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.

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.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Competency Iceberg Model
We can think of competencies in terms of an iceberg. Technical competencies (Knowledge, Skill)
are at the tip - above waterline, clearly visible & easier to assess. Behavioral competencies (Self-
image, Trait, Motive) are below the waterline and more difficult to assess and often harder to
develop. Behavioral competencies can be understood as manifestations of (a) how a person
views him or herself (self-image) and (b) how he or she typically behaves (traits) or which gives
purpose & direction to his behaviour (motives).
3. Competencies
The following are the competencies of an individual:

Trait - A typical aspect of a person's behavior (good listener)

Types of Competencies
There are five types of competencies:
4. (i) Core Competencies, (ii) Technical/Professional/Functional Competencies, (iii) Behavioural
Competencies, (iv) Threshold competencies and (v) Differentiating competencies.
Core Competencies - Internal capability that is critical to the success of business, to be
possesses by all individuals
Technical/Professional/Functional Competencies - Specific knowledge & skills required to be
effective in a job
Behavioural competencies - Motives, traits & attributes that shape behaviour & reflect “how”
one applies one‟s knowledge & skills in order to achieve results
Threshold competencies - Characteristics required by a jobholder to perform a job effectively
Differentiating competencies - Characteristics which differentiate superior performers from
average performers
Main Competency Components
Definition: It explains what the competency means and provides the common language that
everyone can understand in the same way
Scale: It lays out a behaviour pattern for each level, beginning with basic behaviour and
gradually increases. It represents a logical and progressive development sequence.
The following are the definitions and scales of two important competencies:
Relationship Building Competency
