Better serving members using one social spotMicrosoft
Since its founding nearly 90 years ago, Nationwide has gone from a small auto insurer for farmers to one of the largest insurance and financial services companies in the world. Through it all, one thing has stayed constant: a focus on serving customers, which it considers members of the Nationwide family. Today that members-first policy is supported by Yammer social networking technology, including a SharePoint integration dubbed Spot—as in, the spot to get everything done.
Why today’s businesses need enterprise socialMicrosoft
People today are more connected than ever before. The growth
of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, combined
with the rise of social technologies such as Facebook, Twitter,
and LinkedIn, has turned the world into a global community
that gives users instant access to information, makes it easy
for them to communicate about everything from products to
politics, and facilitates collective action. Technology makes it
easier than ever to tap into the human network.
The Benefits of Enterprise Social for IT ProfessionalsMicrosoft
The world has become a giant network, transformed by the
growth of mobile devices and social technologies. In fact,
there are now more devices than people.1 This networked
world is clearly evident in our personal lives: We keep in
touch with our friends and family on Facebook or Instagram,
use Twitter to get the latest news from people around the
globe, and often find our next career opportunity with
LinkedIn. In this networked world, people connect with each
other easily, information and knowledge move faster, and we
are able to accomplish more by working together.
There are amazing facts and benefits from implementing an Enterprise Social Networking solution. Increased efficiency, higher rate of collaboration, and organization of internal communication are just a couple found through ESN.
In this presentation originally created for DNNcon 2013 (West Palm Beach, FL), Jason Stone of Engage Software covers the Enterprise Social Networking space. What is ESN? Who are some of the key players? What does the research say about the market and its future? He shares some of his own experiences on the team that created iheartDNN.com as well as some from leading the Evoq Social ESN LinkedIn group.

The Evolution of the Intranet: Why Collaborative Intranets are More Critical ...C5 Insight
Collaboration as we know it has changed dramatically over the years. It wasn't that long ago that we had to make a concerted effort to connect with one another; now that same effort is required to disconnect. So why do organizations continue to struggle to connect with employees, customers and partners?
Collaboration tools are both numerous and sophisticated, but are we really better off? If we have the tools, the technology and the will, then why aren't we doing a better job with collaboration in our organizations? In short: Is a company that has a robust Intranet and can truly work together better nothing more than a myth - a lofty goal to which we aspire but will never attain?
In this session, the speaker will tackle these questions and more, taking an in-depth look into why collaboration projects fails to meet our expectations and what organizations can do today to forge new connections, become more productive, increase employee engagement, and build an Intranet that fosters a culture of collaboration.
The 7 Deadly Sins of SharePoint: Planning Successful Implementations and Avoi...C5 Insight
More than 60% of SharePoint projects are stalled, struggling, or failing, according to research conducted by the Association for Information and Image Management. If the goal is enterprise collaboration, it matters most how people connect and remain engaged, not simply how products and platforms function.
This session takes off the gloves and delivers an open discussion of why SharePoint and collaboration projects fail - and how to successfully recover. Better yet, you will learn how to set yourself up for success from the start! Join this session if your organization is contemplating a new project leveraging SharePoint, migrating to a new version of SharePoint, or needs to recover from a problematic implementation.

With 70% of organizations using SharePoint put over a third of all managers and employees agreeing they hate to use it – we recognized the need for a changed approach. This is what we've done with adenin Digital Assistant, the world's first AI-powered workplace assistant that connects to *ALL* existing data sources to answer questions, give relevant updates and execute commands.
Presented by Henry Amm, Director Digital Assistant Program, at adenin TECHNOLOGIES. Intra.Net Reloaded conference Boston, April 2019.
The world is constantly changing at a rapid pace. The impact of these global changes are impacting all facets of the workplace. People, technology and infrastructure are organically changing. Changes include how we communicate, the design of our physical office spaces, where we decide to work from, business tools, technology, social media technology, organizational structure and hierarchy, work/life blending, role of job satisfaction, information access and the generational make-up of our workforces. How organizations manage these interconnected workplace changes will impact their ability to engage their employees.
The key drivers of employee engagement are, always knowing what employees are thinking, intentional creation of a desired culture, recognition and value, open and transparent communication + strong leadership, career pathing and opportunities, social good and positive and real employer branding.
Changing workplaces require a change in how we conduct our day-to-day business. Social Technology is how we successfully and effectively deal with these changes. Social collaboration, social learning, social recognition, access to real-time and useful data, social recruitment and strategic employer branding. Integration of the right social technology tools will positively impact employee engagement. People are social beings, and social technology allows, enables and promotes people to be social in the workplace.
This presentation was delivered on Friday, January 10, 2014 to the delegates who competed at the 9th Annual Organizational Behaviour Case Competition at Ryerson University in Toronto. 10 Canadian business schools attended and competed. This session was meant to inspire, educate and help delegates infuse creative ideas in their presentations the following day.

Truly world-class leaders empower key employees to become
evangelists for the firm on social media platforms, helping
customers, building the brand, attracting talent, and giving
a personal face to the company. In addition to the external
advantages, these key social media leaders become even more
engaged and personally bonded to the company, its mission,
and goals if done correctly. These employees can come from
anywhere in the organization, from interns, to line personnel,
to managers, to product leaders, to executives – but it must
be done correctly and be given the support and attention
necessary to prevent the foray from falling flat.
Social media is well-established as a consumer and brand-
oriented set of tools. Increasingly, social media is being offered as
an innovative solution for internal effectiveness. When strategy
and governance are integrated with social media tools, they
can positively impact your organization. An organization that
thoughtfully embraces social media can realize opportunities
across four areas:

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!

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.

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
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.
