#Cybersecurity, #Protection, #Risk

13-05-2025 15:55 13-05-2025 17:10 Europe/Madrid Securing Digital Identities: The Power of Hybrid Authentication Current authentication systems rely on password management and third-party identity providers, some offering 2FA and biometric authentication. However, vulnerabilities persist, including single points of failure, data breaches, and replay attacks. Public-key cryptography systems are gaining popularity with decentralized ledgers and blockchains for digital identities and assets. They address centralization risks and third-party reliance but require users to manage private keys responsibly. Advancements like Ethereum’s ERC-4337 (Account Abstraction) now enable seamless integration of mainstream and decentralized authentication. These innovations support identity recovery and compatibility with protocols like OpenID Connect. i2CAT will showcase a hybrid authentication system combining traditional email/password authentication with account abstraction, public-key cryptography, and smart wallets, offering enhanced security and flexibility.

Image geolocation: from beginner to intermediate

Mathieu Gaucheler Maltego Senior Subject Matter Expert Speaker

#Artificial Intelligence, #Cybersecurity, #Standards and Regulations

13-05-2025 16:35 13-05-2025 17:50 Europe/Madrid Image geolocation: from beginner to intermediate The ability to know where a picture has been snapped is a classic part of OSINT investigations. With the raise of social media and the popularization of smartphones, it is becoming difficult for something noteworthy to happen without an image being produced and circulated. However, these images can also be wrongfully used or even generated by AI to spread disinformation. Geolocating a picture or a video is an important tool to debunk false claims or authenticate a certain version of an event. But the multitude of investigative possibilities a picture offers can feel daunting for a beginner: should we look for metadata? Pay attention to the mountain in the background? Focus on the length of the shadows and position of the sun? In this workshop, we will present different geolocation techniques: talk about their limits, their requirements and inform the attendees about how difficult they are to use. We will illustrate these methods with specific case studies Hacking Village 2

14-05-2025 12:10 14-05-2025 12:40 Europe/Madrid AI-Specific Cyber Risks: From Data Security to Faulty Conclusions Unless you've spent the last few years under a rock, you must know that the biggest buzzword in the security industry is "Artificial Intelligence." As with every new technology, AI brings both immensely promising benefits and an entirely new class of potential problems. In this presentation, we'll look at the risks this new technology can create for your organization. Imagine you've just hired a new intern who can't keep from chatting about everything he knows and who—when you need his help the most—has an annoying tendency to lie to you. Whatever will you do? Welcome to the wonderful new world of Artificial Intelligence. Cybersecurity Congress Room

14-05-2025 12:30 14-05-2025 13:00 Europe/Madrid Future Outlook. HPC and Quantum Computing High Performance Computing (HPC) provides powerful solvers for real-world calculations. In addition to the rapid evolution of its conventional hardware and software technologies, HPC is also evolving into powerful, hybrid architectures, integrating complementary quantum technologies. Quantum computers are thus becoming accelerators for supercomputers, whereby they can provide exponentially more powerful solutions for certain hard compute problems of great economical interest. Quantum computers also provide significant support to minimize the rapidly accelerating demand of data centre energy consumption, at orders of magnitude lower than current HPC and AI data centres. Quantum computing provides access to a new compute paradigm that will drive HPC into new solution territories, both more powerful and less power hungry. Side Events Room

14-05-2025 12:40 14-05-2025 13:10 Europe/Madrid Enabling Secure Data Collaboration through the use of Zero Knowledge Proofs to Verify an Information Attribute without Sharing or Exposing it A Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) is a cryptographic protocol that allows one party to prove the veractity of a piece of information to another party without either party learning anything about the information other than the fact that the information is true or not. The protocol is extremely useful where there is sensitivity to the information that needs to be verified such that it cannot be exposed or shared in any way, which could cause non-compliance with GDPR or other laws or regulations. We will discuss a particular implementation where the national electricity utility operator in Ireland allowed the implementation of a verification service for a person's name and address for relying parties in the financial services sector where no information is every disclosed other than the verification of the name and address. We will discuss how the project was conceived, implemented and delivered in order to ensure full compliance with GDPR and the commercial requirements of the utility that no customer data could ever leave the utility.

15-05-2025 10:00 15-05-2025 10:30 Europe/Madrid Adapting Real-Time Intelligence to Remote Conditions Using Edge and Cloud Floating cranes are used to mount offshore wind turbine parts around the world. This construction often takes place in rough weather conditions. A new generation of inline-balanced heave compensators allows for safe, uninterrupted operations in harsh, offshore environments. These intelligent systems keep loads geo-stationary by compensating for the movement of ships caused by wind and wave action. Traditional solutions require manual attention under harsh conditions. This work is labor intensive, error prone, and increases latency. The new, intelligent systems rely on extremely detailed diagnostic data, made available in real time from the cloud, to keep the loads balanced. This presentation will discuss how technologies such as cloud access, real-time databases, industrial hardware, and space-based connectivity empower such advances in safe, reliable offshore construction.

15-05-2025 15:00 15-05-2025 15:30 Europe/Madrid NIS2 Directive Implementation State of Play: National Transposition, Entities Readiness Level, and Sectoral Applications Despite the October 17, 2024 deadline, most EU member states have not yet transposed the NIS2 Directive into national law, prompting the European Commission to initiate infringement proceedings against 23 countries. We will take a look at the fragmented implementation which has created substantial operational challenges, particularly for organizations operating across borders. Member States have adopted varying approaches to entity classification, sector inclusion, and size-cap thresholds, while also implementing different incident reporting classification, compliance deadlines and referencing diverse international security frameworks. This will be followed by a closer examination of the main challenges and priorities facing organizations within the scope of the Directive, as well as their preparedness level.
