Kill Administrator: Fighting Back Against Admin RightsScriptLogic
We’re not talking about killing the Administrator. That would be you, and that would be wrong. Rather, it’s time we eliminated the role of Administrator from our Windows servers and desktops.
Administrator privileges are Windows’ necessary evil. Why? Standard Windows user rights just aren’t powerful enough to accomplish many needed tasks, so users demand elevated rights for everything. That’s the problem with Administrator: You either have it or you don’t.
With a new approach to delegating administrative privileges, you can granularly elevate privileges in applications and the operating system. Windows itself has such a solution in its built-in AppLocker functionality. AppLocker is a good tool to whitelist apps you’ve approved to run, but it isn’t without its shortfalls.
Join Concentrated Technology’s Greg Shields and ScriptLogic’s Nick Calavancia as they compare the AppLocker approach with ScriptLogic’s Privilege Authority product. You’ll find that finding the right balance requires the right set of tools.
In this webinar, we will cover:
1. Getting to least privilege – killing admin rights
2. Administrative granularity – balancing lockdown with productivity
3. Lockdown rules that work
IRJET- An Efficient Hardware-Oriented Runtime Approach for Stack-Based Softwa...IRJET Journal
This document discusses an efficient hardware-oriented runtime approach for detecting stack-based buffer overflow attacks during program execution. The approach automatically archives and compares the original and modified information of static variables in the program to detect any changes from the compiler-generated object code. This is done transparently to programmers without requiring any source code modifications. By leveraging the hardware of the CPU pipeline, the approach can identify buffer overflows during runtime to prevent security vulnerabilities from being exploited. The approach aims to provide protections against runtime attacks while having low performance and memory overhead.
The document discusses various concepts related to user interface (UI) design including UI architecture, design patterns, and principles. It covers topics such as the definition of a UI, common UI elements like windows and icons, levels of UI design, steps in the design process, common design models, concepts like simplicity and customization, and design patterns like MVC, MVP, and MVVM. The goal of UI design is to create an interface that is intuitive for users to interact with a software system through tasks like inputting and viewing output.

It describes how computing systems have evolved from manual management to include increasingly automated functions.
This document outlines 10 key areas to focus on when starting a DevOps journey: 1) virtualization, 2) operating systems, 3) databases, 4) cloud computing, 5) monitoring and alerting, 6) configuration management, 7) continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD), 8) log management, 9) web/application servers, and 10) project management tools. Each area provides a brief definition and recommendations for tools to learn, such as virtualization platforms like VMware, configuration management tools like Chef and Puppet, and project management tools like Confluence. The document aims to help readers assess their readiness and identify additional skills needed to begin their DevOps journey.
DevOps is a methodology capturing the practices adopted from the very start by the web giants who had a unique opportunity as well as a strong requirement to invent new ways of working due to the very nature of their business: the need to evolve their systems at an unprecedented pace as well as extend them and their business sometimes on a daily basis.
While DevOps makes obviously a critical sense for startups, I believe that the big corporations with large and old-fashioned IT departments are actually the ones that can benefit the most from adopting these principles and practices.

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.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
