Participatory webinar on “Cybersecurity and its impact on EU-US ICT collaboration”.
by Gordon Lennox 24 Apr '17

24 Apr '17

"The PICASSO project is organizing a participatory webinar on “Cybersecurity and its impact on EU-US ICT collaboration”. The aim of this webinar is to discuss and refine policy recommendations designed to improve EU-US ICT-oriented collaborations – specifically in three technological domains: 5G networks; Big Data; and the Internet of Things/Cyber-physical systems (IoT/CPS). Focus is set on the implications of technological developments for cybersecurity policy, taking into account the different approaches towards cybersecurity being taken in the USA and in Europe, the technical and socio-economic backgrounds and new developments likely to affect the security and vulnerability of ICT systems. The participatory and interactive webinar will validate initial conclusions based on a policy briefing on Cybersecurity and its impact on EU/US ICT Policy collaborationprepared by the PICASSO ICT Policy Expert Group.” See: http://www.picasso-project.eu/newsevents/project-events/webinar-cybersecuri…

Next Generation Internet Initiative - consultation
by Gordon Lennox 20 Apr '17

20 Apr '17

From Politico this morning: COMMISSION LAUNCHES MEGA SET OF INTERNET CONSULTATIONS: In an unusual move, the Commission is launching nearly a dozen consultations on the internet, with a dozen media partners. The surveys will be cover the impact of the digital world on jobs, health, government, and democracy, on privacy and security, artificial intelligence, net neutrality, and big data. The consultations are conducted for the Commission by REIsearch and in partnership with El País, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, The Guardian, Il Sole 24 Ore, La Libre Belgique, Gazeta Wyborcza, Luxemburger Wort, Público, The Lancet, Cell, and Der Standard. That’s innovative and inclusive at one level: millions more will now be prompted to participate. One the other hand, there are 19 EU countries without a media partner, and the media partners range inconsistently from business newspapers to medical journals. “Science should be open and freed from its traditional ivory tower; to be discussed, submitted to critique and fed with new perspectives,” said Jean-Claude Juncker. Playbook readers can complete the first questionnaire here: https://reisearch.eu/initiatives/next-generation-internet/1/en And some EU tech policy "gossip”: COMMISSION — OETTINGER AND ANSIP, THE ODD COUPLE: Questions remain about who is in charge of EU tech policy, more than three months after Oettinger officially gave up his job as digital commissioner, Joanna Plucinska reports. Commissioner Oettinger gets lobbyist attention, but as Vice President Ansip’s former colleagues and staff in Estonia have noted to Playbook: He didn’t survive 30 years in national and European politics without the patience and steel needed to achieve long-term objectives. http://www.politico.eu/article/digital-europe-andrus-ansip-and-gunther-oett…

Greetings, (Apologies for cross-posting) For all information security professionals in the lists, thank you for considering filling this survey. Many thanks in advance for your time! Best, Gaël UC Berkeley and Packet Clearing House are conducting a survey to better understand how information security professionals share information in their practice, and detail the pathways through which people become information security professionals. Through this research, we aim to grow the profession of information security by providing recommendations for information security education, as well as providing recommendations for information sharing policy in information security. As a token of appreciation for your participation in this survey, we will make an anonymous donation on your behalf to a non-profit working in the technical and policy areas of information security. Thank you for your attention and support. You can take the survey here: https://berkeley.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eM0V52bJUzStT8x

Request to contribute to AIOTI survey on IoT indentifiers
by Marco Hogewoning 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC is a member of the the Alliance for Internet of Things Innovation (AIOTI). Its standardisation group (WG3) has established a task force to look at identifiers for use in the Internet of Things (IoT). One of the task force's work items is to collect information about any existing identification systems and standards that could be considered for application in IoT and investigate identification needs and requirements from IoT implementers. They have created a short survey to gather this information and asked us to invite the RIPE community to contribute. As both the requirements and options available will probably vary significantly between different IoT products and services, we don't think it's feasible to provide the task force with a consolidated response, as compiling such an answer to some extent would duplicate the work of the task force. Instead, we encourage RIPE community members who have a stake in IoT or associated identification mechanisms or standards to respond to the survey on an individual basis. The survey is available here: https://goo.gl/forms/vT22nR1ZEh13lfzi1 You are kindly requested to respond before 7 April. Please also see the attached message from Juergen Helles, Chair of the task force. As a member of AIOTI, we will continue to monitor and contribute to the work of AIOTI WG3 and this task force. Regards Marco Hogewoning RIPE NCC - External Relations > > > The Alliance for Internet of Things Innovation AIOTI (www.aioti.org) was initiated by the European Commission in 2015, with the aim to strengthen the dialogue and interaction among Internet of Things (IoT) players in Europe, and to contribute to the creation of a dynamic European IoT ecosystem to speed up the take up of IoT. Further objectives of the Alliance are fostering experimentation, replication, and deployment of IoT and supporting convergence and interoperability of IoT standards; gathering evidence on market obstacles for IoT deployment; and mapping and bridging global, EU, and member states' IoT innovation activities. > > AIOTI Working Group 03 is a focus of European engagement and steering in the IoT standardization process: > - Maintain a view on the landscape of IoT standards-relevant activities being driven by Standard Developing Organizations, Consortia, Alliances and Open Source Software projects > - Provide a forum for analysis, discussion and alignment of strategic, cross-domain, technical themes and shared concerns across landscape activities > - Develop recommendations and guidelines addressing those concerns > - Engage the IoT community in disseminating and promoting the results and steering emerging standards > Note that AIOTI will not develop standards itself but interact with standardization development organizations and consortia in order to initiate standardization activities. > > Identification plays an important role for IoT. In addition to the identification of the Things identification of other entities will be needed. Various identification schemes already exist, are standardized and deployed. A thorough analysis of the identification needs and related standardization for IoT is therefore needed. The AIOTI WG03 IoT Identifier task force was setup specifically to > - Evaluate identification needs for IoT and related requirements > - Collect existing identification standards and ongoing standardization work and elaborate their applicability for IoT. > The results of these activities will be published in a public report on IoT Identifiers. > > The task force has setup a online survey in order to collect input for the above task. > > IoT Identifier Survey (https://goo.gl/forms/vT22nR1ZEh13lfzi1) > > We are asking RIPE Community to provide feedback to the survey until Friday April 7th 2017. > > Please also feel free to distribute this survey request to your members for their individual feedback to the survey. > > Please note, that the information that you provide will be anonymized, i.e. there will be no reference to your specific contribution to the survey in the public report.
