In a digital world, startups are challenging established enterprises that should have a head start due to their existing customer base, data and money. Startups have the passion, accountability and motivation that may be lacking in these established organisations. The focus for the enterprise to remain ahead is to be customer obsessed, be digitally savvy and adopt an agile mindset, whilst changing the culture of the organisation to allow people to drive purpose, autonomy and mastery. Presented by Biase De Gregorio and Rafael Rodriguez

CA Technologies

Have you been wondering about the rise of open-source alternatives to LoadRunner and other legacy performance tools? Why is there such a strong shift to open source performance testing? Here are key concepts that will allow you to make the transition from centralized testing with legacy tools to widely distributed testing with Apache JMeter and other open source tools. You’ll see how a small Center of Excellence (CoE) team can drive a 10x or 100x increase in testing by handing out logins to self-service tools instead of being a finite resource for test preparation and execution.

Reassuring the employee engagement skeptics: “back pocket” answers to respond and address concerns about your survey initiative You are convinced of the need to measure and manage employee engagement in your organization. You’ve seen the benefits of higher morale, higher productivity, higher retention, and all the rest. Unfortunately, you’re also met with “the skeptics”: those people in your organization who are just not convinced the same way you are: “Engagement surveys are so yesterday. We need a more novel approach” “Engagement surveys are not really confidential” “Engagement surveys don’t change anything. Nothing ever happens” In this webinar, Norm Baillie-David, will provide you with experience and keen insight into what the real insecurities are when people put forward these and other objections. Better yet, this webinar will arm you with evidence and facts from decades of research in order to address these issues and convince “the skeptics” in your organization of the benefits of actively measuring and managing employee engagement.

Resilience: how to build resilience in your people and your organization

Delta Partners

"It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change." - Charles Darwin Those people who are familiar with our work know that we write quite a lot about the pace of change in our global business environment. It is continual, it is unrelenting, and it appears to be accelerating. We cannot slow the pace of change, so do we give up? Throw our hands up and succumb to the tidal wave of knowledge that we are adrift and rudderless? And if not, what can we do to make our people and our organizations more resilient in the face of this ongoing pressure? "Resilience: an ability to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change." - Merriam-Webster Dictionary It turns out that there are definitely steps that a manager can take to influence the resilience of both the organization and the individual. The goal of this presentation is to provide a starting point for leaders and managers as they seek ways to battle back against the apathy and exhaustion that builds in everyone. It is not the final word in these matters – rather it is best considered a jumping off point for those who are looking for a different way. So enjoy it, share it, and use it. Just let everyone know where you found it!

A fundamental ingredient for high-performing teams is self-organisation. And what better example of high-performance teams in action than the Navy SEALs! Many see the military as a bureaucratic, command and control, top-down organisation. Yet, elements of military leadership align to Agile principles, like: small teams, decentralised decision making, discipline as a mechanism for autonomy, a common shared vision and purpose Join me as we walk through practical application of how to: - Recognise the importance of clarity and direction for teams - Determine the boundaries and constraints required to operate as a self-organised team - Apply practices and tools to create the environment needed for high-performance Are you ready to become a Servant Leader Navy SEAL style?

This talk was presented at the Regional Scrum Gathering in India on the 6th and 7th of September in Bengalore. The SA Agile index report provided an opportunity to share experiences, observations and research into the state of Agile in South Africa and share these with our Indian colleagues and friends Over the last 7 years of being involved in Agile adoptions in South Africa, primarily, at large financial services organisations, I have observed trends that have made the adoption of Agile particularly challenging. These are as follows: Lack of business engagement – most Agile adoptions are driven by IT and ignore business Program execution – coordination of large programmes Team delivery – delivery teams are provided with the necessary constraints, conditions and purpose Lack of systems thinking – extending agility to all the supporting functions in the organisation Lack of Change management – typically mandated from executives to deliver the promise of Agile, however, leaders underestimate the impact on people The talk is aimed at individuals and organisations that are currently on or starting an Agile adoption by discussing each of these challenges identified and validated through the research as well as providing some options in addressing these challenges.

Ultimately, individuals and teams need to take Extreme Ownership of what they do in order to drive success

DevOps Talk - Agile and DevOps are complimentary and necessary

IQ Business - agility@IQ

I have worked in many organisations (mainly large financial institutions) where they are embarking on Agile transformation. They typically have the best intent, but as teams start going through the journey, they get blocked by all the organisational impediments that exist. For teams, this is mainly related to high-levels of bureaucratic processes, governance to get Software released into the production environment. This typically leads to a Water-Scrum-Fall environment, where teams build features in sprints, but can only deploy in a big-bang approach as the environment doesn’t support them. Over and above, they then need to handover to a production team that will support the software. Ultimately, the customer suffers as they have to wait months to obtain valuable features. “Continuous Delivery (CD) and DevOps are both complementary ways of working. The former assists with shipping quality software quickly, the latter helps harmonize the teams that deliver and support said software. Both approaches can help you to optimize, streamline, and improve the way you work. Ultimately, both will help you ship quality software” – Continuous Delivery and DevOps - A quickstart Guide (2nd Edition) – Paul Swartout The adoption and growth of DevOps is accelerating and I believe this is as a result of organisations adopting Agile and struggling implementing the principles and practice that the Agile Manifesto promotes – E.g. early and continuous delivery of valuable software, deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale. I have been assisting a large financial institution with their Enterprise Agile transformation and they have acknowledged the importance of DevOps to enable their teams to be more ‘Agile’ and ultimately change the way they work. My talk will introduce important concepts and understanding of the following: - Introducing CD and DevOps, - What are the common myths about DevOps, - How Agile and DevOps are highly complementary to deliver valuable, working software - Practical experience and story of how we approached the adoption of DevOps in a large financial institution and lessons learned

Visual facilitation for agile BAs

IQ Business - agility@IQ

Have you ever facilitated a workshop or meeting, but felt like something was missing? Do you find your workshop notes or meeting minutes are a long list of action points, with little to remind you about the conversations you had? Have you ever wanted to be more creative in your facilitation style? A core skill of any Business Analyst, whether in a traditional or agile environment, is the ability to effectively facilitate meetings and workshops. Often, we rely on a scribe (or our memory) to record the details of the workshop or meeting, placing emphasis on written word rather than on the conversation that took place. Why not use something everyone can understand? Pictures! Luckily, you don’t have to be an artist to make your meetings and workshops more stimulating and engaging. Join me as we create a visual vocabulary to use during facilitation sessions. We will also learn new ways to put your flip chart to good use – it’s not just for parking lots anymore!

Looking Beyond Agile - Using Customer Experience Management (CEM) To Build th...

IQ Business - agility@IQ

Customer Experience management (CEM) and Agile are two current buzz words in the industry that everyone is talking about. This presentation will describe the key principles of both philosophies and demonstrate how these two approaches align. Agile is about delivering customer value frequently and early. However, it is not only about doing Agile really well, but ensuring that we are delivering the product that meets customer expectations. Gartner defines CEM as “the practice of designing and reacting to customer interactions to meet or exceed customer expectations and, thus, increase customer satisfaction, loyalty and advocacy.” Therefore, using CEM, it allows organisations to determine what true customer value really is, and enables you to prioritise features and items on the product backlog based on this value. This approach ensures that you are truly meeting your customer needs, and in doing so, providing a competitive advantage for your organisation. The presentation is a 45 minute talk that will focus on how these two levers align to deliver true customer value as well as introducing practical techniques to derive a product backlog that meets your customer needs.

Using Scrum and Experiments to industrialise and Scale DevOps in a Large Bank

All super heroes need tools… like thor’s hammer or iron man’s suit, scrum teams require dev ops to make them powerful All Super heroes have awesome gadgets, tools and support to allow them to be as powerful as they are. For example, Thor has the hammer, Iron Man has the suit and Batman has Lucius Fox that supports Batman with running his business and provides the car, weapons and gadgets. Scrum teams also require the necessary support, tools and gadgets to make them Super Heroes. This is where DevOps fits in. I have worked in many organisations (mainly large financial institutions) where they are embarking on Agile transformation. They typically have the best intent, but as teams start going through the journey, they get blocked by all the organisational impediments that exist. For teams, this is mainly related to high-levels of bureaucratic processes, governance to get Software released into the production environment.

IQ Business - agility@IQ

Lack of Executive buy-in is known to be one the leading causes of failed Agile transformations! But what about another level of management buy-in that can either make or break your agile transformation efforts… Middle management! Based on my experience in large corporate organisations undergoing an agile transformation, I have encountered massive support and buy-in from senior leadership and executives. Yet, still some of these transformations have failed to see the significant improvement in results that there were expecting. Middle management are often overlooked in Agile transformation initiatives, yet they are the people most effected by the change… and therefore the most likely to resist.

BASSA 2014 Product Vision workshop 16 September 2014

IQ Business - agility@IQ

“Teamwork is the ability to work together towards a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments towards organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.” – Andrew Carnegie Research has proven that a key ingredient of any successful team is a shared vision. When each team member knows that they are doing something of value and that their individual contribution is essential for the success of the team, they are more committed to the result. Join us for an interactive session where you will learn how to create and communicate a company, product or project vision using the following tools and techniques (and more): Elevator Statement: communicate the vision in less than 30 seconds (the average time span of an elevator ride) Product Vision Board : Validate your ideas and assumptions about the target group, user needs, key product features and value the product should deliver Vision Box: If your product or initiative were marketed in a box, what would it look like? These tools and techniques are suitable for teams in both an Agile and Waterfall environment and will encourage participation from even the most challenging stakeholder! Main takeaways Get practical hands-on experience using all of the above techniques Discover the OMG (Object Management Group) Business Motivation Model and learn the difference between “Mission” and “Vision” and how “Courses of Action” help to attain “Desired Results”. Defining the business need and vision is a key task of the BABOK Enterprise Analysis knowledge area and a critical part of any business analysis effort. Use these techniques as an alternative to the options available in the BABOK.

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.

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

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.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing

Aftab 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. - These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf

Paige 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:

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object Calisthenics

Dorra BARTAGUIZ

After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

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.
