analysis, run-time monitoring and support<br />

for compliance analysis. Such techniques<br />

complement one another as they are applicable<br />

at different phases of development<br />

and deployment. Program analysis helps<br />

enforce secure programming practices;<br />

automated testing enables the detection of<br />

vulnerabilities before deployment, and runtime<br />

monitoring helps ensure the compliance<br />

of system usage to access control<br />

policies and business processes.<br />

What type of FinTech organisations<br />

can start a partner project with SnT’s<br />

SVV lab?<br />

The answer is very simple: any organization<br />

that needs to have strong guarantees<br />

about securing the data handled by its IT<br />

systems and their compliance with regulations.<br />

In the future, FinTech providers will<br />

be subject to increasing pressure to<br />

demonstrate due diligence in ensuring the<br />

protection of financial and personal data.<br />

Innovative and cost-effective techniques<br />

will be required. Recent reports of highprofile<br />

security breaches appearing in the<br />

media as well as our own experience show<br />

that many systems, including those in the<br />

FinTech area, remain vulnerable. By investing<br />

in a partnership project with SVV, the<br />

financial and legal risks of security breaches<br />

can be minimized.<br />

Can you give us examples of R&D<br />

success stories where SVV has had a<br />

demonstrated impact on partners in<br />

the area of secure data management?<br />

For a leading card transaction company, we<br />

have managed, through innovative automated<br />

security testing technologies, to find<br />

vulnerabilities in both its firewall and web<br />

services. For another company providing<br />

mission-critical web services, we have successfully<br />

developed automated solutions for<br />

the automated testing of access control<br />

mechanisms and the specification as well as<br />

run-time verification of complex access<br />

control policies. In the domain of<br />

eGovernment systems, we focus on legal<br />

and regulatory compliance through the<br />

modelling of the law and the run-time verification<br />

of business processes.<br />

SnT, FinTech Gazette - January 2016<br />

Pendant longtemps, les entreprises du secteur<br />

de l’énergie se sont partagées la confiance<br />

des investisseurs. Avant elles, il y avait l’industrie<br />

mais dorénavant, il faut compter avec<br />

les géants du numérique. Apple a connu un<br />

règne de quatre ans sur la première place du<br />

podium boursier avec une capitalisation de<br />

534,7 milliards de dollars. Cependant son<br />

PDG, Tim Cook avait avoué que les ventes de<br />

l’iPhone - qui représentent à elles-seules<br />

deux tiers du chiffre d’affaire d’Apple - risquaient<br />

de reculer.<br />

Google qui s’est structuré sous la forme d’une<br />

Holding en adoptant le nom d’Alphabet<br />

compte un capital boursier de 559 milliards<br />

de dollars et un chiffre d’affaires de 74,9 milliards<br />

en 2015, soit une augmentation de<br />

17,8% en un an. Le bénéfice net d’Alphabet<br />

est de 4,923 milliards.<br />

Google n’a pas vingt ans et compte 30.000<br />

visites par seconde. En réussissant sa transition<br />

mobile, il peut dorénavant s’appuyer sur<br />

les revenus publicitaires que ses applications<br />

(Gmail, Google Mapp, Youtube, …) engendrent<br />

et elles sont les plus téléchargées au<br />

monde! S’il s’est restructuré, c’est pour mieux<br />

limiter les risques de pertes de ses investissements.<br />

La voiture autonome, l’internet par<br />

montgolfière, les biotechnologies ou le premier<br />

cerveau électronique sont en effet autant<br />

promis à un bel avenir qu’à des pertes colossales<br />

en cas d’échec.<br />

Google et Apple pèsent aussi lourd que toutes<br />

les entreprises du CAC 40 réunies. Et<br />

puisqu’en technologie, rien n’est acquis,<br />

Facebook pourrait très prochainement, lui<br />

ravir la place.<br />
