25 minsWOPLLI PresentationVikas Malhotra

Vikas gave this presentation on 5 core principles for next-generation cybersecurity:

  • Architecture Principles and the IEEE proposal made by WOPLLI on cybersecurity for next generation systems
  • WOPLLI (Work, Play, Learn, Live) is a new startup focused on trust in digital ecosystems ("Safe, Fair and Trusted")
  • Digital Trust Statistics (vide ToIP Whitepaper v2.0 - to be published)
  • "It is all about data (& infrastructure)!" - how it is used, who has access to it. Verification of infrastructures → Data/information access → Data/information availability in honey pots → Updates and resolution times of infrastructure (based on data)
  • 5 very high level principles - Human Centricity(the human should be the boundary of the control point of the data); Decentralization; Distribution; Heterogeneity; Self Healing
    • Question/discussion - what about Security and Privacy as principles of architecture
      •  Drummond - at the ToIP these are subsets of the Confidentiality by Design and Default (more on the document)
      • Vikas Malhotra(offline) Hypothesis is that an architecture with these principles in mind will solve for security & privacy. It will remove the need for thinking of security & privacy as separate design parameters.
  • (see slide deck for illustration of the conceptual layout of the proposed principles when viewed against a deployed architecture)
  • IEEE workgroup proposal - Cyber Security for Next Generation Systems
    • explore architecture based on the 5 principles
    • explore architecture and needs for specific technology areas (AI and Autonomous Systems; Web3.0 technologies and Quantum Computing)
    • Proposed Output - Consideration and guidance for Cyber Security for Next generation systems
  • ACTION: ALL TATF members to notify Vikas Malhotra if they want to participate in the planned IEEE workgroup on Cyber Security for Next Generation Systems
