swampUP - 2018 - The Divine and Felonious Nature of Cyber SecurityJohn Willis
The document discusses the divine and felonious nature of cyber security and introduces the concept of DevSecOps. It notes that traditional perimeter-based security is no longer sufficient given changes in applications and infrastructure. DevSecOps integrates security practices like training, requirements, threat modeling directly into the development pipeline from the beginning. This helps automate security testing and monitoring throughout the software development lifecycle and supply chain. When done right, DevSecOps helps create a "new Goldilocks zone" where security is no longer a bottleneck to rapid software development and deployment.
Shruthi Kamath gave an introduction to Mod Security, an open-source web application firewall. She discussed what a WAF is and how it protects web servers from attacks. Mod Security was originally an Apache module but can now be used on other platforms like IIS and Nginx. It uses rule-based filtering to monitor and log HTTP traffic. Kamath provided examples of Mod Security rules and demonstrated how to install, configure, and set up rules for Mod Security on an Apache server.

Open Source Security at Scale- The DevOps Challenge WhiteSource
It’s no secret that open source components form the backbone of today’s software, comprising between 60-80% of modern applications. But with this, comes the alarming rise in open source vulnerabilities – more than 3,500 open source vulnerabilities were reported in 2017 – that’s 60% higher than the previous year, and the trend continued in 2018.
The question arises: how can DevOps teams ensure a visible and continuous delivery pipeline for software releases without letting security slow them down?
Join WhiteSource’s Product Manager, Shiri Ivtsan, as she discusses:
- The current state of open source vulnerabilities management;
- The latest innovations in the open source security world; and
- The best DevOps tools to protect organizations against open source vulnerabilities and ensure agility, visibility and control regarding their open source.
Containers have been crucial in helping organizations orchestrate their infrastructure requirements. The scalability and reproducibility aspects of containerized environments have enabled applications and web components to be deployed seamlessly in the cloud. While containers have multiple benefits, they also come with distinct security issues, resulting in attackers gaining access to the container, the host, and eventually the data. The first step towards implementing Container Runtime Security is to understand the current threat scenarios and adversary trends affecting the cloud containers. To aptly evaluate the container threat landscape in any environment, an attack matrix should be formulated to ensure that relevant techniques and tactic are identified for every attack stage.
The ATT&CK framework from MITRE has been a go-to framework to formulate a threat matrix, identify an adversary’s tactics and methods/techniques used to attain their end game of privilege escalation or data exfiltration. This presentation is targeted towards:
Today’s container runtime security landscape
Apply ATT&CK methodology on the container runtime environment
Provide a practical approach towards attack surface, scenarios, and attack trends

Characteristics of Defective Infrastructure as Code Scripts in Continuous Dep...Akond Rahman
Defects in infrastructure as code (IaC) scripts can have serious
consequences for organizations who adopt DevOps. By identifying which characteristics of IaC scripts correlate with defects, we can identify anti-patterns, and help software practitioners make informed decisions on better development and maintenance of IaC scripts, and increase quality of IaC scripts. The goal of this paper is to help practitioners increase the quality of IaC scripts by identifying characteristics of IaC scripts and IaC development process that correlate with defects, and violate security and privacy objectives. We focus on characteristics of IaC scripts and IaC development that (i) correlate with IaC defects, and (ii) violate security and privacy-related objectives namely, confidentiality, availability, and integrity. For our initial studies, we mined open source version control systems from three organizations: Mozilla, Openstack, and Wikimedia, to identify the defect-related characteristics and conduct our case studies. From our empirical analysis, we identify (i) 14 IaC code and four churn characteristics that correlate with defects; and (ii) 12 process characteristics such as, frequency of changes, and ownership of IaC scripts that correlate with defects.

Curiosity and Xray present - In sprint testing: Aligning tests and teams to r...Curiosity Software Ireland
This webinar was co-hosted by Xray and Curiosity Software on 18th May 2021. Watch the on demand recording here: https://opentestingplatform.curiositysoftware.ie/xray-in-sprint-testing-webinar
In-sprint testing must tackle three pressing problems:
1. You must know exactly what needs testing before each release. There’s not time to test everything.
2. You need up-to-date and aligned test assets, including test cases, data, scripts and CI/CD artefacts.
3. Test teams must know what needs testing, when, and have on demand access to environments, tests and data.
These problems are near-impossible to crack at organisations who struggle with application complexity, rapid system change, and overly-manual testing processes. Challenges include:
1. Test creation time. Manually creating test cases, data and scripts is slow and unsystematic, resulting in low coverage tests.
2. Slow test maintenance. Changes break tests, with little time in sprints to check test cases, scripts, and data.
3. Knowing when testing is “done”. There is little measurability or peace of mind when systems “go live”.
This webinar will set out how maintaining a “digital twin” of the system under test prioritises testing time AND maintains rigorous tests in-sprint. You will see how:
1. Intuitive flowcharts generate optimised test cases, scripts, and data.
2. Feeding changes into the models maintains up-to-date tests.
3. Pushing the tests to agile test management tooling then makes sure that teams know which tests to run, when, with full traceability and a measurable definition of ‘done’.
James Walker, Curiosity’s Director of Technology, and Sérgio Freire, Head of Product Evangelism for Xray, will set out this cutting-edge approach to in-sprint testing. Günther-Matthias Bär, Test Automation Engineer at Sogeti, will then draw on implementation experience to discuss the value of the proposed approach.
Service Virtualization: What Testers Need to KnowTechWell
Unrestrained access to a trustworthy and realistic test environment—including the application under test and all of its dependent components—is essential for achieving “quality @ speed” with agile, DevOps, and continuous delivery. Service virtualization is an emerging technology that provides teams access to a complete test environment by simulating the dependent components that are beyond their control, still evolving, or too complex to configure in a test lab. Arthur Hicken covers the ABCs of service virtualization—what it is and how it impacts Access, Behavior, Cost, and Speed. Learn how it can help you test more rigorously, avoid parallel development bottlenecks, and isolate application layers for debugging and performance testing in two ways—first, by providing access to dependent system components that would otherwise delay development and testing tasks; and second, by allowing you to alter the behavior of those dependent components in ways that would be impossible with a staged test environment.

Slides from webinar, co-hosted by the Vivit UK & Ireland Local User Groups on May 27th 2020. James Walker from Curiosity Software Ireland presented on model-based testing for ALM/Octane, setting out how model-based testing enables greater communication, collaboration and end-to-end automation.
For many organizations today, ALM Octane provides the single source of truth for distributed teams. Its scalable test management keeps testers and developers synchronised with granular analysis of testing progress and results, all integrated into CI/CD pipelines and agile methodologies. However, the quality of this testing remains dependent on the quality of the tests fed in and assigned to testers. Testing speed furthermore remains limited by the efficiency of that test creation. Manual, unsystematic test design and a reliance on low-coverage production data will still lead to low coverage tests. Those tests will also remain impossible to maintain in tight iterations, leaving new releases further exposed to damaging bugs. Impeccable test management instead deserves impeccable test design.
This webinar demonstrated how model-based test generation seamlessly maintains optimized test cases and data in ALM Octane, all linked to system requirements and automation frameworks for in-sprint maintenance and test execution. You will discover a requirements-driven approach to test maintenance, in which test cases, scripts and data are maintained as quick-to-build flowcharts are updated. Powerful mathematical algorithms generate the smallest set of tests needed to “cover” the latest system logic, with “just in time” data allocation to ensure that every test has valid test data. Pushing the tests to integrated automation frameworks enables truly “Continuous Testing”, with granular run results synchronized automatically in ALM Octane.
A US-based network security company implemented Harbinger's hybrid test automation framework to improve their testing process. The framework used Selenium and a keyword-driven approach to develop 43 test scripts covering 1,500 test cases. This allowed the company to increase test coverage from 38% to 100% and execute all tests across multiple browsers daily, finding defects earlier. The automated reporting provided management and developers with insights to reduce defects and costs compared to manual testing.

Operations: Production Readiness Review – how to stop bad things from happening - There is more to deploying code than pushing the deploy button. A good practice that many companies follow is a Production Readiness Review (PRR) which is essentially a pre-flight check list before a service launches. This helps ensure new services are properly architected, monitored, secured, and more. We’ll walk through an example PRR and discuss the value of ensuring each of these is properly taken care of before your service launches.

Software is an important tool for improving the speed, reliability, and quality of existing processes in every corner of a modern enterprise. Now revolutionary software development practices adopted by online leaders like Amazon, Facebook, and Google have achieved new levels of speed and flexibility. New software is broken into smaller pieces: big 'waterfall' releases are replaced by smaller 'agile sprints', and then into a continuous flow of smaller components - each optimized with specific points of measurement and feedback.

UI5con 2024 - Bring Your Own Design SystemPeter Muessig
How do you combine the OpenUI5/SAPUI5 programming model with a design system that makes its controls available as Web Components? Since OpenUI5/SAPUI5 1.120, the framework supports the integration of any Web Components. This makes it possible, for example, to natively embed own Web Components of your design system which are created with Stencil. The integration embeds the Web Components in a way that they can be used naturally in XMLViews, like with standard UI5 controls, and can be bound with data binding. Learn how you can also make use of the Web Components base class in OpenUI5/SAPUI5 to also integrate your Web Components and get inspired by the solution to generate a custom UI5 library providing the Web Components control wrappers for the native ones.

Hand Rolled Applicative User ValidationCode KataPhilip Schwarz
Could you use a simple piece of Scala validation code (granted, a very simplistic one too!) that you can rewrite, now and again, to refresh your basic understanding of Applicative operators <*>, <*, *>?
The goal is not to write perfect code showcasing validation, but rather, to provide a small, rough-and ready exercise to reinforce your muscle-memory.
Despite its grandiose-sounding title, this deck consists of just three slides showing the Scala 3 code to be rewritten whenever the details of the operators begin to fade away.
The code is my rough and ready translation of a Haskell user-validation program found in a book called Finding Success (and Failure) in Haskell - Fall in love with applicative functors.

Microservice Teams - How the cloud changes the way we workSven Peters
A lot of technical challenges and complexity come with building a cloud-native and distributed architecture. The way we develop backend software has fundamentally changed in the last ten years. Managing a microservices architecture demands a lot of us to ensure observability and operational resiliency. But did you also change the way you run your development teams?
Sven will talk about Atlassian’s journey from a monolith to a multi-tenanted architecture and how it affected the way the engineering teams work. You will learn how we shifted to service ownership, moved to more autonomous teams (and its challenges), and established platform and enablement teams.
2. Integrated tests are a scam—a self-replicating virus that threatens to
infect your code base, your project, and your team with endless pain
and suffering.
http://blog.thecodewhisperer.com/permalink/integrated-tests-are-a-scam
3. Integration testing is complicated
• 10 APIs, 5 resources, 3 methods, 6 response codes, 10 fields.
• 10x5x3x6x10 = 9000 tests without even dealing with data validations,
permutations, application logic and rules.
• Scale your application network up and number of tests will have to be
in 1,000,000’s to provide adequate coverage.
• Environment setup is long and fragile
• How do we even version integration tests?
• Large coordinated release windows – blast from the past.
