This document summarizes Accenture's journey to becoming a passwordless enterprise. It discusses how passwords present security risks and financial burdens. Accenture partnered with Microsoft to use passwordless authentication solutions like Windows Hello, the Microsoft Authenticator app, and FIDO2 tokens. This removed the need for passwords but required identifying all applications, enabling solutions, and gaining user adoption through communication. Accenture has now enabled over 500,000 users with passwordless methods and sees benefits like faster login times and improved security. The full transition remains a goal as legacy systems still require passwords.

Better managers, better business - a thought paperPete Fullard
We’re all in business and we’re all constantly searching for the same thing. Something magical with the power to create profit without changing our products, services or customers.
The good news is that I’ve found it! And it may not be quite what you were expecting. It’s been around longer than any technology. It requires no market intelligence. And there’s not a hashtag or emoji in sight! Even better, is that there’s a simple three-step plan to harness it. Or should I say ‘them’.
Because the opportunity is to be found in our people. Particularly our managers who have the ability to take our culture, our people and our performance to new levels. Like all the greatest opportunities, it has been caused by change. People like us who are running businesses are (on average) getting older. Yet, in Asia, seventy percent of employees are Millennials. Elsewhere in the world that number is over thirty percent. Between them and the directors who pay their wages lies a huge gulf in culture, expectations and values.
The ‘C’ suite within so many businesses remains linear and traditional. They have grown-up in a world where the numbers come first, and the culture comes a distant second at best. Employees, on the other hand, are more agile and value-led. They choose to work in ethical, progressive and consultative environments. They are uninspired by the ‘same old’ approach to HR, training and culture. They are desperate to find something newer, better and more empathetic and they are willing to move jobs to find it.
This presents an incredible opportunity. The vast majority of businesses are not bridging the culture gap. They have focused on what their customers want, without making a similar adjustment to the ever-changing needs of their employees. This is so easy to change. Many great businesses have already done it. The majority are run by Millennials. They recognise that, even in the age of technology, people remain our greatest asset, and can produce the greatest returns of all. Each has delivered on these three simple steps:
• They have a clear corporate vision embracing everything they do
• With an agility that allows their people to flourish
• And an empathy that allows them to embrace, not repel, their people
In that setting, managers can be empowered to motivate and engage. We can help those who are more experienced develop more current skills through coaching and mentoring rather than box-ticking and lecturing. They, in turn, can harness the talent within our Millennial and Generation Z workforce. Investing in a new app may be sexier, but developing our people will have a much deeper and more meaningful impact on the bottom line.
I really hope this thought piece is different. It addresses fundamental issues that are holding back so many businesses and presents a better way forward.

This DBaaS landscape is rapidly evolving and the DBaaS products differ in their features but also their price and performance capabilities. In consequence, selecting the optimal DBaaS provider for the customer needs becomes a challenge, especially for performance-critical applications.
To enable an on-demand comparison of the DBaaS landscape we present the benchANT DBaaS Navigator, an open DBaaS comparison platform for management and deployment features, costs, and performance. The DBaaS Navigator is an open data platform that enables the comparison of over 20 DBaaS providers for the relational and NoSQL databases.
This talk will provide a brief overview of the benchmarked categories with a focus on the technical categories such as price/performance for NoSQL DBaaS and how ScyllaDB Cloud is performing.

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

What do young people want in a job?
They want what young people have
always wanted: good pay, stability,
opportunity. But increasingly, they also
want to work in the green economy.
Whether it’s helping economies transition
to cleaner transportation or enabling the
region to decarbonize, young people
want to solve the biggest environmental
challenges facing their generation.
4. The idea of working toward a more sustainable environment has great appeal to young people all over
the world. And young people in APAC are leading the way.

Although 32.6 million green jobs over the
next 10 years sounds impressive, this
number still falls short of the high demand
from the region’s 665 million young
people active in the labor force in 2020.
What can companies do as the demand
for—and supply of—green jobs
continue to grow?
They need to start acting now to design
the jobs that will attract motivated, young
people with a variety of skill levels.

future’s sake.

8. Flipthescript—for
yourfuture’ssake
The best of Asia Pacific’s young will see
through any efforts that don’t go beyond
rebranding: green change initiatives must
be both genuine, and boldly
transformational.
To show that they are committed to a
green economy transition, companies
should focus on two strategic priorities:
1. Create new green businesses that are
decoupled from legacy businesses.
2. Build internal capabilities for
sustainability across all business
divisions.

9. Deliberatelydesign
“greencollar”jobsto
sparkinnovation
Today’s sustainability challenges demand fresh,
hybrid solutions. To build these solutions faster,
companies can bring in a mosaic of talent
profiles into new types of teams by:
1. Seeking out expertise will be required in
unusual combinations such as chemical
engineering-plus-innovation and climate
science-plus-AI.
2. Granting creative freedom to innovators
while supplying them with the latest
instruments, such as advanced data
platforms, analytical tools and
new technologies.
02
10. Makeeveryone
partofthegreen
transition
Industries such as construction and
manufacturing—where we estimate 76 percent of
the new green jobs to be created—will have a large
proportion of entry-level roles that require
vocational qualifications. Companies should see
this as an opportunity and take three actions:
1. Invest in baseline training programs that
certify incoming semi-skilled or unskilled
workers and establish on-the-job “upskilling”
and specialization pathways for employees.
2. Open entry-level employment paths
through academic and vocational
institution alliances.
3. Create exchange and rotation programs
between legacy and new business lines.
03
12. Business leaders need to ask themselves three key questions
as they pursue a place in the green economy.
Corporate
practices now
Appoint a Chief
Sustainability Officer.
Double down on
active stakeholder
engagement campaigns.
Set ambitious talent
diversity targets.
What boards
want to
know next
A dedicated Chief
Sustainability Officer is a
good start, but not the step-
change we need.
What are we doing to
ensure that our actions do
not run the risk of
“greenwashing”?
Signaling commitment to
more sustainable growth that
benefits all stakeholders is a
good start, but we need to also
keep our promises.
How will we tangibly
measure our non-financial
performance (i.e.,
Environmental, Social,
Governance, and other
dimensions)?
Talent diversity targets are now a
baseline expectation. We need new
job-related targets.
How will we create new “green
collar” jobs, needed to attract
aspiring young people? And how
will we ensure that our existing
talent can succeed in the green
economy of the future?
