This year’s additions to the Black Hat Asia program will deliver opportunities to address issues impacting the industry, offer a platform for local research, invite and educate individuals from all backgrounds, and more.
Black Hat Asia will take place March 26-29, 2019 at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore. For more information and to save S$200 on registration prices by March 22, please visit: blackhat.com/asia-19/registration.html
H.A.S.H. event taking place alongside Black Hat Asia: Thursday, March 28
Taking place Thursday during Black Hat Asia, the Hackers Appreciation & Social Hour (H.A.S.H.) is a networking and appreciation session organised by the Government Technology Agency (GovTech) & Cyber Security Agency (CSA) for participants of the Government Bug Bounty Programme.

Black Hat community talks were developed to provide a focus on relevant issues currently impacting the InfoSec community. For the first time, these talks will be offered to the Black Hat Asia audience, providing insights to help individuals both new to InfoSec, as well as seasoned professionals.
• “Keep Everyone In Sync: Effective Approaches Borrowed from Open Source Communities”: Wang Kang, Security Expert with the Alibaba Group, will provide an in-depth discussion around keeping the InfoSec community communications in sync without consuming additional resources or energy. His Briefing will not only provide proven research, but real world examples for an all-encompassing deep dive.
• “The Missing Pieces in Cyber Insurance”: Director at CrowdStrike and Black Hat Review Board member, Vincenzo Iozzo, will lead a discussion on the current state of risk modeling for cyber insurance, how the two industries are interacting, and what are the key missing pieces to have a functional insurance market for cyber risk.
• “Are We Converting Community Knowledge into Secure Organisations”: Pamela O’Shea, Director of Shea Information Security, will host a talk that identifies where the focus is in our community and what is expected of us in our day-to-day occupations according to industry standards. This analysis sets out where our interests overlap with our work and how we can use new knowledge circulating among researchers to the benefit of our organisations.
Local Arsenal Tools:
Black Hat Arsenal, which showcases the hottest developments from the open-source community, will be welcoming several local researchers to demo their tools onsite at Black Hat Asia. Among these local tools are researchers who participated and won via HackSmith v2.0, a hackathon co-organised by Black Hat Asia and Division Zero in Singapore that aims to promote Singapore InfoSec tools development.

Eureka! Mary Kay reveals groundbreaking research on facial redness
KUALA LUMPUR, March 13 (Bernama) -- Listen up, women! Here’s excellent news for you.
Mary Kay Inc. senior principal scientist, David Gan has shared new insights in evaluating and understanding facial redness at the 20th World Dermatology Congress in Singapore.
Mary Kay scientists have identified botanical extracts that help reduce the production of pro-inflammatory proteins and enzymes in the skin, and developed a cosmetic formulation containing these extracts to effectively address facial redness.
After four weeks of use, the cosmetic formula reduced overall facial redness and skin temperature in subjects with persistent skin irritation.
Gan said at Mary Kay, there was nothing more rewarding than addressing skin issues that impacted women and creating innovative products that provided skin benefits which were sought by consumers.
“The results of this continued research will help us make Mary Kay® products better as we consider the concerns and experience of our consumers.”
Mary Kay Inc. continues its decades-long commitment to skin science research as a sponsor of the two-day event, beginning today (March 13).
Themed, ‘Exploring the New Approaches in Dermatology’, the event gathered researchers, academicians and scientists from the dermatology community worldwide to exchange information on technological advances and new scientific achievements.
The conference focused on skin health, skin ailments, allergy manifestations, clinical dermatology and cosmetic dermatology.

Kount CEO, IMF Advisory Group's sole fraud control executive
KUALA LUMPUR, March 8 (Bernama) -- Kount Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Bradley J. Wiskirchen has the distinction of being the sole fraud control industry executive in the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) High-Level Advisory Group on Finance and Technology.
By deepening the IMF’s understanding of machine learning and digital fraud prevention, Wiskirchen believes he will ultimately support merchants, vendors, banks and agencies worldwide in their effort to protect their digital innovation.
As cyberattacks continue to increase in frequency and sophistication, the committee has recognised a need to address questions regarding data ownership, use, access and protection.
The CEO of the digital fraud prevention solutions provider has deep expertise in these areas and previously served as board chairman for the Salt Lake City Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.
According to Wiskirchen, Kount protects the digital innovation of over 6,500 customers spanning 180 countries and without exception, he sees a pervasive focus on data protection and fraud prevention.
“From new account creation to account takeover, companies’ vigilance must extend beyond chargebacks and payment fraud. Protecting and securing their customer and partner information is paramount to their success.”
The IMF estimates that approximately, 1.7 billion adults worldwide do not have access to financial services.
Following the Bali Fintech Agenda, 12 policy elements have been outlined to support major social and economic impacts of empowering this population.
This effort will help IMF member countries harness the benefits and opportunities of fintech, while simultaneously managing the inherent risks as they rapidly transform the provision of banking services.
The Advisory Group also includes Ripple.com Executive Chairman (Chris Larsen); Alibaba Digital Economy Institute President (Dr Long Chen); and Deputy Assistant Secretary, International Financial Markets, US Treasury (Sharon Yang).
