Why Open Source?
 Open source is becoming the backbone for driving
digital innovation.
 Open-source software is used within mission-
critical IT workloads by over 95% of the IT
organizations worldwide, whether they are aware
of it or not.
 To foster open innovation and to exploit new ideas
at a lower cost.
 Vibrancy and helpfulness of community support
and documentation in the community forms.
 To prevent vendor lock-in.
 No single entity has exclusive control over an open-
source project.
 Use best practices for development.

New Hardware Architecture … RISC-V
Source: RISC-V Foundation, SiPEED, SiFive, YouTube
 Open source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA).
 Start at University of California, Berkeley in
2010 and contributors all around the world.
 Permissive open source license.
 Open specification make it easier for
developers.
 Boards for RISC-V available since 2018 (SiFive,
SiPEED, LowRISC).
 RISC-V came in 32bits (RV32) and 64bits
(RV64) version.
 Designed for general purpose computing and
also for the Internet of Things (IoT).
 Some boards came with AI processors.

14
Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC)
Source: NIST - Post-Quantum Cryptography
 If large-scale quantum computers are ever built, they will be able to break many of
the public-key cryptosystems currently in use.
 This would seriously compromise the confidentiality and integrity of digital
communications on the Internet and elsewhere.
 Post-quantum cryptography (sometimes referred to as quantum-proof, quantum-
safe or quantum-resistant) refers to cryptographic algorithms (usually public-key
algorithms) that are thought to be secure against an attack by a quantum
computer.
 Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization is a project start on 2016 by NIST to
standardize post-quantum cryptography.
 Currently on Round 2 Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization, there 17
algorithms for Public-key Encryption and Key-establishment Algorithms, and 9
algorithms for Digital Signature Algorithms.
• How long does encryption need to
be secure (x years)
• How long to re-tool existing
infrastructure with quantum safe
solution (y years)
• How long until large-scale quantum
computer is built (z years)

{ Two, Multi}-Factor Authentication
Source: SoloKeys, NitroKeys, Google OpenSK, FreeOTP, PrivacyIDEA
 Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is an authentication
method in which a computer user is granted access
only after successfully presenting two or more pieces
of evidence (or factors) to an authentication
mechanism.
 Two-factor authentication (also known as 2FA) is a
type, or subset, of multi-factor authentication. It is a
method of confirming users' claimed identities by
using a combination of two different factors:
 (1) something they know,
 (2) something they have, or
 (3) something they are.

Open Source 2FA Security Key – Google OpenSK
Source: Google OpenSK
 Google launched OpenSK on Jan 30, 2020 — an open-source
project that lets developers build their own 2FA security keys.
 OpenSK supports both the FIDO U2F and FIDO2 standards.
 OpenSK is written in Rust and runs on TockOS for better
isolation and cleaner OS abstractions.
 Rust has strong memory safety which can help protect against
logical attacks, whilst TockOS offers a sandboxed architecture
for better isolation of the security key applet, drivers, and
kernel.
 With this early release, developers will be able to flash OpenSK
on a Nordic chip dongle.
 The Nordic chip dongle supports all of the major features of
FIDO2, such as NFC, Bluetooth Low Energy, USB, and a
dedicated hardware crypto core.
 Current firmware implementation is based on the published
CTAP2.0 specifications of FIDO standards.
 Current OpenSK supported cryptography algorithms: ECDSA,
ECC secp256r1, HMAC-SHA256 and AES256.
 GitHub repo: https://github.com/google/OpenSK

19
Decentralized Web
Source: Solid (MIT), Inrupt
 The decentralized web, also called web 3.0 is
a vision of the next generation internet as a
peer to peer network built around blockchain
technology, where users own their own data,
data is portable, computing and storage
resources are provided by end-users within
distributed networks, apps run locally on end-
user devices and platforms are decentralized
and autonomous.
 Tim Berners-Lee, Father of the World Wide
Web, working on a project called Solid, an
open-source project built on the existing web
meant to give people control over their own
data.
 Using Solid, users can keep their data
wherever they choose, rather than being
forced to store it on centralized servers.

20
InterPlanetary File System (IPFS)
Source: IPFS, IADIS
 IPFS is a peer-to-peer network for storing and
accessing files, websites, applications, and
data in a distributed file system.
 Content is accessible through peers that
might relay information or store it (or do
both), and those peers can be located
anywhere in the world.
 The file, and all of the blocks within it, is
given a unique fingerprint called a
cryptographic hash.
 Some blockchain/DLT used IPFS for storing
large files/documents such as MRI images.

Self Sovereign Identity (SSI)

 Solving the identity silo problem
begins with a digital identity that
you literally own, not just control
— a “self-sovereign” identity.
