Technology: The next 15 years
What is happening in the world of technology? What can we expect to see in the next 15 years? Chris Chirgwin, CEO of Lanspeed, will walk you through it.
The History Of The Internet
The Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET) was created by the United States Department of Defense during the Cold War to connect research computers. The first email was sent in 1971 between two connected machines through ARPANET. Modern computers are millions to billions of times more capable than early machines due to integrated circuits allowing them to be much smaller in size.
The big digital bang
The document discusses two major digital discoveries: the microchip and the internet. It describes how Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit or microchip in 1958 at Texas Instruments, comprising a transistor and components on a slice of germanium. The microchip revolutionized electronics and is now at the heart of many devices like computers, phones, and microwaves. It also outlines how the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) was established in 1958 to give the US a technological edge, and one goal was computer science. Engineers eventually connected ARPA's network to the packet radio network in 1976, allowing computers to connect through radio waves instead of phone lines, helping launch the internet.
Future icjia 201302
The document discusses predictions about technology from the past that turned out to be incorrect and goes on to predict that by 2020 technology innovation will drive operational innovation in law enforcement through smarter phones that integrate functions like cameras, GPS navigation, and predictive analytics to assist with justice-related tasks.
Timeline history of internet
Samuel Morse developed Morse code in the 1830s to transmit messages over the telegraph. In 1843, he built the first successful telegraph system between Washington D.C. and Baltimore. In 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, the world's first artificial satellite, ushering in new technological developments. In 1976, Queen Elizabeth sent the first royal email during a demonstration of ARPANET network technology at the UK's Royal Signals and Radar Establishment. TCP/IP was developed in the 1980s as the standard protocol for data communication over networks like the Internet.
Activity 10 timeline history of internet
The document outlines the history and development of the Internet and telecommunications from 1836 to 1997. Some of the key events include the invention of the telegraph in 1836, the laying of the first transatlantic cable in 1858 allowing direct communication across the Atlantic, the introduction of telephones in 1876, the development of packet switching networks in the 1960s which helped enable ARPANET and the birth of the Internet in 1969, and the introduction of technologies like email, Ethernet, TCP/IP, and browsers which helped the Internet grow and become commercialized in the 1990s.
It Curriculum Development By Prof Rattan K Datta
The document discusses the rapid changes in technology and proposes a dynamic curriculum model to prepare students. It outlines 3 laws of technology - Moore's law on processing power doubling every 18 months, Gilder's law on bandwidth tripling yearly, and Metcalfe's law on network value increasing with nodes. These laws are converging, with technology becoming more integrated and ubiquitous. The author proposes a 4th law on prioritizing ethics during development. A dynamic 8-semester curriculum is suggested with evolving specializations to keep up with emerging areas and chaotic growth while safeguarding values.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
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.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
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.

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).
