| Unblocking the transport network: smarter, safer travel | The key to unblocking the transport network is to join up the parties involved in disseminating travel information. This means regulation, to ensure a high quality common pool of data, and liberalisation, to encourage its exploitation by private sector information wholesalers and retailers. |
| A Consultation on Smart Metering for Electricity and Gas | Detica's response to the request by Ofgem to update their views on the key issues to be addressed by the Government's Consultation on Smart Metering for Electricity and Gas. |
| A consultation on legislation to address illicit P2P file sharing | This document outlines Detica's reponse to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) 'consultation on legislation to address illicit Peer to Peer (P2P) file sharing' published on 16th June 2009. |
| An operational model for more effective cyber security | In this white paper we make the
argument for a new operational
model to deliver a more effective
approach to cyber security.This will
enable the UK to play a significant
international role in delivering
a better and more secure cyber
space for tomorrow. |
| Securing smart meters: getting it right first time | The roll out of smart meters promises to deliver significant benefits. The programme will represent a significant addition to the Critical National Infrastructure and, as such, security and privacy must be key considerations in its design. |
| A consultation on smart metering for electricity and gas | This document outlines Detica's initial response to the Department of Energy and Climate Changes (DECC) "Consultation on Smart Metering for Electricity and Gas". |
| An 'everybody wins' strategy for digital content | A balanced approach to reducing unauthorised digital content copying |
| Customer intelligence: it's all in the network | The key to better targeting and treatment is to gain insight into the relationships customers have with other people and the key events and activities in their lives. Social network analysis provides a breakthrough in understanding human relationships and enables financial services providers to uncover hidden drivers of customer churn and viral product take-up in a way that is simply not possible using traditional techniques. |
| Solvency II: will your data let you down? | The 2012 transition to the Solvency II regime should not simply be seen as a 'must do' regulatory requirement but also an opportunity to introduce a more responsive risk management culture underpinned by a robust set of data assets. Insurers that stand to benefit most from Solvency II will be those that seize the opportunity to take a more risk-based approach to day-to-day business decision making. |
| Holistic Information Assurance | Protecting the enterprise |
| The Information Revolution and its impact on Homeland Security | We now need a radical new approach if we are to provide an effective threat intelligence capability able to seek out the digital footprints laid down by those who threaten the security of the state, the safety of the public, or who seek to commit serious and organised crime. |
| Sun Tzu and the Art of War | In the sixth century BC, Sun Tzu wrote his military treatise "The Art of War". Despite being written over two millennia ago, the principles outlined in "The Art of War" are acknowledged by the Institute for National Strategic Studies at the National Defense University in the United States of America as being relevant today in Information Warfare and cyber-security. |
| Algorithmic trading - can you meet the need for speed? | Financial markets participants are competing to deploy low latency architectures that can handle the explosion in data volumes, provide best execution and run algorithmic trading strategies. The differentiation will lie in who can do it most profitably without spending the gains on infrastructure. |
| Preventing operational losses | Only by deploying a networked operational risk model supported by advanced information intelligence will banks be in a position to truly confront and deal with today's threats |
| Detecting telecoms subscription fraud | Social network analysis can identify networks of fraudsters operating below the threshold of current systems and flag potential new fraudsters much earlier to reduce if not prevent losses. |
| A question of identity | Bringing multiple data sources together, from across a range of public and private sector bodies will facilitate the analysis of behavioural patterns and reveal identity fraud. |
| Total recall | We discuss the potential effectiveness of data retention measures set out in the directive issued by the EU in December 2005. |
| Toward the single enterprise view | We believe that effective enterprise-wide data governance is the only viable route for any large organisation to move successfully toward the vision of the 'Single Enterprise View'. While MDM and CDI cannot provide the complete solution, they represent valuable tools in this mission. |
| The engine of capability development | Network Enabled Capability (NEC) has been the subject of considerable debate throughout the Defence community. We discuss the importance of Through Life Capability Management in delivering best-practice process integration, by providing a consistent framework that allows the Defence community as a whole to take an enterprise-wide view. |
| Data driven investigation | For financial institutions, detection and management of small-scale fraud represents a significant challenge. The answer is to stop thinking about the analysis of transactions, accounts or even the single view of customer, but instead to think about what might represent a network of seemingly loosely-related activity. |
| Insider Fraud | The risk of internal fraud cannot be ignored by any organisation and technology has a key role to play in demonstrating good corporate governance. |
