Friends! Chicago Security Meetup is joining forces with Chicago Java Users Group (CJUG) to bring you a fine evening of Java and InfoSec, all from the comfort of your couch.

Grab your favorite beverage and join us as we welcome Mercedes Wyss and Matt Sicker onto our virtual stage as they take us through a deep-dive into Identity Management in Cloud and Cryptography in Java.

PRESENTATION #1:

Modern Identity Management (in the era of Serverless and Microservices)

SPEAKER: Mercedes Wyss (@itrjwyss)

ABSTRACT:

If you believe that Identity Management (IdM) is just related with the Authentication and Authorization processes, this is a talk for you.

Identity Management is an umbrella term for all of the core logic around identity. That means manage provisioning (assigning identities to users), account management (maintaining those identities), identity governance (assigning them to groups and roles and adjusting permissions as needed), authentication, authorization, identity federation (ensuring users can use the same identification data to access resources on related domains). A login is more than a Single Sign On, we can use Passwordless, Federated Identity (FB, GitHub), Multifactor Authentication, improving our users experience.

The main purpose of this talk is gain an in-depth knowledge of those terms, in addition explore some PaaS, that can help to achieve all that in our projects easier and faster.

PRESENTATION #2:

Modern Cryptography in Java

SPEAKER: Matt Sicker (Twitter: @jvz)

ABSTRACT:

Cryptography is a vast topic bursting with acronyms, misinformation, and frequent gotchas when either implementing or using cryptographic algorithms. Encryption algorithms in particular are historically quite prone to misuse, and the overly generic cryptography APIs provided by most programming languages or standard libraries have only exasperated the problem. In this talk, we’ll cover the basic concepts of cryptography and information security, take a tour of the cryptographic APIs provided by the standard Java class library, and provide a deeper look at the concept of authenticated encryption, the cryptographic design pattern used in securing network protocols like SSL/TLS, SSH, and IPsec.

BIO:

Matt Sicker is a software engineer on the Jenkins Security Team with a fondness for mathematics, cryptography, functional programming, and F/OSS. He is the Secretary for the Apache Software Foundation; VP, Logging Services, on the Log4j project; and helps co-ordinate Apache’s participation in the Outreachy mentorship program. Outside computers, he nerds out about coffee, cooking, beer, and various social sciences.
