Presentation from Open Source Leadership Summit 2019. This talk will highlight some best practices that your Open Source Program Office (OSPO) can use to manage security vulnerabilities for open source projects using GitHub’s security alerts at scale. We’ll discuss the mechanics and governance around the process we’ve set up at Verizon Media to notify internal employees about CVEs on their projects.
Continuous Delivery is considered a holy grail of a software company. This practice allows to ship product to millions of users in a matter of minutes. Tooling is an important part of process, but when the company is growing, there's more to the story.
This talk discusses engineering practices, values, and engineering culture of the company. They enable the company to ship code on the high pace.
Join the Developer workshop to learn about the many options there are for developers to extend and integrate with the Splunk platform by using our various language SDKs, the Web Framework , creating custom components such as Search Commands and Modular Inputs and ultimately understanding the potential opportunity for you in creating your own Splunk Apps.

Helix GitSwarm is where developer preferences meet enterprise needs. Based on the popular GitLab collaboration suite, it gives developers the pure Git-based workflow they love while satisfying enterprise security and scalability needs. With its unique "narrow cloning" capability, developers using Git can focus on their work and easily share components with other team members. Even if you're not using Git, Helix provides unique capabilities for modern DevOps.
This session will demonstrate ...
Git Repo Management: GitSwarm’s intuitive, web-based UI lets users quickly manage projects and people. You'll see how easy it is to manage users, groups and projects.
Natural Git Workflow: GitSwarm includes project management, issue tracking, merge request workflows and much more. All the tools a professional developer needs.
Narrow Cloning: Mono repos are key to sharing work and avoiding Git repo sprawl. See how to dice and slice a mono repo to be just the set of files you need in your local repository.
Helix Integration: Manage all your assets in one place, lock files that can’t easily be merged and have everything you need for your CI builds in one place. An ideal system for powering continuous delivery.
Everyone knows about TDD nowadays, but do you feel you are spending more time testing than writing code ? Where is the point where tests become an impediment to the evolution of your project ?
Instead of taking a religious approach to TDD (""you MUST ..."", ""good developers DO ...."", ""have you read the book XYZ on ..."") this is more a professional perspective, looking at how provide value using TDD as a powerful tool to focus on value and reducing waste.
Mockist TDD has lead software to a even higher level of complexity, up to the point where looking at the tests lead to a much higher confusion rather than just reading the code.
We will go through the TDD-related problem and real-life experiences in a very interactive talk, with a common goal to see what we can do now to make our tests more a tool for a better code rather than a karma for our development working life.

ERNESTO BETHENCOURT
At BBVA we are developing the Bank’s Next Global Banking Platform for building, deploying and running banking services of any kind, leveraging on cloud technologies. Security is one of the main components for this new platform and is expected to be self-service and easy to use. But it’s not only technology we are building, it’s a new culture based mainly on DevOps. So, what better opportunity to shift-left and offer developers the tools that they need to easily change their (and security teams) mindsets regarding security? In this talk we will walk you through the strategy that we have adopted to expose security services for enabling secure development but at the same time automating security processes needed by security teams. All this trying to keep it in a low budget (at least for now) by levering on vendors and open-source solutions.
The Kitura Server-side Swift framework has built support for Swagger and OpenAPI directly into its framework so that it auto-generates its own OpenAPI specification. This presentation show's how that enables Kitura to be used in the much wider OpenAPI ecosystem.
Europace is a network-centric organization within a network of organizations (Hypoport). It uses the self-organization framework Holacracy as its operating system---loosely coupled, autonomous teams are working together for a common purpose. But with autonomy also comes a trend towards self-sufficiency. In the years after starting with self-organization we experienced a lot of “reinventing the wheel” instead of company-wide collaboration. In order to find a way out of this dilemma we looked at the open source world, especially on how collaboration works in such a distributed world. What we found was The Apache Way.
Next, a group of people interested and experienced in Open Source founded a community of practise at Europace. Together, we run experiments for applying the patterns of The Apache Way at our teams. As a result of those experiments these patterns can nowadays be found everywhere at Europace, especially when it comes to collaboration between teams. But we did not stop there, we kept on running experiments in order to improve the InnerSource experience at Europace. In this talk you will learn which experiments we run, how we did it and what we discovered on our journey so far.
Stranger Danger - Finding vulnerabilities before they find you - Liran Tal 2021Liran Tal
Open-source modules on the NPM ecosystem are undoubtedly awesome. However, they also represent an undeniable and massive risk. You’re introducing someone else’s code into your system, often with little or no scrutiny. The wrong package can introduce critical vulnerabilities into your application, exposing your application and your user's data. This talk will use a sample application, Goof, which uses various vulnerable dependencies, which we will exploit as an attacker would. For each issue, we'll explain why it happened, show its impact, and – most importantly – see how to avoid or fix it.
Your Resolution for 2018: Five Principles For Securing DevOpsDevOps.com
Organizations in today’s market must strike a balance between competitive differentiation and meeting evolving compliance standards-particularly related to software security. They need to obtain faster release and deployment cycles, improved collaboration between business stakeholders and application development and operations teams, and automation tools. DevOps, an innovative organizational and cultural way of organizing development and IT operations work, is addressing this challenge – driven by mounting evidence of its benefits to the business. However reaping these gains requires rethinking application security to deliver more secure code at DevOps speed.

DevSecOps for Developers: How To StartPatricia Aas
How can you squeeze Security into DevOps? Security is often an understaffed function, so how can you leverage what you have in DevOps to improve your security posture?
Often the culture clash between Security and Development is even more prominent than between Development and Operations. Understanding the differences in how these functions work, and leveraging their similarities, will reveal processes already in place that can be used to improve security. This fine tuning of tools and processes can give you DevSecOps on a shoestring."
Chiara Chiappini - Swift and the future of iOS app developmentCodemotion
In 2014 Apple introduced Swift into the world receiving positive feedback from the developer community. At eBay we started a new iOS app using Swift. While most of our developers had strong Java and Scala backgrounds, none of us had any iOS experience. We faced many challenges with learning a new language and paradigm, and rose to the challenge. During this talk I would like to share with you our findings and show you our progresses. We will discuss together how to build a maintainable and testable app based on our experience.

There’s no better way to understand container security than seeing some live hacking! This sessions explains and distinguishes the security concern of each layer in the container stack by actually exploiting each layer. We’ll take on Kubernetes itself, the Kubernetes configuration, the container engine (sandbox escaping), OS dependencies in your images, and of course your application dependencies. Each successful hack will help you better understand the mistakes you can make, their implications, and how you can avoid them.

PDF version of the slide deck for my JavaLand 2015 talk "All-round careful Software Development with GitHub Services"
Tools for unit testing, building applications, analyzing software quality and planning release scopes are an essential aspect of modern software development. With GitHub and "pluggable" external services there are lots of options to move these aspects into "the Cloud". For open source projects this is a viable alternative to on-premise solutions. In this talk I will present and demonstrate the CI lifecycle of some of my recent projects hosted on GitHub where I tried to integrate modern tools (e.g. Gradle, npm, bower) and external services (e.g. Travis-CI, Code Climate, Coveralls, HuBoard, AmazonSNS, NMA). The benefits and limitations of those services will be honestly illuminated. I am not affiliated with any of the providers mentioned, so this talk will not end up as a marketing show! Instead, the audience is supposed go out of this talk with some new things to try out with their own GitHub projects while hopefully being able to avoid some of the ramp-up difficulties.
Preventing Code Leaks & Other Critical Security Risks from CodeDevOps.com
In the last decade, the way software is developed and deployed has completely changed, yet the way we secure it has stood still. Today, developers use Git and open source and deploy via devops to the cloud. All of this has introduced security risks that are being exploited by hackers.
In this one hour webinar, learn the top threats facing companies from their code environments and how to address them.
You will learn:
How Git-based environments post a threat to enterprise security
Why companies lack visibility into who has downloaded their code on unprotected devices
How to mitigate the threats from code without altering or slowing down the software development process
How code security must fit into an overall information security strategy
Who should attend:
CISOs or infosec directors
Devsecops leaders and engineers
Appsec leaders and engineers
If you are a developer and want to make the most of the different available programming tools, this ebook contains a deep analysis of six programming languages: Python, HTML5, Java, Javascript, PHP and Pearl. More information in http://bbva.info/2t1NEv7
Webinar: Capabilities, Confidence and Community – What Flux GA Means for YouWeaveworks
Flux, the original GitOps project, began its development in a small London office back in 2017 with the goal to bring continuous delivery (CD) to developers, platform and cluster operators working with Kubernetes. From donating the project to the CNCF, its continued growth within the cloud native community, to its achievement of passing rigorous battle tests for security, longevity and governance, it’s little wonder that Flux v2 has reached yet another celebratory milestone – General Availability (GA).
Flux is the GitOps platform of choice for many enterprise companies such as SAP, Volvo Cars, and Axel Springer; and is embedded within AKS, Azure Arc and EKS Anywhere. It provides extensive automation to CI/CD, security and audit trails, and reliability through canary deployments and rollback capabilities.
Join this webinar by Flux maintainers and creators and discover:
* Latest release features and roadmap for the future.
* Interesting use cases for Flux (e.g security).
* Flux capabilities you may not be aware of (e.g. extensions).
* Joining the vibrant Flux community.
* How to leverage Flux in a supported enterprise environment today.
In this session Sandro will focus on two of the new features: Azure Functions Integration and Call nested workflows that were announced by Microsoft Integration Product team on the monthly webcast. We will also see how they will allow us to:

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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).

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.

Hi everyone, welcome to my talk Don’t Ignore GitHub security alerts, automate them into your workflow.
My name is Ashley Wolf. I am an open source program Manager at Verizon Media.
Verizon Media is now part of Verizon. It’s effectively Yahoo + AOL, we used to be called Oath now we are Verizon Media. I’ve worked on the open source team for 5 years and I did a stint in between at a cyber security start up before rejoining Verizon Media.
I want to share a little bit about our open source program office.
We run a fairly large open source program. We support about 7,000 developers.
We have a few hundred open source projects... Two dozen orgs... and Dozens of mobile apps.
There are some traditional OSPO functions that you know about: inbound, outbound, license compliance.
In our team, we found that we spend about a quarter of our time on security related things.
That’s something you might not have associated with an OSPO.
Our company already deals with production security alerts through our internal security team, SEs, and code scanning.
Remember Martin at the keynote? This is his company and we are his customers. We run the largest global bug bounty program which is an excellent method for inviting external folks to identify production problems.
But We’re not the information security team, they deal with infosec. We’re an OSPO. let’s talk about that gap.
As OSPOS we care about vulnerabilities and dependencies with vulnerabilities.
Specifically, if it’s in a published piece of code. We have to be concerned that we’ve published something that the community uses and a few months later some dependency on it makes it vulnerable and potentially causing you to introduce a vulnerability into your code. That’s a problem.
We want people to trust our code. But if our code calls in someone else’s code we need to know. We want to make sure when you come to our open source projects you are getting good code. Because errors caught early cost less in the long run.
As an OSPO we have a vested interest to make sure our dependencies are free of vulnerabilities.
Infosec people care about security in production code.
It’s not typical for infosec team to care about non-production published code, but it’s important for an OSPO to care, because we want people to trust the quality of the code.
As an OSPO, you have this unique need to care about an information security issue that your infosec team doesn’t have to. We have a reputation to uphold.
There’s Good news, GitHub can help us.
Bad news, not as helpful as we were hoping.
What I want to do today is share with you what GH does and where I think we need to take it to be good news.
Heres the agenda for today and I know it’s slide 10.
There’s a category of security issues that you have to care about, because no one else does.
I’m going to share with you what GitHub does
and where it falls short, and
I’m going to end with a CTA to help us make this better.
First, I want to say thank you to GitHub for providing a security alerts feature.
For public repositories which are using a supported language/package manager,
GH SEC alerts tells you about your project’s dependencies and vulnerabilities right on the repo.
You can double click into the issue on a package and find out what the appropriate remediation steps are.
BTW - I want to point out these are pretty simple fixes. It most of the cases, it’s upgrading to the new version.
So It’s not that we are dealing with bad code, we’re just dealing with code that hasn’t been patched yet.
By default, you should be receiving weekly emails summarizing your security alerts. If you have not already, you can configure these alerts and switch from weekly to individually or daily.
This all sounds good, but where this falls short is the OSPO specific use cases.
As OSPOs, we care about a lot of projects.
The GH solution was focused on the project manager, but as an OSPO we need a better approach.
Here’s some examples of what you’ll encounter with GH Security alerts
This information is all very useful to OSPOs for audting and accountability.
We want to know that teams looked at alerts
We want to know if they dismiss it and why
Sometimes, project owner ignores the issues.
As some point we have to ask ourselves is this project dead? Or do we need a new project owner?
This page told us we need to make a decision. Elected leader, archive the project, or a better system to deal with alerts.
We decided to publish an open source project to automate the security workflow designed for OSPOs.
The Amazon OSPO published a little code, and we published a little code, and now we have a proof of concept to get our security alerts in real time.
We’re not limited by 10 repos.
We can get more information.
And can create tickets in JIRA.
We’re beginning to chip away at some of those limitations.
What we’d like to see is a fully automated workflow.
With a DB and an endpoint that is pluggable so if your OSPO wants to trigger an email, or create a ticket in any system you can do that.
In these events, we can really get into the information that OSPOs need
As you see, we have a need, we are working toward a solution. And in the spirit of open source, we’d like to invite other OSPOs to consider this problem and to work with us to solve it.
We’d love your help and contributions.
Some of the near term development tasks we have
We’ve been talking about security vulnerabilities and I feel the need to remind you sometimes Open Source gets a bad rap from security professionals.
They say open source is less secure. We think OSS has -- more potential -- to be more secure.
We’re here to do something about it so that we can all agree open source is not less secure, it’s more securable.
And what we want to do is make that really happen.
