Abstract
Autonomia senza chiusura: infrastrutture aperte per la resilienza digitale
La dipendenza da piattaforme e filiere software opache sta diventando un rischio sistemico: per la ricerca, per i servizi pubblici, per l’industria e, in ultima analisi, per la fiducia democratica. In questo intervento propongo il concetto di autonomia strategica ecumenica: non isolamento, ma capacità di scelta e continuità ottenute grazie a standard aperti, interoperabilità, pluralità di fornitori e infrastrutture comuni. La resilienza digitale non si costruisce solo con “più sicurezza”, ma con memoria, verificabilità e sostituibilità: sapere cosa eseguiamo, poterlo ricostruire, poter migrare senza perdere conoscenza né controllo. Mostrerò come la preservazione e la tracciabilità del software (e delle sue dipendenze) diventino un pilastro di questa resilienza, abilitando audit, riproducibilità scientifica, gestione del rischio e piani di continuità

Bio
A former student of the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa and holder of a PhD from the University of Pisa, Roberto Di Cosmo is Professor of Computer Science (formerly at the École Normale Supérieure and subsequently at Université Paris Cité, where he directed the doctoral programme from 2004 to 2009) and is currently seconded to Inria. He chairs the Board of Directors and the Scientific Advisory Board of IMDEA Software Institute and the Software chapter of the Comité National pour la Science Ouverte. He has published more than 20 journal articles and over 50 papers in international conference proceedings. In 2007, he created the Free Software thematic group within Systematic Paris-Region, which has helped fund more than 50 collaborative research and development projects on Open Source, with a consolidated budget exceeding €200 million. In 2008, he coordinated the European project Mancoosi (€4.4 million, 10 partners). From 2010 to 2018, he served as Director of IRILL. In 2015, he founded and has since led Software Heritage, in collaboration with UNESCO, with the aim of preserving and making publicly available and citable all public source code.
Abstract
Autonomy without isolation: open infrastructures for digital resilience
Dependence on opaque platforms and software supply chains is becoming a systemic risk: for research, for public services, for industry and, ultimately, for democratic trust. In this talk, I introduce the concept of ecumenical strategic autonomy: not isolation, but the capacity for choice and continuity achieved through open standards, interoperability, a plurality of suppliers, and shared infrastructures. Digital resilience is not built solely through “more security”, but through memory, verifiability and substitutability: knowing what we run, being able to rebuild it, and being able to migrate without losing knowledge or control. I will show how the preservation and traceability of software (and its dependencies) become a cornerstone of this resilience, enabling auditability, scientific reproducibility, risk management and business continuity planning.
