During his talk at D1Conf, Fabian spoke about how the blockchain technology offers the potential to establish cost-efficient and tamper-proof decentralized social security systems. To highlight the current challenges of such systems, Asure has implemented the German statutory pension system on the Ethereum blockchain. Fabian presented the results and experiences they had developed within the scope of this project focusing on the things current the decentralized insurance and decentralized social security ecosystem lacks. He also provided an outlook on how the prototype would eventually scale for millions of people. These slides are courtesy of Fabian Raetz, AsureNetwork

The document calls for a "cyber moonshot" - a concerted national effort - to address the growing threats posed by cybersecurity issues. It proposes that such an effort require leadership, specific calls to action, and sustained investment. It suggests that incentives must be put in place to encourage securing data rather than penalties alone, and that data sharing should be viewed as a common good rather than a source of financial gain. The effort would aim to organize and direct national energies and skills towards achieving the hard goal of improving cybersecurity, similar to the spirit of President Kennedy's moonshot initiative. It asks what the single most important thing is that could be done now to ignite this national cyber moonshot effort.

NetworkCollaborators

The document discusses the challenges of cybersecurity in a world of digital business and relentless change. It notes that data has become currency, but that information overload, skills gaps, and evolving threats pose challenges. It asks how organizations can change the equation to more effectively protect themselves through approaches like controlling network access, quickly finding and containing problems, simplifying network segmentation, and stopping threats at the edge. The document advocates the Cisco security architecture and threat intelligence approach to enable seeing threats once and protecting everywhere across endpoints, cloud, and networks. It provides examples of challenges like WannaCry and the transition to multi-cloud environments.

The technology is finding its way into multiple use cases but we are yet to see full adoption and real-world business implementation in the Healthcare industry. In this webinar we will explore the main challenges and considerations for the implementation of Blockchain technology in Healthcare use cases. This is the third webinar in our Blockchain Education series.

Blockchain 4 Good / Smart Cities

Maz Cohen

This document discusses how blockchain technology can be used to create more open and inclusive societies, specifically in urban areas. It provides examples of blockchain projects aimed at improving areas like community energy platforms, tourism management, alternative sharing economies, fostering innovation and inclusion, ensuring data resilience and security, and increasing access to economic opportunities. The document also discusses what makes blockchain projects successful and sustainable, such as having a global, decentralized, inclusive approach that empowers and complements the ecosystem rather than competes within it. The overall goal is to improve quality of life, well-being, and happiness through collaborative blockchain solutions.

Privacy, Transparency and Trust in a Digital World

betterplace lab

Data privacy in the social sector – Who cares? What about? Data has become ubiquitous. The world is rapidly digitising, and in our professional and private lives, more and more of our activities leave behind a trail of data. For the social sector this means great opportunities – in the 2013 Trendreport we looked at the uses of "Big Data for Good". But the risks of data mining are also coming into sharper focus, not least since the Wikileaks revelations in 2013. It's clear that in the next few years, those working in the social sector all over the world will have to give a lot of thought to issues of data privacy and transparency. What's less clear is what they think about these issues today. Does the need to protect beneficiaries' data even occur to an NGO in Brazil? How does a German foundation understand "transparency", and how does this differ from a Chinese foundation? Do Indonesian activists worry more about government surveillance or corporate data mining? This 40-page report, produced by the betterplace lab and enabled by Mozilla, is based on research conducted during Lab Around the World in China, Brazil, India, Indonesia and Germany. There we conducted interviews with people working in the social sector about their attitudes and behaviour around matters of data privacy, transparency and trust.

Rethinking the intelligence cycle using social media

August Jackson

Social media inside and outside the enterprise changes every stage of the traditional intelligence cycle. Social media moves more quickly than traditional media, gives us a two-way intimacy with sources and stakeholders and upends long-standing assumptions about secrecy. Technology and platforms change quickly, and CI professionals must develop an ability to experiment and adapt to these changes.

How to build a vibrant Knowledge Network from scratch.

AquaSPE AG

The document discusses how Trudi Schifter built a knowledge network in the water industry from scratch. Some key points: - She started with a vision of bringing together professionals globally to help solve crises in critical sectors like water. - Choosing to focus first on water, as it faces major supply and demand issues and is important to life and the economy. - An open, cloud-based platform was developed to enable contextual knowledge sharing across organizations. Rapid prototyping and an early success helped prove the model. - Volunteer experts now engage daily to build the community, using a model like Wikipedia's of constant contributions. The network now helps professionals better address water issues.

Blockchain is a mathematically-based trust machine that enhances collaboration among untrusted nodes through consensus. It consists of three layers: the ledger, tokens for digital assets, and an incentive system. Blockchain can be centralized, decentralized, or distributed. It has progressed from Bitcoin (Blockchain 1.0) to include more applications (Blockchain 2.0) and aims to enable large-scale autonomous organizations (Blockchain 3.0). Blockchain technology has many potential uses but may not be necessary for all projects. While technology brings changes, governments can help care for people and privacy must be protected.

The Future of Health insurance in a digital World - The Digital Insurer

The Digital Insurer

Hugh Terry presented on the future of healthcare insurance in a digital world. He outlined 3 key messages: 1) Thinking long term is strategically important, 2) Convergence of health and technology will drive major advances in healthcare, and 3) The future is bright for health insurers but business as usual will not be competitive. By 2035, technology is expected to have solved issues like healthcare labor shortages through innovations like home testing, virtual consultations, and AI assistance. The empowered consumer will directly access most health advice through mobile devices. Longevity will continue increasing demand, but costs must be controlled to ensure universal access. Health insurers will focus on risk prevention and operational excellence through distributed ledgers, AI, and

DEPOT: A decentralized autonomous pension

Paul Mizel

Pension systems play a crucial role in the economic and political development of countries and help to maintain purchasing power for decades. Nevertheless, many people do not have access to good pension systems. That’s why we propose the development of a blockchain-based, decentralized and globally available pay-as-you-go pension system. We show how redistribution of contributions towards pension payments works and how voluntary participation in the pension system is incentivized through transparent, fair and unchangeable processes. Creating a premium for the last generation of the pay-as-you-go system ensures that all participants receive a pension and, in addition, creates an incentive to participate in the pension system.
