This book provides strategies for improving cash flow management in businesses. It aims to help business owners and advisers master cash flow and elevate business success. The author, Nigel Fitzpatrick, has over 30 years of experience providing financial services and consulting to businesses. He has written this book to help business people meet their goals by providing powerful ways to improve their biggest worry, which is cash flow.
It depends on the business whether cash flow or profits are more important to track. For a profitable business with cash flow issues, cash is the priority so it can pay bills. For an unprofitable business with excess cash, profits must be the focus so the cash position does not deteriorate over time. Ideally, both cash flow and profits should be monitored, but if only one can be tracked, profits are generally more important because they add to cash flow and allow the business to continue operating. Ignoring profits can lead to running out of cash in the long run and the failure to achieve business goals or fund expansion.

Open Source and Open Innovation - Dr. Sabine Brunswicker - Red Hat Summit 2016Purdue RCODI
From Open Source Towards Open Innovation: Fostering Corporate Innovation with Open Source Software (OSS) Communities presented by Dr. Sabine Brunswicker.
Dr. Sabine Brunswicker presented the latest work on how firms and individuals collaborate in an open source software community in the Red Hat Summit 2016. In particular, she highlighted how firms, whether they are OSS vendors or OSS uses, and also the individual developer, can support each other in order to successfully integrating new features in the software. Red Hat Summit is the premier open source technology event to showcase the latest and greatest in cloud computing, platform, virtualization, middleware, storage, and systems management technologies.
Open source software (OSS) is booming. Working the OSS way has become the new standard of software development. This trend has also changed the nature of OSS communities. While originally the domain of hobbyists and hackers, OSS communities are now attracting the participation of firms, both small and large ones. Indeed, OSS communities offer firms the opportunities to engage in what experts call ‘open innovation’. They open up to OSS communities and participate in OSS communities in order to create direct and indirect corporate innovation benefits. This presentation will focus on open innovation for new ‘industrial’ OSS communities, which bring together OSS vendors, OSS customers, as well as independent developers. One of the prominent examples of these new OSS communities is the OpenStack community in the area of cloud computing. These communities create unique opportunities not only for vendor but also for OSS customers to actively shape the agenda of the development activities and also implement this agenda. At the same time, these communities also expose firms to new management challenges given the size and diversity of the actors involved. In my talk I will provide very recent insights gained from a big data analysis focused on the ‘inner working mechanism’ of the OpenStack community. A deep dive into the contribution behavior of different vendors and OSS customers suggest that firms need to align their open innovation strategy with their idiosyncratic innovation interest, the development capabilities of their own employees, and their role in the community. For example, firms that seek to drive more radical changes in the OSS software should behave differently than those firms that are more focused on immediate quality improvements. In sum, the presentation will give those firms, which already participate in new ‘industrial’ OSS communities, as well as those ones, that only use OSS products, practical guidelines in how to use open innovation for the new ‘breed’ of OSS communities. Concrete examples will depict what kinds of features contributors suggested and how OSS vendors, OSS customers and independent developers collaborate in implementing those features.
Cloud basics for pen testers, red teamers, and defendersGerald Steere
Given at BSides Seattle 2017, February 4, 2017
You know the ins and outs of pivoting through your client’s or your employer’s domains. You know where to find those unprotected creds that unlock the mysteries of the LAN. You know which hashes grant DA and root to the infrastructure. All the bases belong to you, but do you know how to follow once the path leads into the clouds? As more and more companies move part or all of their operations into the cloud, penetration testers need to think beyond the traditional network boundaries and follow the data and services they are after.
The intent of this talk is to provide penetration testers as well as defenders a foundation on cloud services from an attacker’s point of view. This talk is cloud-agnostic and focuses on the general topics and attack patterns necessary to assess cloud-based services rather than specific implementations or vulnerabilities.
Do you know the differences between IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS and which vulnerabilities are applicable to each?
Am I even allowed to assess my company’s cloud resources?
Do you know what credentials you need to move from the corporate network into cloud based services? Do you know where to find them?
What dependencies can you compromise to complete your objectives?
What kinds of recommendations can I make to improve the security of my client’s cloud deployments?
Companies trust key portions of their operations, services, and data to public and private clouds and unless their internal and third-party testers must assess these deployments.
