The Diem blockchain, which was initiated in 2018 by Facebook, includes a novel programming language called Move for implementingsmart contracts. The correctness of Move programs is especially important because the blockchain will host large amounts of assets, those assets are managed by smart contracts, and because there is a history of large losses on other blockchains because of bugs in smart contracts. The Move language is designed to be as safe as we can make it, and it is accompanied by a formal specification and automatic verification tool, called the Move Prover. A project to specify and formally verify as many important properties of the Move standard library is now well underway. This talk will be about the goals of the project and the most interesting insights we've had as of the time of the presentation. The entire blockchain implementation, including the Move language, virtual machine, the Move Prover, and near-final various Move modules are available on http://github.com/libra About the speaker: David L.

Traditionally, security and privacy research focused mostly on technical mechanisms and was based on the naive assumptions that Alice and Bob were capable, attentive, and willing to jump through any number of hoops to communicate securely. However, about 20 years ago that started to change when a seminal paper asked "Why Johnny Can't Encrypt" and called for usability evaluations and usable design strategies for security. Today a substantial body of interdisciplinary literature exists on usability evaluations and design strategies for both security and privacy. Nonetheless, it is still difficult for most people to encrypt their email, manage their passwords, and configure their social network privacy settings. In this talk I will highlight some of the lessons learned from the past 20 years of usable privacy and security research, and explore where the field might be headed. About the speaker: Lorrie Faith Cranor is the Director and Bosch Distinguished Professor in Security and Privacy Technologies of CyLab and the FORE Systems Professor of Computer Science and of Engineering and Public Policy at Carnegie Mellon University. She also directs the CyLab Usable Privacy and Security Laboratory (CUPS) and co-directs the MSIT-Privacy Engineering masters program. In 2016 she served as Chief Technologist at the US Federal Trade Commission. She is also a co-founder of Wombat Security Technologies, Inc, a security awareness training company that was acquired by Proofpoint. She has authored over 200 research papers on online privacy, usable security, and other topics. She has played a key role in building the usable privacy and security research community, having co-edited the seminal book Security and Usability and founded the Symposium On Usable Privacy and Security (SOUPS). She has served on a number of boards and working groups, including the Electronic Frontier Foundation Board of Directors, the Computing Research Association Board of Directors, and the Aspen Institute Cybersecurity Group. In her younger days she was honored as one of the top 100 innovators 35 or younger by Technology Review magazine. More recently she was elected to the ACM CHI Academy, named an ACM Fellow for her contributions to usable privacy and security research and education, and named an IEEE Fellow for her contributions to privacy engineering. She has also received an Alumni Achievement Award from the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, the 2018 ACM CHI Social Impact Award, the 2018 International Association of Privacy Professionals Privacy Leadership Award, and (with colleagues) the 2018 IEEE Cybersecurity Award for Practice. She was previously a researcher at AT&T-Labs Research and taught in the Stern School of Business at New York University. She holds a doctorate in Engineering and Policy from Washington University in St. Louis. In 2012-13 she spent her sabbatical as a fellow in the Frank-Ratchye STUDIO for Creative Inquiry at Carnegie Mellon University where she worked on fiber arts projects that combined her interests in privacy and security, quilting, computers, and technology. She practices yoga, plays soccer, walks to work, and runs after her three teenagers.

Weekly Wrap for Dec. 6, 2019 Plus, Juniper jams SD-LAN control into its SD-WAN management platform, and AWS partners with Verizon at the edge One former Google exec replaces another at Juniper; enterprises gain a new SD-branch management option; and Verizon gets on AWS' wavelength. Juniper CTO Bikash Koley Calls It Quits Juniper SD-WAN Now Handles SD-LAN AWS, Verizon Launch 5G Partnership at re:Invent SDxCentral Weekly Wrap Full Transcript Today is November 22, 2019, and this is the SDxCentral Weekly Wrap where we cover the week’s top stories on next-generation IT infrastructure. This week’s episode of the Weekly Wrap is sponsored by Silver Peak. Learn more about the Silver Peak SD-WAN solution. Juniper Networks named a new CTO that will see the vendor exchange one former Google executive for another. The company noted in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing late last month that Bikash Koley would leave his CTO role effective January 3. Juniper followed up that discrete announcement with an official press release this week touting the hiring of Raj Yavatkar to that position. Yavatkar is currently an IEEE Fellow and previously headed the development of network virtualization infrastructure and products for cloud networking at Google. Prior to Google, Yavatkar held leadership roles at VMware and Intel. Koley joined Juniper from Google in 2017. The hire was quite a coup for the networking vendor, which at the time had seen declining router and security business revenue and struggled to sell its technology strategy. During his tenure with the cloud giant, Koley designed Google’s production network infrastructure, spanning data center, backbones, optical, and the content edge. His team also oversaw Google’s SDN evolution. After jumping ship for Juniper, he said his strategy was to make the network simple using automation and orchestration across a multi-cloud environment. Like his predecessor, Yavatkar will be tasked with advancing Juniper’s strategy of enabling highly automated, artificial intelligence-driven networks. Juniper this week also announced that its SD-WAN management console now includes support for its SD-LAN service that provides enterprises with a simplified approach to managing their SD-branch deployments. The SD-WAN enhancement allows users to now provision Juniper’s EX Series switches to manage LAN fabrics and configure LAN virtualization and security policies similar to how they control their SD-WAN environment.

Arogyaswami J. Paulraj AVSM, VSM (born 14 April 1944) is a distinguished Indian-American electrical engineer. A former Commodore in the Indian Navy, he is currently a Professor Emeritus in the Dept. of Elect. Engineering at Stanford University.   Paulraj was born in Pollachi near Coimbatore, India, one of six children of Sinappan Arogyaswami and his wife Rose. He joined the Indian Navy at age 15 through the National Defence Academy, Khadakvasla and served the Navy for 30 years. Paulraj received his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Naval College of Engineering, Lonavala, India, and his doctorate in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi.   Paulraj is the pioneer of a breakthrough wireless technology known as MIMO (multiple input, multiple output) that dramatically increases performance of wireless systems. MIMO is now core technology in latest WiFi and LTE systems. Paulraj served in India till 1991 where he is known for pioneering the development of military sonars (APSOH family). Paulraj also served as the founding director for three major labs in India - Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (CAIR), CDAC (Center for Development of Advanced Computing) and CRL (Central Research Labs of Bharat Electronics).   Paulraj's MIMO technology is now crucial to local area and mobile wireless communications. MIMO allows both higher data rates and wider coverage areas. MIMO technology involves using multiple antennas at both the transmit station and the receive station. Efficiency is increased because parallel streams of data can be multiplexed within the same channel.   Paulraj first developed the idea of MIMO in 1992 while at Stanford University. Using the spatial multiplexing concept that exploits MIMO antennas, he demonstrated that spectral efficiency could be improved by transmitting independent data streams from each antenna and then exploiting the distinct spatial signatures of each stream at the receive antennas to separate them. Paulraj was issued a patent for the MIMO concept in 1994. He faced skepticism from industry and funding sources and practical application of the technology was not seen until the early 2000s. Among the obstacles, digital transmission was needed to fully exploit the potential of MIMO, but the U.S. wireless industry was still predominantly analog at the time. However, Paulraj persisted and held annual workshops at Stanford on the technology that eventually helped interest in MIMO and spatial multiplexing take hold.   Paulraj founded Iospan Wireless Inc. in 1998 to form the first company to incorporate MIMO technology in a commercial system. The system developed by Paulraj at Iospan helped erase lingering skepticism about the practicality of MIMO. The lessons learned at Iospan gave the wireless industry the confidence to incorporate MIMO into emerging wireless standards, and the technology developed at Iospan such as spatial multiplexing, orthogonal frequency-division multiple access and opportunistic scheduling, can be seen in today's 4G systems. Intel Corp. acquired part of Iospan in 2003 to help launch its own push into WiMAX, further establishing the importance of Paulraj's MIMO concept. Paulraj co-founded Beceem Communications in 2003 and the company became a leader in WiMAX chipsets. Beceem was acquired by Broadcom Corp. in 2010.   An IEEE Fellow, Paulraj is also a member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering and several other scientific / engineering academies. His awards include the IEEE Signal Processing Society Technical Achievement Award and Padma Bhushan from the president of India, one of the country's highest civilian awards. Paulraj is a Professor Emeritus at Stanford University, Calif., and is also a Senior Advisor to Broadcom Corp., Irvine, Calif.   During his 30 years in the Indian (Navy) (1961-1991), he founded three national level laboratories in India and headed one of India's most successful military R&D projects – APSOH sonar. He received over a dozen awards (many at the national level) in India including the Padma Bhushan, Ati Vishist Seva Medal and the VASVIK Medal.   Paulraj has set examples of bridging Academia & Tech Industry by bringing Academic Innovations to the center-stage of the Industry. After having designed and developed one of the most advanced Sonar APSOH for the Indian Navy, while he proposed the idea of MIMO from Stanford, it naturally faced skepticism and was rejected by the Industry. His relentless persistence for over two decades during which he created working models of his MIMO ideas and proved them by creating two high technology companies in the Silicon Valley.
