Encryption, malicious software, data privacy, web and mobile security, secure access control and authentication – these were some of the topics discussed at the 14th edition of the ACM Conference on data and application security and privacy. Organised by INESC TEC and the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto (FCUP), this was the first time that the Conference took place in a country other than the United States of America.

Medicine, climate, quantum physics or materials science. These are just few of the areas where supercomputing and modelling can play a major role in scientific, industrial, and social development. To strategically improve cooperation between Europe and Japan in this area of research, the HANAMI - HPC Alliance for Applications and Supercomputing Innovation: the Europe-Japan Collaboration project was born.

Since its establishment, the CENTRA network has been working to facilitate collaborative endeavours that allow the adoption of transnational cyber infrastructures - relying on several members from different countries: Indonesia, the United States of America, Vietnam, or Japan. Hence, and to strengthen the relationships with said partners, INESC TEC researchers travelled to Tokyo to attend the latest event of this initiative.

Where do you draw the line between transparency and privacy in digital services? How can a person, as a user of services, validate the correct follow-up of his/her process, without compromising the confidentiality to which the respective providers are obliged to follow? The PeT – Privacy and Transparency project, led by the Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering, Technology and Science (INESC TEC) – in collaboration with the University of Minho (UMinho) – won the second place in the fourth edition of the IN3 + Award, One Million for Innovation. This initiative, aimed at ensuring transparency and privacy in digital services, received €250k to support its integration into the market – initially, at the national level, and in public and private services (healthcare, education, and justice).
