'''ABSTRACT:''' As India moves towards large scale e-Governance adoption, a soft infrastructure for Government service delivery is needed to ensure efficiency and accountability across multiple systems. A national ID system is crucial to improve the efficiency and transparency of various e-Governance initiatives. The UID (Unique Identity) project of India has the vision of empowering every resident of India with a unique identity and providing a digital platform to authenticate anytime anywhere. Using biometrics, it provides an instant, electronic, non-repudiable proof of identity. This system is built on a sound strategy and a strong technology backbone and has evolved into a vital digital infrastructure. This lecture encompasses discussion on Large Scale Identity Management Systems with a detailed case study of India’s UID Project.

  • TITLE:  Privacy for mobile apps: Technical, regulatory and human challenges
    SPEAKER:  Nurul Momen  (Karlstad University)
    ABSTRACT: What is the most intimate device that you possess? If the answer is your mobile phone, you'd probably be interested in finding out how apps behave. In one end, we have a powerful device capable of collecting, monitoring, processing, transmitting data and in other end, this device is connected to hundreds of services through apps. Undeniably, users are being subjected to privacy exploitation due to the obvious reason - surveillance capitalism. We intend to turn the table around by simply asking - how do the apps behave?
