Topic:Secure Element – Protecting Your Digital Life
Abstract:We live in a digital society. How safe is our digital life? What risks are our personal information facing? How do we secure our electronic devices (e.g. smart phones, PCs, passports, smart meters)? How do we safely access online services? Why do our banking cards have chip symbols? Answers to these questions vary through time, location, and context, but some principles of protection are surprisingly steady. To help understand all this, I will first provide some background about secure elements, and then explain how the secure elements provide security and privacy protections in our digital life. We will also learn how products can incorporate these secure elements, how services can utilize them, and how people and machines can benefit from them. Slides
