[Cyber Security reading group] Next events

Sun Jul 1 09:13:25 BST 2018

I have now written up the talk as a blog post with detailed reasons and illustrations,
that should be readable without having attended the talk and that I hope
requires very little background in cybersecurity to read. So it explains the problem
and the answer.  I have also set up an example company and show the way the
proof procedure works with data that is already served by company house.

Thanks Andrea,

   I have changed the angle a little and will try to look at this from the perspective
of a way to address the 6x increase in https based phishing reported by
Anti Phishing Working Group in the year 2016-2017, as I think this makes it
of direct relevance to the current cyber security discussion (I may be wrong).

See my Tweet to Wendy Hall and Ben Laurie

I hope that you'll all be able to test this idea out enough in questions so that
the idea survives, I'll be able to write a very impactful blog post on the
cybsecsoton page.

Henry
PS. There should be a PhD by blog option :-)

Dear all,
please find below the info on Henry’s talk

Title: The (World Wide) Web of Trust
Abstract: The Web of Trust concept has mostly been associated with PGP and has not succeeded: the criteria of success being that it should be used by everyone every day.
I will describe why the PGP WoT failed, and how one can build an
institutional web of trust based on W3C standards anchored in a web of nations,
in a way that this can be embedded into browsers chrome, whilst respecting the
Sovereignty of nations so as to get their full support.

When: Monday 25th June, 3:30 PM
Where: Demo Room R4240 B59

Have a nice week-end

Cheers,
Andrea
