Our eGoose Proof of Concept - Friends refering Friends?

Dear all - its been about a week since we launched our Whatsapp based proof of concept - do contact me via Whatsapp +49 (0) 1709053671 if you would like to join.

We now have 19 members and are welcoming them as follows:

"Dear all - please again welcome <name> to our "cyber self-protection" group :) A group of (friends of) friends which is there for each other in case of cyber incidents and imminent risks - a group that will hopefully always have extremely LOW levels of activity!

"In our ecosystem we protect each other from cyber threats by telling others when we have come close to being compromised or actually have been compromised. "

<name> is a friend of <name> so please extend your trust to him. 

Rules of Engagement

1. Protect friends by encouraging them to register via SMS/WhatsApp.

2. If you think you are compromised -> SMS/Whatsapp your trusted expert for arranging a personal call to review it (this is me for the moment).

3. If you are compromised -> SMS/Whatsapp your trusted expert for (a) informing your friends on your behalf and / or (b) arranging a personal call to explore treatments.

4. If you are notified by SMS/Whatsapp from a friend and / or the trusted expert that a friend is compromised -> SMS/Whatsapp your trusted expert for arranging a personal call to review your situation."

The attached image shows our emerging network (using Gephi to visualize with default settings and a Fruchterman Reingold layout). As friend referals grow the network is by default becoming more decentral. 

In the case of a cyber safety incident / impending risk threat we can expect knowledge to diffuse along the connection paths we see. 

Below some research details about this diffusion but would be good to discuss pragmatic actions to improve these.

Network variables affecting the speed of diffusion are (Schwabe, O., Almeida, N., Schneider, L., Salvado, A. (2020) A Framework for Accelerating Innovation through Innovation Webs (in the Construction Industry). Sustainability and Automation in Smart Constructions. Proceedings of the International Conference on Automation Innovation in Construction (CIAC-2019), Leiria, Portugal. Springer ISBN 978-3-030-35533-3.)

Roundtable “Improving City Cybersecurity – Accelerating the Sharing of Sensitive Personal Knowledge “- April 21 at 4PM CET

Bild
Dear all, In collaboration with Major Cities of Europe ( https://www.majorcities.eu/ )  this round table  will give us the opportunity for sharing examples on how we could collaboratively change the paradigm about on how to manage cybersecurity threats in a dynamic and effective way. Please contact me at oliver.schwabe@innovation-web.eu if you are interested in participating and I will forward the invite. Background: Daily news about cyberattacks around the world show that City administrations are sensitive targets of phishing, ransomware, malicious viruses etc.  Attacks occur to all our IT systems, sometimes without even us noticing. Managing those threats by being ready to prevent them is a major challenge. Technology solutions, CISOs security officers, national and international official initiatives are essential but not enough. Many CIOs, especially medium / small cities, feel alone in managing these overwhelming issues. Often these attacks succeed with heavy consequences but very

Exploring the Second Innovation Web: The Socialization (Community Building) Archetype

Bild
The second innovation web archetype of relevance is the “socialization web”, which is also called the “community” web. The socialization web archetype is web archetype is a web of relationships which evolves out of the research web archetype as the research and / or innovation crystalizes and begins reaching early stage practitioners / evangelists in organizations. It consists of tangible and intangible exchanges between the researchers and / or innovators, the users, marketeers and product packagers. The research web archetype continues to “operate”. Once the research web has been transitioned to the socialization web archetype, primarily by stabilizing its transition threshold performance and populating the new roles od Marketeer(s) and Product Packager, a new sequence of transactions emerges while the research web continues to “operate”. In a first step we see innovators and users sharing intangible stories with marketeers and product packagers about their experience and th
