    Zorz Jan: ISOC - Operational Engagement Programme Manager. Jan Žorž started his professional career in RS-232/VAX VMS world in 1992 and continued through Novell and Windows environments all the way to Solaris and other UNIX derivatives that today represent the native environment for the majority of his projects. Jan is the Internet Society's Operational Engagement Programme Manager. He works on operational initiatives to ease the deployment of IPv6 and other technologies. He is also working to help the industry document best-current operational practices and to improve operator feedback to the IETF.
    Jan is one of the pioneers of SiOL, the Slovenian national ISP, and has been involved in the organization from the beginning. Among other activities, he began experimenting in 1997 with Internet streaming multimedia content. Based on these experiments, he successfully accomplished projects such as "Dhaulagiri '99 Live" (an Internet multimedia transmission of Tomaz Humar's solo climb of the south wall of Dhaulagiri (called Death Zone in the Himalayas), "Ski Everest Live 2000" (an Internet live-video transmission and monitoring of extreme skiing from the summit of Mt. Everest by Davo Karnicar) and other similar projects. Together with two other members of the team "Dhaulagiri '99 Live", Jan received a media award/statue "Victor" for special achievement.
    For the last seven years, Jan has been working as a consultant in the IT field, specializing in IPv6. He co-founded the Go6 institute (not-for-profit), a Slovenian IPv6 initiative whose main objective is to raise IPv6 awareness in Slovenia and alert the community to the fact that we are approaching extensive changes on the Internet.
    Due to the success of Go6 Institute, Slovenia is currently leading the EU as the country most prepared for IPv6 (according to the RIPE NCC's IPv6 RIPEness study). Jan has been invited to present around the world on his work, the model of the Go6 platform, IPv6 awareness raising and deployment at the national level. These speaking engagements have included conferences such as RIPE Meetings, Google IPv6 Implementors Conference 2010, Internet Governance Forum meetings, OECD meeting, World IPv6 Congresses (Paris and London), as well as national forums in Germany, Greece, Norway, Macedonia, Oman, Brazil and many others.
    Jan is also primary co-author of a very successful procurement (specification) paper, published as official RIPE Best Current Practice document RIPE-501, titled "Requirements For IPv6 in ICT Equipment". This document is translated into more than 10 languages and is used around the world by enterprises and governments when requesting IPv6 features in ICT equipment purchases. RIPE-501 was recently replaced by RIPE-554, also co-authored by Merike Kaeo, Sander Steffann and Jan Žorž.
    Jan is based in Škofja Loka, Slovenia (EU).

     

    Andy De Petter Head of Cyber Security Intelligence & Incident Response .

    Andy De Petter has been working over 18 years for the Proximus Group, primarily in the domain of Cyber Security. Initially he was part of the small engineering team for Belgacom Skynet, at the time the largest Internet Service Provider in Belgium. Back then, the team was responsible for end-to-end coverage of the services being provided – from web hosting services, dns, radius, e-mail up to the physical infrastructure in the data center. In 2003, the ISP activities were fully absorbed by the Belgacom Group, where a lot of new services had to be developed and integrated. Because of his extended knowledge on Internet protocols, Andy was designated lead architect for the creation of a cloud-based mail security solution for Enterprise customers – a service which is still running today.

    In 2009, Andy became the head of Corporate Network & Security – where he was responsible for the perimeter security infrastructure of the entire Proximus Group. During the years in this position, he came in contact with various technologies in major environments – where his passion for Cyber Security only kept growing. It was also in 2009 that he created a Cyber Security Incident Response Team within Proximus, in order to structurally respond to cyber security incidents.

    That initiative has kept growing over the last years – and Andy was involved intensively in forensic analysis of APT incidents, data breaches, incident response and threat intelligence. Since early 2014, these activities have been further formalized, where Andy is now leading the Cyber Defense Center, Intelligence and Incident Response teams.

    Since 2008, Andy is also chairing European working groups around Cyber Security – covering both Information Security as emergency response team initiatives. As the head of the CSIRT at Proximus Group, he is also actively participating in working groups with industry, government and law enforcement agencies. Andy is certified ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer, CISSP, CISM, GCFE, GCFA, C|HFI and SABSA Chartered Architect.

    Agenda

    Speakers will provide different views on the impact of CGN on the IPv6 transition. They will explore different alternatives solutions, from different perspectives: from that of a Regional Internet Registry (APNIC), from a large ISP (Proximus),  from ICT representative from Kenya (KICTANet), the perspective of the technical community (Jan Zorz ISOC), the regulator (Belgian Regulator BIPT) and from the law enforcement community (Europol).

    To kick start the discussion, the case example of Belgium will be presented. In this country the telecom regulator concluded a voluntary agreement with the 4 biggest ISPs in 2012 for them to limit the use of CGN. This led to the unintended positive consequence that major Belgium-based ISPs have made strategic business decision to transition quickly to IPv6. As a result, today Belgium has the highest IPv6 adoption rate in the world.
