At the risk of being a kill joy, I think that Terry's list below, while worthy, won't get accepted by RSA's pretty ruthless submission acceptance process.
I expect they will say that all 4 are pretty well known..
1 and 2 have been the subject of VRM, PDEC and now Customer Commons for some time
3 is less well known to the public, but to the RSA audience, I would have thought 'well known'.. if the panel had real answers to how to restrict or manage that, such as the European based PICOS and ABC4Trust groups have (google those with Kai Rannenburg) then we might have a chance with RSA.
4) is topical, but may not be in 6 months, and RSA may be sensitive around the topic for its own 'relationship managment' reasons .. :-). that said..yea, there is a wider Governance story to tell there..and a story about which is better? broad surveillance with very good governance? or piecemeal organically built up surveillance based on a concern from one party of another, that communicated to parties x, y, and z to enact the surveillance with all the risks of co-ordination, governance etc etc that that implies?...
But it's well off Kantara's patch... are you sure we are not better to start back with the IdoT problem space and build out to a place where we have both the expertise and it is relatively new territory?
No July 4th for me, you can tell, eh? :-)
Cheers

Terry, Jeff, Ingo,
Very good set of points Terry. Leakage in particular. UMA might help in that regard.
Identities of things is an interesting topic not the least in the sense that you have device, owners and users all of which bring their identities into things.
I would be interested in the panel as well. I have some experience around SCADA and transport to help bring those perspectives.
Look forward to the DG.
Sal

Hi Jeff-
I think you are spot-on. We can continue to define technical frameworks (and we will ;-) but the big storm brewing is:
a) The convenience and pervasiveness of connected services
b) Collection and monetization of data (can debate and categorize what is PII or not and how it is still usable, etc)
c) Identity ownership and control s: evolution, impact, possibilities
d) Challenges and impact on business models, and individuals as this battle looms.
From my perspective, there are four levels to this dilemma that should be reviewed/clarified for the audience:
1. Legacy models like the credit bureaus. They have long collecting everything, are bureaucratic, and monetize data in many ways. Facebook’s monetization model isn’t new just the way they collect it.
2. Opt-in relationships: Such as Facebook. We may be opted-in when we sign up (don’t agree with that by the way) but we do consciously sign up for the relationship and is intended to share on some level (unlike my mortgage account or my vehicle records or services).
3. Leakage: The usage of a service that does not disclose that it is collecting data, or irresponsibly leaks your data to another service (lots of mobile apps are quite “chatty” in this way). Basically, any that are “free” apps, are doing this so (and not disclosing) it’s a BIG problem.
4. Government Surveillance: PRISM, etc. For me, the debate on this is two-fold, not only the legality but the controlled usage of any collected data. Obvious, but just to point out.
I am interested in collaborating and/or participating in the panel as well, up to you.
Regards,
Terry
