Privacy Engineering: Sharing Model-Based Practices.


This group facilitates the exchange of methods and tools for privacy engineering using models. Models serve as a universal language to describe and address privacy concerns across different viewpoints, supporting system development from conceptual design to lifecycle phases. Additionally, models aid in documenting and selecting solutions for specific contexts. IG project page

« Why AI Agents must have their own identity? »
Speakers:
Fabrice Rochette, is co-founder of the Verana Foundation and principal author of the Verifiable Trust and Verifiable Public Registry specifications. He has spent two decades building and operating software companies, and has worked in decentralized identity since 2020, introducing Verifiable Trust publicly at the Internet Identity Workshop (IIW39) in 2024. His work focuses on open, privacy-preserving trust infrastructure for services and AI agents.
Ariel Gentile: is CTO of 2060 OÜ (2060.io) and co-author of the Verifiable Trust specifications. A long-time open-source credential engineer and contributor to Credo (OpenWallet Foundation), he specializes in DIDComm-based secure communication. He leads engineering of Verana’s open-source stack: the public registry, the trust resolver, and verifiable service and user agents.
Verana is an open source, decentralized trust infrastructure that lets services, organizations and AI agents prove who they are, and who accredited them, before any data is exchanged. See more from Verana Foundation
We look forward to seeing you on September 17th, 17:00 CET/15:00 UTC!
