The document provides an overview of cyberfeminism, including its origins in the early 1990s. It discusses how VNS Matrix coined the term in their 1991 Cyberfeminist Manifesto and how the Old Boys Network held the First Cyberfeminist International in 1997. At this conference, they created the "100 Anti-theses" to describe what cyberfeminism is not, rather than providing a single definition. The document also outlines some ways cyberfeminism can be approached, including critiquing gender relations with technology, and establishes "The Five Rules of Cyberfeminist Engagement" methodology based on collaborative and playful principles.
Media Life is a course intended for undergraduate students across campus. Its goal is to make people aware of the role that media play in their everyday life. The key to understanding a "media life" is to see our lives not as lived WITH media (which would lead to a focus on media effects and media-centric theories of society), but rather IN media (where the distinction between what we do with and without media dissolves).

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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:

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.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige 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:

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
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 FuzzingAftab 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.

Encryption in Microsoft 365 - ExpertsLive Netherlands 2024Albert Hoitingh
In this session I delve into the encryption technology used in Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Purview. Including the concepts of Customer Key and Double Key Encryption.
3. When I talk about cyberfeminism I am talking about the work of artists and theorists such as
4. VNS Matrix The Old Boys Network Faith Wilding and Critical Art Ensemble Sadie Plant SubRosa Rosie X Rosie Bradotti Linda Dement Sonya Rapoprt Sussana Paassonen Verena Kuni
5. You can find links to a lot of great cyberfeminist work at www.functionfeminism.com
11. “ four bored girls decided to have some fun with art and French feminist theory… with homage to Donna Haraway they began to play around with the idea of cyberfeminism… Beginning as if by spontaneous combustion, from a few hot nodes in Europe, America and Australia, cyberfeminism became a viral meme infecting theory, art and the academy” As Julienne Pierce explained:
12.
13.
14.
15. At around the same time in Europe The Old Boys Network was created by a group of women including Cornellia Solfrank, Faith Wilding, Yvonne Volkart and Helene von Oldenburg
16. The OBN still exists today. Check out their reading room at www.obn.org - it is an excellent resource
17. It was the old boys network that really set the terms for cyberfeminism as a movement by holding the First Cyberfeminist International
18. This was a conference within a conference - Documenta X - that was held in Kassel, Germany, in 1997
19. It was a one day session where women who had begun to work in this new field could get together, share ideas, talk about the direction they wanted to take cyberfeminism and address the question of a unified definition of cyberfeminism once and for all
21. Well not in the traditional sense. They decided to avoid a rigid definition, or rather refused to create a definition that would force others to conform and instead they decided to create the 100 anti-theses
24. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound
25. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound 55. cyberfeminisme n'est pas une pipe
26. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 100. cyberfeminism has not only one language 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound 55. cyberfeminisme n'est pas une pipe
27. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 100. cyberfeminism has not only one language 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound 55. cyberfeminisme n'est pas une pipe 14. cyberfeminism is not complete
28. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 100. cyberfeminism has not only one language 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound 55. cyberfeminisme n'est pas une pipe 14. cyberfeminism is not complete 83. cyberfeminism is not about boring toys for boring boys
29. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 100. cyberfeminism has not only one language 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound 55. cyberfeminisme n'est pas une pipe 14. cyberfeminism is not complete 68. cyberfeminism is not a single woman 83. cyberfeminism is not about boring toys for boring boys
30. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 100. cyberfeminism has not only one language 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound 55. cyberfeminisme n'est pas une pipe 14. cyberfeminism is not complete 68. cyberfeminism is not a single woman 83. cyberfeminism is not about boring toys for boring boys 30. cyberfeminism is not without connectivity
31. 100 Anti-theses 1. cyberfeminism is not a fragrance 100. cyberfeminism has not only one language 63. cyberfeminism is not a wound 55. cyberfeminisme n'est pas une pipe 14. cyberfeminism is not complete 68. cyberfeminism is not a single woman 83. cyberfeminism is not about boring toys for boring boys 30. cyberfeminism is not without connectivity 65. cyberfeminismo no es una banana
32. The 100 anti-theses is a list of statements describing what cyberfeminism is not
39. "Cyberfeminism is a myth. A myth is a story of unidentifiable origin, or of different origins. A myth is based on one central story which is retold over and over in different variations. A myth denies ONE history as well as ONE truth, and implies a search for truth in the SPACES , in the DIFFERENCES BETWEEN the different stories. Speaking about Cyberfeminism as a myth, is not intended to mystify it, it simply indicates that Cyberfeminism only exists in plural.”
40. So I am going to hold true to the vision of my cyberfeminist foremothers and not provide you with a singular definition either
42. I will tell you some of the things that cyberfeminism can be, to add to what it is not
43. examine the relationships between women and technology Cyberfeminism can… critique at equality in cyberspace examine relationships between bodies and technology examine technology by engaging with it disrupt the perception of technology as ‘toys for boys’ challenge established perceptions of cyberspace seek to bring about change from within playfully address feminist issues directly address feminist issues subtly address feminist issues embrace technology be humorous be fun be active be collaborative be subversive
44. Cyberfeminism can be all these things, but any individual cyberfeminist work need not be all these things at once
45. examine the relationships between women and technology critique at equality in cyberspace examine relationships between bodies and technology examine technology by engaging with it disrupt the perception of technology as ‘toys for boys’ challenge established perceptions of cyberspace seek to bring about change from within playfully address feminist issues directly address feminist issues subtly address feminist issues embrace technology be humorous be fun be active be collaborative be subversive that would be a lot to ask
51. The Five Rules of Cyberfeminist Engagement* * Of course, these are my rules and you are welcome to use them, but as a cyberfeminist you are free to make your own if you want, in fact you are encouraged to do so
55. Cyberfeminism is very much connected to a DIY ethic. From the very beginning of the movement it has had a strong connection to art Most of the prominent cyberfeminists are both artists as well as theorists
56. Engagement and participation are integral parts of what makes cyberfeminism a movement beyond a feminist critique of technology There are theorists, such as Donna Haraway and Judy Wajkman who have done some awesome work in the area of women and technology, but that doesn’t necessarily make them cyberfeminists as such
58. By this I mean, once you have engaged with the technology, don’t settle for things the way they appear It may not mean actual program hacking - although it certainly could - it means see what is there and take it and turn it into something that works for you.
59. Jon Ipolito said that electronic art was best described as ‘ creative misuse of technology ’ and I think that description is particularly fitting - which leads me to the fourth rule…
61. I do wonder if this is a backlash against the perception of the humorless feminist, but there is a tradition for cyberfeminist works to be playful and fun while subversive with a serious message. Kind of lighthearted with a sting
64. This is an important one, because, while it is becoming more common, collaboration generally goes against preferred patriarchal methods of art practice where a lot of value is placed in the idea of the auteur , and works being touched by the hand of the master
65. However, when you are talking about technology , and the internet in particular, the more femininely defined collaborative approach is increasingly suitable
66. what I mean by this is if you think about a craft vs art dichotomy - current uses of technology are more analogous to craft - more like quilting than an oil painting
67. So that is what I mean when I say cyberfeminism
