Johnathan Nightingale of Mozilla Corporation presents ideas for improving browser security user interfaces (UI). He argues that existing security UIs like padlocks are sparse, incomprehensible, and not carefully designed. He proposes five rules for good security UI: be meaningful, relevant, robust, available, and brave. As an example, he suggests replacing padlocks with "Larry", an identity indicator that clearly shows website identity and is based on standardized Extended Validation certificates. The presentation concludes by discussing additional aspects of security UI and soliciting further ideas and discussion.
Things that go bump on the web - Web Application SecurityChristian Heilmann
My talk at the Web Directions North conference in Denver, Colorado. It covers basic technologies and methodologies of attacks of web applications, what we can do against them and a plea for making interfaces more educational about security than scaring users.
Roberto Bicchierai - Defending web applications from attacksPietro Polsinelli
Is my web application exposed? We will present a short guide for the "contemporary developer" of web apps: we will survey the critical points of our web apps, the database, session stealing, cookies. We will then review the most common attacks from DOS to XSS to CSRF and ways to defend and / or limit damages.
Can be used as a introductory presentation to web security basics. Contains intro on Attacks to Preventions Tips, organized neatly.

Topic: Stupid Cyber Criminal Tricks and How to Combat Them
Speaker: Matt Scheurer
This talk covers various techniques used by cyber criminals, and how to spot them. This is the accompanying slide deck for a presentation that covers live demos. Who does not love a good cyber-crime story?
n the world of DevOps and the cloud, most developers have to learn new technologies and methodologies. The focus tends to be on adding capabilities such as resilience and scaling to an application. One critical aspect consistently overlooked is security.
In this session, learn about a few of the simple actions you can take (and some behaviors you must change) to create a more secure Java application for the cloud. The world of the cyber criminal is closer than you realize. Hear how at risk your application may be, see practical examples of how you can inadvertently leave the doors open, and understand what you can do to make your Java solution more secure.

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.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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:

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.
LF Energy Webinar: Electrical Grid Modelling and Simulation Through PowSyBl -...DanBrown980551

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
