This document contains notes from a presentation by Martin MacDonald on search engine optimization (SEO) best practices. Some key points discussed include removing all copied content and de-indexing anything not of good quality, stopping the practice of buying links, bringing social profiles and communities in-house rather than using external networks, and focusing on engaging content rather than trying to game algorithms or social signals. Martin emphasizes building quality content and links naturally rather than taking "easy" or questionable approaches to SEO.
Writers face many challenges with social networking, especially choosing platforms and applications. This presentation provides an overview to challenges expressed by the All Souls Writers' Group. I hope it will be helpful to other writers, too.

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
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.

29. Why Social Signals are Important

* currently….
30. Why Social Signals are Important
Network Topography
Un-natural social
profiles are ignored by
the search engines as a
ranking factor
62. What's the worst that can happen?
1) You build a network of great contacts
2) You make your web properties more involving and
interactive
3) You improve customer service levels
4) You get free referral traffic from your social profiles
What downside?
63. Key Points
1) No you can NOT carry on using “rubbish” content
2) Stop going for the “easy” link
3) Lets all forget about the “algo”. Lets build good stuff.
4) We shot PageRank. Sorry.
5) Faking social profiles is really quite hard.
6) If you don‟t have your own network, use someone else‟s.
7) Always be on the lookout!
Questions?
64. Best Practices
1) You have to remove all copied content, de-index it etc.
2) Everything spiders see on your site should be good – if it
isnt, then de-index. Everything.
3) Stop buying links off anyone – you can still “make” some
though, as long as its done sensibly.
4) Don‟t even bother trying to game the social system.
5) Bring your community “in house” (or on site)
6) Engage!
Even if you don‟t think its worth it now, it will be in a few
years. Rel Author is a great example of where things are
going….
