Five 'Must Ask' Questions When Considering a Cloud Services Brokerage Busines...jamcracker4677
The first step in considering a Cloud Services Brokerage (CSB) model for your business or IT needs is to understand and formulate the business model. This informative webinar addresses 5 key questions to consider when developing your CSB business case:
Business Case Justification: Whom will I be operating the CSB for (e.g. Internal users, External customers and channels, or both) and what business issues should I be focusing on?
Economic Model: What are the revenue gains and/or cost savings metrics and target results I should expect to achieve with a CSB?
Vendor Management: How do I manage varying contracts, SLAs and integrations with disparate Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) being delivered via my CSB?
Operating Model: What's the best approach for my organization in deploying and operating a CSB as well as supporting my users?
Risk Mitigation: What are the business and technical risks with the CSB model, and how can I best mitigate them?

Master thesis presentation on 'Cloud Service Broker' Carlos Gonçalves
Throughout the history of computer systems, experts have been reshaping IT infrastructure for improving the efficiency of organizations by enabling shared access to computational resources. The advent of cloud computing has sparked a new paradigm providing better hosting and service delivery over the Internet. It offers advantages over traditional solutions by providing ubiquitous, scalable and on-demand access to shared pools of computational resources.
Over the course of these last years, we have seen new market players offering cloud services at competitive prices and different Service Level Agreements. With the unprecedented increasing adoption of cloud computing, cloud providers are on the look out for the creation and offering of new and value-added services towards their customers. Market competitiveness, numerous service options and business models led to gradual entropy. Mismatching cloud terminology got introduced and incompatible APIs locked-in users to specific cloud service providers. Billing and charging become fragmented when consuming cloud services from multiple vendors. An entity recommend- ing cloud providers and acting as an intermediary between the cloud consumer and providers would harmonize this interaction.
This dissertation proposes and implements a Cloud Service Broker focusing on assisting and encouraging developers for running their applications on the cloud. Developers can easily describe their applications, where an intelligent algorithm will be able to recommend cloud offerings that better suit application requirements. In this way, users are aided in deploying, managing, monitoring and migrating their applications in a cloud of clouds. A single API is required for orchestrating the whole process in tandem with truly decoupled cloud managers. Users can also interact with the Cloud Service Broker through a Web portal, a command-line interface, and client libraries.

Learn more about the cloud services brokerage (CSB) opportunity and how to enable your organization to become a CSB. You'll also hear examples of real-world customers that have adopted the CSB model for their SMB and enterprise customers as part of their cloud services value chain strategy.

The Ultimate Guide to Cloud Migration - A Whitepaper by RapidValueRapidValue
Digital transformation based on cloud-first strategy is a marathon. Any transformation journey which is disruptive and requires changing the core foundation of the organization can be very challenging. It is bound to fail unless the journey is planned with specific goals in mind, right roles and resources allocated to it, ‘as-is’ to ‘to-be state’ is mapped and implementation engine is fine-tuned.
Based on the experience of implementing numerous transformation projects for our global clients, RapidValue has formulated a BRAVE framework for cloud-first digital transformation.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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.

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).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

As infrastructures a service, you can imagine that there’s quite a bit of services and or additional things that can be tacked on top of this offering. If you think about it in laymen's terms, think about your laptop. If you simply had the hardware and didn’t have anything else on top of it, what opportunities could you do with that particular infrastructure? You could install Microsoft office on it and create your Power Point slides, you could put Lotus Notes on it and collaborate with your team mates. There’s also all sorts of services that you could execute with that infrastructure. We talked about some of the use cases and things like that. But from a business partners perspective, let’s look at the types of services that they could offer to their customers who are interested in using this service. So we’ve got the straight up resale offering that we like to position as a great competitive advantage over some of our competition but we’ve also got additional services that we can resell on top of it. In the left hand side of the slide we’ve got some stars next to business continuity, while we’re talking about backup and resiliency. We’ve got security services that we can tack on top of and encourage those services to be resold at the partner level. But we also like to really encourage the business partners to really start building their own services offerings around this platform. So strategy services, migration, whether or not they are ready, their application is ready for cloud environment, assessments, implementation of actual migration networking, software licensing, management and instant image management. Those are some of those things that in addition to having residual income at the resell level we like to encourage these customers and business partners to look at this as building their own recurring and/or one time services built on top of the infrastructure.
There are a number of key areas where we're actually defining entirely new markets. We're investing in our cloud portfolio in these key areas to take our clients to the next level. These includes the cloud enabled services that make up our Smarter Commerce and Social Business solutions, as well as emerging opportunities in analytics enabled by the cloud. Briefly define each space: Smarter Commerce: Is about improving the processes associated in commerce- buying, selling, marketing, services- by acting on insights generated through mobile and social commerce. It is about helping clients become more efficient and effective, improving margins, and creating new revenue streams. Social Business: The way people work is changing. Collaboration within and outside of your organization is no longer a nice-to-have, it's a necessity. Cloud technology makes it possible for users to collabrate within and across company firewalls, and simplifies and improves daily business interactions. According to an IDC Survey ("IDC North American Cloud Survey" - Robert Mahowald, January 2011), 'After email, with 58% saying they'd be using a cloud solution of some type in the next 24 months, overall collaboration was the second most important workload, with 48% saying they'd be looking to build out an internal cloud, or use a public solution.‘ BAO: Analytics is the key to making both of these- and many other spaces- work. BAO is the process that enables our clients to turn oceans of data into predictive models and actionable decisions. These cloud-enabled capabilities allow our clients to optimize the people and processes within their organizations, use insights to drive smarter decisions, and instrument and maximize their assets. We’re also defining new industry solutions cloud services, which enable industry-specific outcomes for our clients. A great example there is around Smarter Cities, which I’ll talk about shortly. Let's take a closer look at one of these spaces and the cloud-enabled services.
