Identity Malta

Easier access to eGovernment services – Malta simplifies eID card use with cryptovision middleware

Abstract
The administration of the Maltese identity management system is one of the key responsibilities of the Identity Malta Agency on behalf of the Maltese government. As smart e-ID cards and machine-readable travel documents have grown in popularity in recent years, Identity Malta Agency, in collaboration with its Trust service provider and Cryptovision, introduced the new smart e-ID card in 2020. The Maltese eID system has also been permitted to connect to the EIDAS node.

Speaker Bio
My name is Stephen Mifsud, and I’ve been an ICT Project Coordinator with Identity Malta Agency for the past three and a half years. Having twenty-six years of technical experience in Electrical and Electronics and as an IT software developer, I was significantly involved in the implementation and coordination of the newest ePassport and eID card documents and systems. Alongside Identity Malta Agency’s Trust service provider I was involved in the specifications and upgrading of the Biometrics capturing workstations within Identity Malta Agency offices, all Maltese Embassies in different countries, and local border controls.

Trust into the Wild – Solutions for complex digital ecosystems

Abstract
IT and IoT managers know for a long time that the less you can control your machines or devices and their environments, the more you need secure and well-managed digital identities. With the exponential growth of IoT in all industries and our every day’s life, establishing end-to-end trusted environments is crucial to cope with today’s cybersecurity threats.

The safe and effective market adoption of IoT based services in complex and heterogeneous ecosystems requires security, global interoperability, and strong governance. Let’s see why the public key infrastructure and digital identities became the keystone of digital trust.”

Speaker Bio
Axel Sandot is Product & Business Manager in charge of security and digital identities of Internet of Things (IoT) and Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS, V2X). Member of the Atos Expert Community and lead of its IoT standardization taskforce, he performs his duty inside the Digital ID entity of the Group for four years.

Beforehand, Axel Sandot managed during more than 10 years the business development and technological projects of European companies in Latin America around identity, biometrics, digital trust, dematerialization, and deployment of main infrastructure projects.

PGP und S/MIME gemeinsam verarbeiten

Abstract
Ist S/MIME oder PGP die bessere Wahl für die E-Mail-Verschlüsselung? Diese Frage wird schon seit über zwei Jahrzehnten gestellt, ohne dass jemals eine allgemein akzeptierte Antwort gefunden worden wäre. Beide Formate haben ihre Vor-und Nachteile, und vor allem haben sie ihre Anhänger, die sich oft ideologisch aufgeladene Diskussionen liefern. Es bleibt also nichts anderes übrig: Man muss dem Anwender einen Client zur Verfügung stellen, der sowohl S/MIME auch PGP unterstützt. Der Autor dieses Beitrags war an der Entwicklung einer solchen Software beteiligt und berichtet über seine Erfahrungen. Als besondere Herausforderung erwies sich – wie häufig im Bereich der E-Mail-Verschlüsselung – die Benutzerfreundlichkeit.

Speaker Bio
Matthias Edelhoff joined cryptovision after his PhD Studies in High Energy Physics at the Large Hadron Collider. As a Developer he worked on middelware and email security products, before he took over Program Management for email security. In that capacity he spearheaded the development of the current email solution “GreenShield”. He was then promoted to Software Architect and is now contributing to multiple products and projects.

E-Mail-Sicherheit mit/ohne VS-NfD

Abstract
Dieser Vortrag berichtet von einem Projekt im Behördenumfeld, das die Einführung von E-Mail-Verschlüsselung und E-Mail-Signaturen für 2.500 Anwender zum Inhalt hatte. In einem Teil der betroffenen IT-Umgebung war die Beachtung der Verschlusssachenanweisung notwendig, im verbleibenden Bereich war dies nicht der Fall. Neben geeigneten Clients für die Nutzer musste auch die notwendige Infrastruktur zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Trotz der heterogenen Anforderungen sollte nur eine Infrastruktur betrieben werden, und es sollte für die Anwender jeweils nur eine Benutzeroberfläche zum Verschlüsseln und Signieren geben.

Speaker Bio
Martin Peeckhaus has joined cryptovision in 2015, when he started as a representative in the Business Administration department. Due to his enthusiasm for information technology and especially cryptography, he decided to study computer science. Since his B.Sc. studies in Computer Science Martin is working as a Systems Engineer with focus on email and file security.

Security that users love – is that possible?

Abstract
For software to be secure in practice, users need to be willing and able to appropriately use security features. Therefore, actively improving in the usability of security features and products is a decisive step towards more security. We investigated usable security in development processes of more than 25 business contexts around the world. Within this session we will share our experiences as well as discuss structural challenges, common pitfalls, and possible mitigations.

#cryptoleaks: Operation RUBICON

Abstract
In February 2020, the German television station ZDF revealed that world’s the largest manufacturer of cryptographic equipment, the Swiss company Crypto AG, had been owned since 1970 by the German intelligence service BND and their American counterpart CIA. For nearly 50 years, this covert operation, known by the name RUBICON, gave the two countries full access to the diplomatic traffic of more than 100 countries, by installing backdoors in the equipment. In this 30 minute talk, Crypto Museum will guide you through the most important events of this secret operation, and will explain why the BND left the operation in 1994.

Keynote: Delivering software that is secure & usable

Abstract
Research over the past two decade has shown that many people bypass security that requires too much time and effort, and those who try end up making mistakes. If we want security to be effective, it has to be usable. Software developers are supposed to take care of quality requirements such as usability, but also have to deliver functionality on time and budget. Our research shows many feel their companies are not providing enough information, training and expert support to help them make good choices.

How to become a cyber criminal

Abstract
Times have become hard for cyber criminals since Atos and cryptovision joined forces. Nevertheless, there are still numerous ways to make money with illegal IT stunts and to beat police investigators who are trying to put a stop to your activities. Among the methods you should know are password cracking, pacemaker manipulation, stealing digital art and protecting cheating tools from malware. It will be shown that anonymous forum postings, smart bulbs, and photographs of Prince William are more relevant for a cyber criminal than you think. And then, this session provides useful hints, such as “if you commit a murder, better switch off your Alexa and remove the victim’s wristband.”
