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).

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
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.

3. The Origin of Chinese New Year
In terms of the Chinese calendar:
The Chinese New Year is now
popularly known as the Spring
Festival because it starts from the
beginning of Spring.
4. All agree that the word “Nian”, which
in modern Chinese solely means
“year”, was originally the name of a
monster beast that started to prey
on people the night before the
beginning of a new year.
5. Legend
•
One legend goes that the beast Nian had
a very big mouth that would swallow a
great many people with one bite. People
were very scared. One day, an old man
came to their rescue, offering to subdue
Nian.
6. Legend
•
To Nian he said, “I hear say that you are
very capable, but can you swallow the
other beasts of prey on earth instead of
people who are by no means of your
worthy opponents?” So, it did swallow
many of the beasts of prey on earth that
also harassed people and their domestic
animals from time to time.
7. Legend
•
After that, the old man disappeared
riding the beast Nian. He turned out to
be an immortal god. Now that Nian is
gone and other beasts of prey are also
scared into forests, people begin to
enjoy their peaceful life.
8. Legend
•
Before the old man left, he had told
people to put up red paper decorations
on their windows and doors at each
year’s end to scare away Nian in case it
sneaked back again, because red is the
color the beast feared the most.
9. Legend
•
From then on, the tradition of observing
the conquest of Nian is carried on from
generation to generation. The term “Guo
Nian”, which may mean “Survive the
Nian” becomes today “Celebrate the
(New) Year” as the word “guo”in Chinese
having both the meaning of “pass-over”
and “observe”.
10. •
•
The custom of putting up red paper and
firing fire-crackers is to scare away Nian.
However, people today have long
forgotten why they are doing all this,
except that they feel the color and the
sound add to the excitement of the
celebration.
11. Traditions of Chinese New Year
•
•
Days before the New Year:
Every family is busy giving its house a
thorough cleaning, hoping to sweep
away all the ill-fortune there may have
been in the family to make way for the
wishful in-coming good luck.
12. •
Traditions of Chinese New Year
People also give their doors and windowpanes a new paint, usually in red color.
They decorate the doors and windows
with paper-cuts and couplets with the very
popular theme of 'happiness', 'wealth',
'longevity' and 'satisfactory marriage with
more children'. Paintings of the same
theme are put up in the house on top of
the newly mounted wall paper.
14. The Eve of the New Year
•
Supper is a feast, with all
members coming together.
One of the most popular
courses is jiaozi,
dumplings boiled in water.
‘jiaozi' in Chinese literally
means a long-lost good
wish for a family.
16. The Eve of the New Year
•
After dinner, it is time for the whole
family to sit up for the night while
having fun playing cards or board
games or watching TV programs
dedicated to the occasion.
17. Very early the next morning
Children greet their parents and
receive their presents in terms
of cash wrapped up in red paper
packages from them. Then, the
families start out to say
greetings from door to door,
first their relatives and then
their neighbors. The air is
permeated with warmth and
friendliness.
18. Several days following the New Year's day
People are visiting each
other,with a great deal of
exchange of gifts. The New
Year atmosphere is brought
to an anti-climax fifteen days
away where the Festival of
Lanterns sets in.
19. Lantern festival: the end of New Year celebrations
The fifteenth day of the new year is celebrated as Yuánxiāo jié
( 元宵节 )
Rice dumplings , sweet glutinous rice ball brewed in a soup,
is eaten this day.
Candles are lit outside houses as a way to guide wayward
spirits home.
This day is celebrated as the Lantern Festival,
and families walk the street carrying lighted lanterns.
This day often marks the end of the Chinese New Year
festivities.
