The Software Defined Enterprise - Innovating and disrupting IT in businessAmcom
It’s time to ride the software wave – for too long IT organisations have been hamstrung and spread thin by having to manage the infrastructure and applications, rather being able to focus on delivering the benefits that the business demands. During this presentation, Brett Looney explores why we (as IT professionals) should be thinking about driving everything we do with software innovation; how that relates to the cloud (and why Brett hates that word); and what the path forward is.
Presented by Brett Looney (Head of Innovation - Amcom) at the WA IT Leaders Summit 2014 (http://www.biaust.com.au/wa-it-summit/), at the AWS Summit 2014 Perth (http://aws.amazon.com/aws-summit-2014/perth/), and also at Cisco Live Melbourne 2015 (https://www.ciscoliveaustralia.com/connect/sessionDetail.ww?SESSION_ID=3875&tclass=popup).
With the aim of helping organizations realize the software-defined enterprise, EMC, Pivotal, RSA and VMware form a unique federation of strategically aligned businesses, who are focused and free to execute on their individual missions.
The Federation’s unique structure—aligned, strategically focused, and free to execute together or as independent companies—provides unparalleled benefits for customers. And the Federation’s continued re-investment and returns to shareholders are a proven formula for ongoing value creation.

Presentation by Ivan Slavich at Trappers Motor Inn, Goulburn, April 2015
Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) is the next evolution of the underlying technology, where software delivers greater levels of intelligence and value, on top of standardized hardware.
Virtualization to Cloud with SDDC Operations Management and Service ProvisioningVMware
IT as a Service (ITaaS) is a journey, not a one-time implementation. This presentation shows how, over time and with expanded adoption, VMware's customers are becoming more virtualized and decreasing costs with greater ROI.
Software Defined anything (SDx) is a movement toward promoting a greater role for software systems in controlling different kinds of hardware - more specifically, making software more "in command" of multi-piece hardware systems and allowing for software control of a greater range of devices.

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
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.

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.

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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
