Mule esb for beginners
Mule is an open-source enterprise service bus and integration platform that allows for integration across systems and protocols. It uses a graphical development environment called Anypoint Studio and provides tools for management and security. Mule supports common transports and messaging protocols like AMQP, JMS, and WebSphere MQ to connect applications and data sources. The Universal Message Object defines the parameters for internal messaging between components to set and get variables based on user needs and program functionality.
Deploy apps in standalone with maven
This document discusses how to deploy a Mule application to a Mule standalone server using Maven. It explains that you need to create a Mule project with Maven in Anypoint Studio, which will generate a pom.xml file. The pom.xml file needs to be configured to copy the generated deployment ZIP file to the Mule standalone server's apps folder. Running Maven from the command line or in Anypoint Studio will then build the project, deploy it to the standalone server, and allow it to be tested by hitting the configured URL.
Using maven with mule
Maven can be used to develop and manage Mule projects. Mule provides built-in Maven functionality in Anypoint Studio and for Mule ESB. In Studio, new projects can be built with Maven or existing projects can have Maven support enabled. Maven plugins for Mule ESB allow controlling Mule instances from Maven and provide archetypes for regular Mule applications. Projects developed outside Studio using Maven can also be imported.
Nevera Dul Moment
One of the worst situations is when you have a database in need of recovery...and find that you don't have a usable backup. One option is to use a Data Unloader (DUL), a costly tool/service that is able to extract data from a down and unusable database. However, the best option is to avoid this situation completely through recovery testing, database refreshes, and proper security. This presentation focuses on common reasons for data recovery (worst practices) and how to avoid them (best practices).
Repl ts
This lab walks through troubleshooting common Active Directory replication errors using tools like ADREPLSTATUS, repadmin, and PowerShell. The first exercise identifies replication errors in a 5-domain controller, 3-domain environment. Exercise 2 focuses on resolving error -2146893022, which typically indicates an incorrect target principal name due to a domain controller's system time being changed by more than the tombstone lifetime.
DR Planning and Testing
The document discusses disaster recovery (DR) planning and testing using virtual DR solutions. It notes that downtime has significant economic costs, and that most enterprises prioritize improving DR capabilities. Traditional DR testing is static, focuses on backups, and has slow recovery times. Virtual DR solutions allow replicating workloads into virtual machines, enabling one-click failover and flexible testing. This reduces recovery times and costs while improving protection of workloads. The document promotes PlateSpin Protect and Forge solutions for virtual DR and workload protection across environments.
[충격] 당신의 안드로이드 앱이 느린 이유가 있다??!
This document discusses ways to optimize Android apps for performance. It identifies issues with the JVM, Kotlin language features, and Android framework that can slow down apps. It recommends strategies like using StringBuilder instead of string concatenation, declaring variables as primitives or constants when possible, and properly managing resources and responding to lifecycle events. It also introduces Android Studio profilers as tools for troubleshooting performance problems. The key messages are to avoid unnecessary work, choose efficient data types and operations, manage resources properly, and leverage Jetpack components for lifecycles. Pre-initializing and lazy loading can help optimize startup times.

The Art of Unit Testing - Towards a Testable Design
Slides of the Talk I gave at Devoxx Belgium 2019.
=== Abstract ===
Focusing on the creative work without being terrified of breaking the existing behavior can make software development very addictive! Good automated tests can buy you that!
However, if your tests are not maintainable they may end up slowing you down and causing you painful headaches, compilation errors and spurious failures. To avoid that, your unit tests should be significant; expressive; clean; DRY; non-overlapping; and blazing fast. Writing good tests becomes the toughest challenge for any developer, no matter how battle-hardened: you need to balance risk with test maintenance costs, while looking out for test design smells that call for [risky] refactoring to drive your design towards a set of key principles (included:).
Principles that will end up shaping the way you craft the Production code itself. Because in the end, a good, clean design is more important than coverage%.
But testing gives you the best feedback to get there.
Grab a black coffee and join this snippet from Victor’s Pro Unit Testing #training, to learn about testing priorities, buggy tests, the shared @Before, Mocks vs Stubs and how to reduce them by "purifying" your logic, testing Legacy Code and refactoring @Spy-es out.
All of that in an entertaining, dynamic and memorable session.
Kroll Ontrack Recovering Your Virtual Data
This document discusses recovering virtual data after loss. It identifies common causes of virtual data loss like hardware/software failures and human error. Recovering virtual data is challenging due to factors like multiple guest VMs on one volume. When data loss occurs, recommendations include not overwriting data, restoring to an alternate location, and contacting an experienced virtual data recovery company. Design recommendations to prevent data loss involve naming conventions, access control, documented backup/recovery plans, and monitoring virtual environments.
Java Insecurity: How to Deal with the Constant Vulnerabilities
Just over a decade ago, the outcry over Microsoft’s security problems reached such a deafening level that it finally got the attention of Bill Gates, who wrote the famous Trustworthy Computing memo. Today, many would say that Microsoft leads the industry in security and vulnerability handling.
Now, it’s Java that’s causing the uproar. But has Oracle learned anything from Microsoft in handling these seemingly ceaseless problems? I’ll start by reviewing the wide-ranging Java security changes Oracle is promising to make. They sound so much like the improvements Microsoft made back with Trustworthy Computing that I’m amazed it hasn’t been done before! We’ll move on to discuss what you can do now to address Java security in your environment.
One of the banes of security with Java is the presence of multiple versions of Java, often on the same computer. Sometimes you really need multiple versions of Java to support applications with version dependencies (crazy, I know). But other times, multiple copies of Java are there “just because.” In this webinar, we’ll talk about the current Java mess and how you can get out of it, including:
Assessment. We’ll discuss ways and tools for cataloging what versions of Java are actually out there on your endpoints.
Identification. We’ll look at methods for identifying which versions are actually required by your users; for instance, I’ll show you how you might use Process Tracking and File Access events in the Windows Security Log to see which Java files are being accessed, by whom, and by which programs.
Disabling. Can you just disable Java? Maybe not for everyone, but what if you could disable it for certain roles within your company that make up 25% – or even 75% – of your workforce? That would be worth it. We’ll explore how you might go about such a measure.
Hardening. We’ll dive into the technical details of hardening Java and reducing your Java attack surface, where possible.
Filtering. Another way to reduce your Java risk is by filtering Java content at your gateway. Again not full coverage control – but what is?
Patching. Then, we’ll delve into the Java patching nightmare. Depending on self-updaters on each endpoint, is could be a recipe for disaster, and I’ll explain why. Basically the only way out of the Java mess is a 3rd party solution that can perform centralized patch management and remediation and that’s where our sponsor, Lumension, will come in.

How to Make Android's Bootable Recovery Work For You by Drew Suarez
Android bootable recovery mode is a self-contained alternative boot mode that loads a tiny Linux environment onto a mobile device. While most stock devices are shipped with recoveries that fairly limited in nature, their use can be greatly extended with a little bit of effort. In this presentation, I will show you how to build your own custom recovery for your Android device. This can be used towards a number of interesting security related goals such as: penetration testing, forensics, data acquisition, bypassing security controls, modifying software, Android development and in some cases provides a direct exploitation route into a device. Using a variety of commonly available tools, attendees will learn how to deconstruct and inspect a number of different boot and recovery software implementations and rapidly begin compiling their own custom tools.
The intent is for an attendee to understand the scope and capabilities of Android bootable firmware and learn how to rapidly develop their own custom software for a variety of different purposes. Additionally, it teaches attendees how to look for flaws in bootable firmware which help undermine the security of Android devices. Security research, vulnerability testing, data acquisition and modification, bypassing security controls and platform testing are all intended goals and uses of a custom Android recovery firmware. By the end of the talk, an attendee should have acquired enough knowledge to start making useful tools for security's many needs.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up Slides
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
