Luttons contre les cyber-risques | Solange Ghernaouti | TEDxSion


thanks to you and actually there is more than one
link that we could find with the
presentation to the previous ones in particular
that of duality in the internet
this double face flocks and that there
had two key reading on this
same music that for some is
promising and wonderful and
to endow cacophony with
internet is a bit the same and
we will be interested in this decision
awareness that we have to take a
risk or not by going on the internet
when we connect to the internet we
carries out activities on the internet
so to understand this taking of
risk you have to understand the world in
which we live in and this ecosystem
digital that we built that
we continue to build by giving
using the services
so what does this hyper mean
connectivity and I also think like
you had previously done sir
it is to remember this evolution
history in which we are all
heirs of history and a test
history of computing we will do
very short but I will remember several
dates
the first is who we are perhaps
more familiar is the second war
world where we have seen the emergence of
computing with a need for
computer computation computation for
break codes and a half and that’s thanks
to alan turing who gave birth to this
modern computing and one is in a
war context that says war is
defense of the territories of complete
territories preservation of values ​​the
second historical reference I
would like to do is that of the internet
that this wonderful tool of
communication that we know who
he too is born in a context
of War Department of Defense
American where we spoke was the time
of the cold war and the third
technological reference that we
also use is who and who is the
result of this evolution but this spirit
of conquest and mastery
it’s the gps that we use in the
everyday life and who is a
tool for making war that was
designed to win wars to be
in the performance of the war then
why these three references is good
to understand also advocated in this
spirit of conquest of territories and
could have made reference to eyelashes
conquest of mayors in the 15th to the 9th
century and the complete pathways
maritime is the opening towards
new territories this is the
colonization of territories to capture
most conquering values
new opportunities and I believe
that with the digital we are in this
context there in this same philosophy
of conquest of digital territories
and what are our digital territories
are our digital heritage these are
Datas
so we are in this spirit of conquest
of preservation war then I believe
we are all aware that we
live an economic crisis that is there
to last and I ‘m not sure that the
those born in the 21st century do not
know something else than a context of
exacerbated economic war
so we are in this environment
of the connection and the connection that
becomes more and more permanent
why since we understood in the 21st
century that society value
worth who had money
was not gold but it was
gold information so all this
information became the capital the
nerve of war if you want and so
there we have seen the development of services and
a digital economy is based on
the exploitation of data on on the
data consumption and the idea is
to be able to continuously capture
data and be able to process them and
encourage people to be connected in
permanence then we are becoming
more connected you probably do it
experience in your life
professional or your private life
I want to say even the cows are
connected are to the happy I am
not sure and the wild animals were
the first to be connected and
maybe you know it’s the
whales that have been connected or chip
and the first to be able to precisely
to follow them and then
offer a little bit maybe an idea of
preservation of the species
so we see we have this solicitation
permanent to be more and more
connected to feed this economy
of a digital economy ultra
liberalism and exploitation of
so consumption data
operating then in this hyper
connectivity what does it take
remember that we have spoken very
quickly and certainly from this
evolution of computer techniques
we could be interested much more
also on the interfaces the tools of
communication between man and
machine I want to say the human and
the machine and more is complicated for
the machine then it’s simple for for
the human and we see this simplification
interfacing access which is so coconut
half-time to the miniaturization of
component is the computer component
has become so tiny speaks again
of intelligent dust from
nanotechnology and this ability
embedded to have powers
autumn autonomy in terms
of energy allows the invisibility of
communications which we have a thread to
electronic tab that is invisible
since we communicate with wireless
and this evolution of wireless has been
also favored by an evolution of
regulations related to the use of
the space to communicate so we saw
get drawn since managed the second
world war the establishment of a
tea infrastructure that
telecommunications is presented but of
more and more invisible you have to know that
the first transatlantic cables that
have served for the telephony of a
telegraphist 1858 so that’s not all at
recent but since this war
cold since the conquest of space and
we walked on the line it was in 1969
we also saw this conquest of space
with satellites of
telecommunications which allowed
civilians use the transmission
information that’s why we saw
still this first man on the moon
this month of July 69 then this
infrastructure it is there there are some
services that are possible because of
components of the access terminals of the
contents we were very irritated
multimedia entertainment and
ability to process this information
we have seen the miniaturization of
components with sensors that
become more and more tiny my
dog is chipped he has a flea rfid in
the neck I imagine that me in ten years
I ‘ll have one too, since we’ll find
its same practices
so my phone is actually a
phone but my car is a
phone in which I can sit
kwassa wheeled phone a car
we’ve seen this internet appear
objects because of this concomitance and
then this star alignment will be in
terms of technology mastery of
component manufacturing and then this
informational energy that will us
feed in this energy
informational we can see that we have
interests
economica can capture them
to master in the business view
take power in this area of
telecommunications and computerization that
companies whose names are even
become dictionary words that’s
the case of google and this is the case of
the ubs and risation of the society we speak
although the authorization b what that means
say that all that we
did before we did it but from a
different way
via implementation platforms
relationship of exchange platforms
so this communication we want
extensive with everyone
it is a communication that is mediated
by information technologies
but talk about technologies this is
not enough we should talk about those
who design this technology that
master which puts into effect that the
manage who sell them and then those who
use so we’re in this
ecosystem we can see that we come
becomes more and more dependent on
technology providers and to
technology solutions for the
better and manage for the worse then
in this context of hyper connectivity
ubiquitous permanent and in this
hyper connectivity we can see that we have
need and I come back to this conquest
shits these new territories
mapping information proof
is if you want to see
March moon images of the funds
submarines you have access to it through
your favorite search engines
maybe we read in this recording
information and we have
mentioned earlier with viruses
biological
we see this dna is pretty but
maybe the dna is the first
information system that existed before
even to talk about technologies of
the information he has with
sensors and this integration into the
biological body of electronics on
is able to capture permanently
the living data and we talk about
body but I told you about my dog
just now cows connected eh
well we broaden this sense of capturing
training no longer to the human being nor
to objects at the level of techniques but
to the living world and the system
of information finally becomes the system
dna living information systems
becomes a value and merchants the fact
it has digitized knows that
in computer science that these treated by
computers and many one is in
in the living industry we talked about
of industry 2.0 2.3 points 0.4 point
zero and here we are in the 5.0 it’s
the life industry and we see that if
we consider that training as a
market value
everything is for sale on the internet and everything
and vandam on the internet and all our
representation of the mediated world of
world via technologies that is going to
summarize by coded information
in binary processed by algorithms
and computers that make
algorithmic processing and
treatment with operations
arithmetic makes sense
so we also see this rule reduction
of the complexity of the living in
mathematical formulas
so that in my opinion it’s a first
try to quantify everything that is even
not quantifiable and we talk about
quantification of measurements if you want
feelings of behaviors
habit and that’s what we do when we
is online constantly so the
first risk is to lose a little bit of
what represents us what makes
to entrust it to those who have
algorithms to software that will
take advantage of this learning is
what is called intelligence
artificial who will learn from us
two of behavior of our feelings
why shut up to put us in
Computer boxes because we know
very well done is doing
trees and make boxes in
which one will return behaviors
so for me the first take of
risk with this computerization that goes
towards rhdp tease automation at sion of
society these two standards and everything
which is same axis was unthinkable
can normalize what is it to do
to return behaviors in
habits and that’s a first risk
when taking this risk also
against we go on the internet
other than feeding systems
learning that will tell us
how to do and what to do
understand that the easier it will be
for us more we will let ourselves
dispossess of a way to take
decisions and that’s what’s done with
all his electronic assistants who
are who arrive in our homes in
our bedrooms for for us
help us make life easier so under
this contribution of effortless for the human
the facilitation of this companionship
wants that’s how we are sold
the pavement of the companionship
lets dispossess of what was doing
our human nature ie a little
our some our weaknesses our
failures and then taking
decision so that’s a major risk
the second risk that may be
as invisible is that of
understand that when we deliver a
Data on the internet that a picture consists
of a comment that we make a
research we do on an engine
of research
that’s about 20% of the data that
we leave school we are conscious
data in a deliberate way with
which we gave our consent
but what you have to understand is 80%
80% of this information is captured at
round what’s called metadata
the one where you are with the equipment
etc., etc
so it’s metadata data
and in addition with its algorithms that are
ubiquitous that exists everywhere that make
the wealth and power of his
hegemonic actors of the net it is
data that will be calculated from
of data that you are going to leave behind
metadata so we will ourselves
helped fuel a system that
we overtake and first try to lose
there against the control of the hidden life
of our data the one that we that we
know but all those we
let’s ignore and the one we do not know for
call them our fingerprint
our digital double and there he we
completely escapes him even when
we go on the internet
since one is rather benevolent and
well we will give a lot of things we will
to say we will not necessarily think the face
obscure of the internet this duality and
we will be deprived of everything
heap of what makes our human nature
we will become transparent while
that the multinationals for such
that they save are
Multinational although initially there
had some startups as had ideas
awesome often they were redeemed
good they will lack transparency
we must never give ourselves the means to
know what are these data that we
who we make up what she what they
are are doing how are they
marketed
how they are treated and then also
with the internet it is the possibility of
to make wonderful encounters but
it’s also the threat of a strong of
meetings a little less pleasant
why because everyone can
to connect on the internet we will act
hidden behind a screen
and then at a distance and there the bad ones
confronts its potential and in its
bad meetings we can talk
also of all that they will lead to
from scams to manipulations to
harassment all kinds of mistakes
on which we
ourselves as an individual but of
younger to older to be exposed and
in this population we are
we are all
exposed to manipulation of information
to misinformation
which will lead us to take some
decisions that will be who could have been
other if we had not had this
information is found what is true
in the information on the internet is
completely difficult on time
current and we must take a risk of
amazing to trust a
entity a server on which we are
connect a person with whom you
communicates that may not be the
anyone we think we would like
with whom is in itself very communicated
this possibility of fraud
of scam it is huge at the level
individuals there are plenty of armagh
sentimental that exist for pretty
future still since we are pretty naive
we want to believe alongside a small
little wonderful of this meeting
and then there are clever manipulators or
predator who are on the internet who are going
look for the fault and this flaw that
we all have us as humans
will also be fairly easy to spot
fact that we deliver a lot
information sometimes on networks
social
so social networks are a mine
of gold to show scams
against individuals but
also at the level of organizations this
we’ve seen these last months
and in recent years it’s all that
which is being held hostage to resources
computer to perform
blackmail so it can be
blackmail to reputation but this is the
blackmail by the fact if we do not pay a
some ransom well the data is
lost the systems are blocked and we
sees this gradation of problems
possible for individuals but also
for organizations but as well
sure for states that become of
increasingly dependent on his
IT infrastructure and
telecoms to exist and all our
vital infrastructure whether for
energy the hospital the finance depend on
also computer science
unfortunately what is recent and which raises
the complexity that says complexity says no
mastery it’s this interdependence of
its infrastructure and all the effects
domino that we could have
with cascading risks with
impacts that could be catastrophic
so this risk taking we are
not necessarily conscious are not
necessarily we do not have the impression of
to do a sport of the extreme when you are
on the internet but yet and for
as much as we could have
really catastrophic as
that individual on our human life on the
economic competitiveness of enterprises
and then on the sovereignty of the state
so real problems that we
start taking a little bit
the scale of the problem and I do not think so
we must have the right solutions
the ways of being able to handle that why
I say that’s the vision that I have
is that the techno that is so
complex one becomes so dependent
of this technology and we
so little control and have suffered
cyber attacks have sometimes reacted to
cyber attacks
look what happened in
the news finally enough to open the
newspaper to listen to the radio for himself
account to all vulnerable to
computer cyber attacks including
in Switzerland between viruses and stop
not at the borders
still they move a little bit and in
do you suffer these cyber attacks on them
master not have undergone this evolution
technology that we adapt because we
can not do otherwise because also
we are made to believe that there is no
other alternative and that this
technological evolution is a
natural evolution or it’s
completely wrong it’s not a
evolution to darwin technologies
as I was trying to evoke it all to
the time previously they are issued
of a political cultural context
particular economic
actors including state then in
function of the fact that we do not control
this technology we have the brilliant idea of
to tell ourselves if we do not master the
technology it’s okay we’re going
add technology for
mastering technology and we have
tend to trust a
technology that still masters me
who also have other problems
that generate problem is maybe that
the main risk when we’re in
this state of mind of nation technology
of one of society those to think that the
technology will answer problems
of the economic problems of
social problems problems
policies and that’s wrong it goes in
generate others his masked head
some problems but it will have other
problems so this leap forward
technological and for me it seems to me
a major risk so what are the
aggravating factors of this
risk is to think that the
technologies are vulnerable are
friable
it’s said it’s complex but not
only we did not think this
complexity in terms of security we did not
especially not taking into account the needs
even the security requirements for
have this environment of trust and
it’s all the more
that security intuitively
can think that they are expensive in
terms of development research
implementation of management and that
nobody wants to pay the cost of
security and I will go even beyond
saying that insecurity is benefiting
some actors so there is no
security there is no what we say
English of security by design is
no protection of private data in
native
why because all models
economics of this digital economy
is based on data mining
so long as we do not change this paradigm
fundamentals of the digital economy
we will not be able to protect the data
the aggravating factors his set no
taking into account security needs
this fragility of the barriers of
security when they exist all the
all security solutions have been
broken cracked and had effects
it’s detrimental to the safety of
infrastructure so a great
difficulty to ensure this security
which is also doubled by the fact that
the malicious ones understood very well
how to do business with this
digital environment to take advantage of
this insecurity and if the information has
of value for legitimate businesses
has all the more value for the
companies there here all the actors
malicious people who want to grab
this wealth and what to see
is that in this infrastructure
digital we have our systems
of information that represents us who
are perhaps symbols to
destroy and that’s the close of the world
terrorists who want to destroy
symbols our economy who are were
represented worn by the internet
and then it’s a source
enrichment so we are targets
we became targets online
interconnected connected
ah ah finally the object of cyber crime
of cyber attacks and this population
actors who can be attractive
Actu can be ordered to seynod if
we are attractive targets for
these actors there they knew how to develop
a whole economy of this malice
embedded in software since the
tear c of computer code over the
program and that ‘s information we
are we going to find all this on
internet on the hidden side of
the internet will tell us about dark web
this notion of black and black holes everything
on time we could also do the
link and everything sells and everything is bought
on the internet including skills
and with this tool
linking targets and
victims of targets and valves having
is also putting everyone in touch
all the actors that can be
performing for malicious data
so all that is allocated to buy
and it’s very easy to be
malicious on the internet it will be
may be the subject of another conference
puts so there is an entire ecosystem
favorable to this at these cyberattacks to
these cyber maliciousness that are
possible on the internet
what can be said perhaps also in
terms of perspectives so we drew up
a panorama enough to these standards and that’s
the notion of risk therefore what risks
want to take us now on
Internet
knowing that we can not trust
trust is not possible no she
is impossible in the actors with
which we are going to communicate but
impossible in the technologies we
so let’s say how to ensure this level of
trust and why maybe the
question that it might be necessary
ask that’s why we’re going to give
our lives on the internet while nothing and
now it’s known nothing is reliable
and secure or secure in the
time when you plug in a phone
on the internet or an object connected to
internet is not the object we
branch it’s our lives that’s that
we bend over the internet so ask
the question how far do I want to
take a risk for a service that
can entertain me who can have fun
who can do me a favor who can
make life easier but what do I
give in exchange what is my currency
the exchanges is where the actors of
the internet are very strong is that they
have made money with free
that means we are given the
products anyway and the slogan for
was to turn the data into gold and the
connectivity in power I think that
until we become aware of
the importance of this marketing slogan that
is carried by these hegemonic actors of the
net we will not take enough
of risk taken by indulging like that
endless give us arises is
maybe the question of knowing is this
that to accept this new
application that can have fun a great
service is what I need to give
all access to all my contacts at all
my content that I find on my
periphery so try to have some
basic reflexes of this rest
reclaim our ecosystem our life
and ask the question of the interest of
the utility of this connectivity of these
data
and then maybe
I think he could dare to take the
risk of transforming everything that is
scientific and technological progress
in social economic progress and
policy
that’s a risk I want to take
on the other hand the risk I especially not
want to take his knowledge all
what is now known about this
technology of this vulnerability and of
its dangers borne by these technologies
these threats
frankly I do not want to take the
risk of being banished by the generations
future
this choice is now can no longer say
we did not know and so it’s up to us
all together to help build that
digital ecosystem to define the
rules of the game to know what is
acceptable or not according to our
culture of our worldview and of
what you want to leave as a legacy
to our children
