On December 4th, 2014, in Breda, the Netherlands, the very first college on iBeacons was helt on the NHTV; the Dutch International College for Tourism and Leisure. Students were introduced and taught the options and possibilities of ibeacons in daily practice and were challenged to pitch a ibeacon app solution for a city in the south of the Netherlands.
The REST API is an awesome plugin to expose your data from the WordPress core. But … the standard implementation might not fit your specific case.
Just like the WordPress core, you'll be able to extend it to your specific needs. I'll show you how to handle authentication, introduce caching strategies, alter custom post types, or even change the default way of communication altogether.
Like many others, WordPress has been my personal blogging tool for a long time. A powerful tool for easy publishing! That is what everyone wants.
Large sites like TechCrunch and TheNextWeb use it exactly for that reason. And more enterprises seem to discover it as good solution to their too-expensive publication tools. But keeping those WordPress instances running requires skills and knowledge.
Because of WordPress extendibility and its very active community, you can do this too. This tutorial will teach you how use Ansible, Composer, WP-CLI, WP REST API, and Elasticsearch can push WordPress from a personal blogging tool into an enterprise-worthy level application. Out with FTP based SCM ... in with automated deployment, dependency management, and utterly fast search.

Teaming up WordPress API with Backbone.js in TitaniumJeroen van Dijk
WordPress is an absolutely powerful platform to publish content, but up till now it lacked the ability to publish and read content using a proper restful API. That is about to change. The new WP-API plugin is slated to be part of the WordPress core creating an easy access layer from a decoupled frontend.
And a mobile app is of course such a decoupled frontend!
This talk will show you how to leverage the power of the WordPress API to build an app in Appcelerator Titanium which uses Backbone.js as it's way of syncing. We'll go through the WP API basics, custom post types, proper API logic and offline strategies for your first app. Connecting the dots into Backbone.js is then a piece of cake!

Presentation done at the Titanium meetup of April 2015, the newbie edition.
In this presentation I showed to the tools that are out there to help you kickstart your Titanium project
There are a lot of tools available that can make developers life easier. Zend Server is one of them. The Zend products have come from a long way, but since the introduction of Zend Server the focus is more on a developers perspective than ever. The integrated tools make debugging, performance tuning, process offloading and deployment really accessible. Even extending it with your own needs is possible nowadays. The current PHP ecosystem gives every developer enormous amounts of power in creating applications without writing a lot of code.
In this talk I will show you how Zend Server can help you understand your own PHP application better, by using its tools to open the blackbox that your PHP application really is. This talk is not about selling Zend Server, but helping developers understand why reconsidering your development stack is always an option. Because in the end every developer likes to be a lazy developer.
You must’ve heard of Unit testing… If not, then this talk is definitely for you! If you do know Unit testing, you probably ran at some point into a hurdle: “Where do I start?” And despite your best efforts, you end up not having enough tests for your application – Then that change request comes in, requiring you to change that very same complex piece of code for which you are lacking tests! How do you going refactor while maintaining all those ‘undocumented’ business rules? This talk will show how Codeception can be leveraged to refactor the visuals aspects of an application, maintaining backwards compatibility on API changes and even assist in moving to a whole different server infrastructure.
Enabling Solr or ElasticSearch in your PHP application isn't that hard these days anymore. There are multiple libraries available which can turn any collection of data into a searchable index making it as accessible as the PHP language itself. But how do you become a pro in creating the right schema, query and data analyzer?
This talk will take the attendee knee deep into the problems we faced in analyzing, faceting, getting the right user experience and of course the relevant results for the second-hand car site AutoTrack where you have to ability to search on more then 200 different attributes of a car! Now you may calculate how many unique different search queries that sums up to…
When high performance on a web application is a hard requirement Varnish can be of rescue. But does it’s name, the high-performance HTTP accelerator, really bring what you expect? What are the caveats, pitfalls and problems you introduce when developing your application when the released version is only able to run when there is a Varnish in front? This session will give you some answers, tips and tricks to aid in application design, development with PHP and solutions when there is no Varnish in front of your application.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
