Privacy Preserving Problems in Big Data Management
Abstract:
The need to efficiently store and query large scale datasets is evident in the growing number of data-intensive applications, particularly to maximize the mining of intelligence from these data (e.g., to inform decision making). However, directly releasing dataset for analysis may leak sensitive information of an individual even if the data is anonymized, as demonstrated by the re-identification attacks on the DBpedia datasets. In this talk, we introduce a novel k-decomposition algorithm and define a new information loss matrix designed for utility measurement in massively large graph datasets. We also propose a novel privacy preserving framework that can be seamlessly integrated with graph storage, anonymization, query processing, and analysis.

Internet Technologies driven Public Management/E-government in the Digital Economy
Abstract:
Change is permanent, the world is continually changing. In the field of internet technology, the changes are not just moderate but it is radical and transformational in nature leading to faster digital transformation. Digital transformation is a broader term than internet “unicorns”, at its core, digital transformation is about using the latest technology to do what we already do – but in an innovative way. In other words, digital transformation refers to the adoption of digital technology to transform services or businesses. This is achieved by replacing manual processes with digital ones or replacing outdated digital technology with upgraded digital technology. Here an attempt is made to relate internet technology, public management and its application on E-government in the digital economy. This effort will seek to discover the foundations of Public Management and how it relates to information technology, specifically understanding E-government and other technologies in the public domain. This presentation will include the following: digital economy, digital transformation, public management, new public management, internet technology and it also discusses the E-government initiatives of different countries across the globe.
Keywords: Internet Technologies, Digital Economy, Public Management, E-Government.

Improving Cybersecurity Through Simulated Phishing Attack and Embedded Training Campaign
Abstract:
Phishing attacks are costly for any organizations and individuals. As such, organizations are raising phishing awareness among employees through simulated phishing attacks and training campaign. However, existing academic research has provided little guidance on how to strategize and implement a combined phishing awareness and training campaign. In this study, we conduct an in-depth case study on a large phishing campaign involving 10,928 individuals. The study provides a contextual understanding of the simulated phishing attack together with embedded training campaign. Based on the case findings, this study highlights the best practices for phishing campaign managers. This research is useful for organizations that are planning or are in the process of implementing or reviewing their phishing awareness and education program.

A Study of Systems Approach in Service Design
Abstract:
Service Design or Service Operations Design is a new buzzword in the world. For the interpretation that is currently still confusing, in this topic I will discuss a good and correct understanding of Service Design. The buzzword "Service Design" is getting more popular because of a campaign from a company that wants to change its direction in selling services from "Customer Experience" to "Service Design". The Service Design based on Human-centered Design and aims to produce service processes and strategies with outstanding User Experience (UX). In the context of products consisting of goods and services, Service Design is closely related to Product Design. The concept of service design, it will help the teams to better communicate and collaborate by providing an in-depth understanding of the multiple contributions they can integrate to create the conditions for new service. Service design incorporates both user and system perspectives, allowing the team to gain multiple perspectives by zooming in and out on the interactions within the service.

Theory and Model of Urban Housing Hedonic Rent
Abstract:
There are bound to be differences in the formation logic and main influencing factors between housing prices and rents within cities. However, the current research results on rent are still far less than housing prices. I draw on the basic ideas and starting points of the hedonic price theory (applicable to the study of housing prices), combined with the basic characteristics of the formation of housing rents, to propose a theoretical framework and a hedonic rent model suitable for the study of urban housing rental prices. The theoretical framework of hedonic rent can be briefly described as follows: housing has a variety of characteristic differences and is a heterogeneous rentable commodity. These characteristics jointly determine the rent of the house, and the rent of the house is the comprehensive manifestation (monetary manifestation) of its various characteristics. This theoretical framework can be used to analyze and explain the influencing factors and formation mechanisms of housing rents within cities. Compared with the traditional hedonic price theory, the hedonic rent theory is more suitable for explaining and analyzing the influencing factors of urban housing rent. Under the guidance of rental housing, the components of housing characteristics are divided into "quartiles", highlighting the characteristics of convenience and environment, which is more in line with the characteristics of China's urban rental market than the traditional hedonic price model ("three-point method"). On this basis, a characteristic rent model is constructed. The characteristic rent model is a regression model, the housing rent is the dependent variable, and the evaluation indicators related to building characteristics, convenience characteristics, environmental characteristics, and location characteristics are independent variables, and the model can be estimated by global regression or local regression.
