Secure Electron Adapter (SEA) CONTRIBUTION
The Secure Electron Adapter (SEA) was contributed to FINOS by FINOS member ChartIQ a couple of weeks ago. SEA provides an easy way to secure applications running in Electron - a container for building desktop applications with web technology - making its use appropriate for financial institutions. It acts as a firewall, intermediating API calls within a permission structure that mitigates the risk of running third party content in a desktop container. If you were unable to attend the FINOS Virtual "Meetup" on SEA this week, here are the links to Kris West and Ian Mesner's video and slides about "How to Secure the Electron Container for Capital Markets."
EPAM GLUE
FINOS member EPAM announced their intention to contribute a new project to FINOS, EPAM GLUE, focused on delivering a unified entity and data model for the buy side. Below are links to an announcement to the FINOS Community, and then the video, slides, and podcast from the FINOS Virtual "Meetup" we conducted with Heiko Sundermann, VP & Head of Digital Engagement Practice for Wealth and Asset Management.
