys are also presented as a potential drop-in replacement for passwords with enhanced security characteristics, particularly for high-value enterprise and consumer use cases such as privileged access management.
Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) are widely use for cryptography key management in many areas such as PKI, card payment, trusted platform modules, etc. However they are rarely used in in-house software development.
This presentation will explain about why we need the key management and its fundamental, overview of HSM and how it take parts in key management, HSM selection criterias, and finally, an idea to make a web service wrapper easier to adopt by developers those lack of knowledge in cryptography programming.
This document discusses proposals for supporting the request and presentation of verifiable credentials in OpenID Connect. It presents three options for delivering verifiable credentials/presentations: 1) embedding the entire credential/presentation in a JWT claim in the ID token, 2) using aggregated or distributed claims to include the credential/presentation, or 3) using a separate "VP token" artifact containing the credential/presentation along with an ID token. The document analyzes the pros and cons of each approach and seeks feedback on the best option to pursue as well as next steps like discussing with the Connect working group and incorporating encryption.

HSM stands for Hardware Security Module, which is a tamper-resistant physical device used to securely generate, store, and manage cryptographic keys and perform cryptographic operations. Payment industries commonly use specialized HSMs to protect keys and data for payment card personalization, transaction authorization, and verification. While HSMs provide high security, they are also expensive, so some companies offer HSM services running software that simulates an HSM's functions. The Thales Simulator is an open source software library that emulates the cryptographic functions of Thales HSM devices. It can be downloaded, installed, and configured to connect to over a network port to test applications designed to integrate with real HSM devices.

AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix
Talk at the final event of Data Fusion Dynamics: A Collaborative UK-Saudi Initiative in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence funded by the British Council UK-Saudi Challenge Fund 2024, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2025

Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.
