Trusted position and time @ your smart device: Jörg Hahn at TEDxBarcelona

Can we trust the time and position information provided by our smartphone? Jörg Hahn explains us that this information can be spoofed easily. He asks for secure time and location information not only to eliminate this risk but also to offer additional services like e.g. digitally signatures including time and location.

Jörg Hahn is the System Engineering Manager for the European satellite navigation system Galileo (European Space Agency). He is also investigating future needs of the society in location based service features.He is supporting the EC on technical and managerial matters. Jörg is a member of the Scientific Committee of the European Frequency and Time Forum (EFTF ) and of the GPS World Advisory Board. Together with colleagues he gives Galileo Tutorials occasionally, e.g. for NavTech GPS.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
