Main Presentation: "Jumping the Identity S Curve: Achieving Privacy- Preserving Identity", by Dr. Tina P Srivastava
Abstract:
There has been a great deal of promising new companies, technologies, initiatives, working groups, and specifications for decentralized or cross-domain identity in recent years. However, the current state of digital identity is still very much stuck in a centralized model that relies on devices as the primary source of trust. This means that users have to store their identity data on their devices and use usernames and passwords to access different applications and services. While the security measure aims to reduce PII honey pots, it creates many challenges to achieving the goals of fast, secure and frictionless identity for everyone. Dr. Srivastava will discuss recent breakthroughs in applied cryptography and advancements in machine learning that are enabling alternative authentication technologies and approaches to traditional honeypot models. This has enterprises rethinking their approach to identity stores and what the future of authentication looks like in a world where consumer privacy is paramount.

Asia Oceania Webinar #1: MBSE in Automotive sector
Meeting Title: Driving radical innovation with MBSE in the automotive sector: a Continental example with IBM Engineering
Presenter Name: Marco Forlingieri & Enrico Seidel
Date: Saturday 10 December 2022
Time: 11:00 am IST / 1:30 pm ST / 4:30 pm ACT
Registration: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSddiQkPYr6JkjDw7nneBohmZj4XPCycOSvbtWzhjD6TauTX1Q/viewform
Abstract:
Hosted by the INCOSE India Chapter. The webinar introduces the topic of MBSE and its application to implement radical innovation within established engineering organizations. IBM in collaboration with Continental demonstrate how the automotive supplier can move from a decentralized to a centralized computer-based vehicle control architecture. The webinar describes in simple steps the workflow from automotive feature into advanced simulation of the architecture using the light control architecture example.
