Sorry again for the last-minute announcement. Tomorrow, the 28th, I will appear at the
Information Processing Society of Japan Intensive Seminar
Toward a “Safe and Secure” IoT World
https://www.itscj.ipsj.or.jp/oshirase/2019/01/2018iot.html
. The title and description are:
Privacy in the IoT Era: Preventing IoT from Becoming the Internet of Threat
As we walk through a city, there are surveillance cameras and Wi-Fi access points; at home, smart speakers, smart locks, and smart dolls; and the companion that stays closest to us is the smartphone. Life in modern society is filled with explicit and implicit sensors. These bring convenience and security to consumers, but if things go wrong, they may backfire and completely overturn consumers’ privacy and well-being.
This talk considers what must be taken into account to prevent IoT from becoming an Internet of Threat to privacy, through (1) the relationship between identity and privacy, (2) privacy frameworks in ISO/IEC, and (3) an introduction to the status of discussions on IoT-related specifications in SC27/WG5, among other topics.
That was the plan, but just now (the 27th at half past 4 p.m.), when I looked at the preceding session, I saw that Professor Nakao will present
Trends in Security Standardization for IoT
Currently, ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27 (IT security) is discussing ISO/IEC 27030 (security and privacy guidelines for IoT). This presentation will focus on the latest deliberations and the content of the draft international standard. It will also share current guidelines and similar activities in Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, and elsewhere, and consider the future prospects for creating an ISO international standard that can be used in common across countries.

, which overlaps completely with my topic, so I think I will approach it from a slightly different angle. Stay tuned.
