Drupal is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) that allows users to build complex websites and projects. It supports features like content management, collaborative authoring, and extensions through modules. However, Drupal requires more technical skills than WordPress, as users need knowledge of HTML, CSS, and PHP. WordPress is more beginner-friendly and only requires 5 minutes to install, while allowing users to easily create and modify blogs and websites through an intuitive interface and thousands of available themes and plugins. Both CMSs have large communities and frequent security updates, but WordPress is generally better suited for simpler blogs and smaller sites, while Drupal is more appropriate for complex websites and projects.
WordPress emerged as a blogging platform in 2001 while Drupal emerged as a CMS in the same year. While WordPress is easier to use and install, making it well-suited for simpler sites, Drupal is more powerful and flexible and thus better for complex sites. Both systems are open source with strong developer communities and opportunities for customization, though Drupal requires more technical experience. The choice depends on the specific site requirements and skills of the developers.
WordPress is a powerful and popular platform used by millions of website owners around the world. One of the reasons for its popularity is the flexibility it offers through plugins and themes. In this presentation, we will dive into the fascinating world of WordPress plugins and themes. We will start by defining what plugins and themes are and how they work, and then explore the different types of plugins and themes available, including free and paid options. We will also look at how plugins and themes can be used to customize your website's appearance and functionality, and discuss best practices for choosing and installing them. Whether you're a WordPress beginner or an experienced user, this presentation will provide valuable insights into how you can take advantage of plugins and themes to enhance your website and achieve your goals.

Drupal has the strongest integration through built-in blocks, access controls, and synchronization of memberships. Determining the best CMS depends on factors like required features, administration needs, and budget.
The document discusses various integration strategies between CiviCRM and Drupal including mapping CiviCRM groups to Drupal roles, giving Drupal roles based on CiviCRM memberships, using Drupal rules to trigger actions from CiviCRM events, integrating CiviCRM data with Drupal Views, collecting information and adding it to CiviCRM using Webforms, adding CiviCRM contact references to Drupal entities, integrating Drupal Commerce with CiviCRM, and running CiviCRM scheduled jobs through Drupal Cron.
This document discusses content management. It defines content as text, graphics, videos and other materials used for marketing, events, social media and more.

HijackLoader Evolution: Interactive Process HollowingDonato Onofri
CrowdStrike researchers have identified a HijackLoader (aka IDAT Loader) sample that employs sophisticated evasion techniques to enhance the complexity of the threat. HijackLoader, an increasingly popular tool among adversaries for deploying additional payloads and tooling, continues to evolve as its developers experiment and enhance its capabilities.
In their analysis of a recent HijackLoader sample, CrowdStrike researchers discovered new techniques designed to increase the defense evasion capabilities of the loader. The malware developer used a standard process hollowing technique coupled with an additional trigger that was activated by the parent process writing to a pipe. This new approach, called "Interactive Process Hollowing", has the potential to make defense evasion stealthier.
