This document discusses smart client application development using the .NET framework. It covers the client model, Windows Forms, code access security, smart device programmability, and Visual Studio Tools for Office. Windows Forms allows building smart client applications that provide rich user experiences while being securely deployed. Code access security evaluates all code in the call chain to help prevent malicious code from accessing restricted resources. Visual Studio Tools for Office enables building applications integrated with Microsoft Office using .NET languages and features.

Database Normalization
The term Normalization is a process by which we can efficiently organize the data in a database. It associates relationship between individual tables according to policy designed both to care for the data and to create the database more flexible by eliminating redundancy and inconsistent dependency.
In other words, Database normalization is a process by which a presented database is tailored to bring its component tables into compliance with a sequence of progressive standard forms. It is an organized way of ensuring that a database construction is appropriate for general purpose querying and also includes the functions of insertion, deletion and updating.
Edgar Frank Codd was the person who introduced the process of database normalization firstly in his paper called A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks. The two main objective of database normalization is eliminating redundant data and ensuring data dependencies make sense and make sure that every non-key column in every table is directly reliant on the key and the whole key.
Redundant data or unnecessary data will take more and more space in the database and later, creates the maintenance problem in the database. If data that exists in more than one place must be changed because it wastes disk space and the data must be changed in exactly the same way in all locations of the table.

The Power of Malware Analysis and Development.pdflior mazor
Malware is a persistent threat in today's digital landscape, evolving continuously to evade detection and wreak havoc on systems. In this presentation, we delve into the intricacies of Malware Analysis and Development, exploring its fundamental concepts and real-world applications.
What you will learn in the workshop:
1. What is Malware Analysis:
We begin by demystifying Malware Analysis, a crucial process for understanding the behavior, functionality, and impact of malicious software. From static analysis to dynamic analysis techniques, we uncover the tools and methodologies used to dissect and analyze malware samples effectively.
2. What is Malware Development:
Next, we shift focus to Malware Development, shedding light on the techniques and tactics employed by threat actors to create sophisticated malware. By understanding the inner workings of malware creation, we gain insights into how to combat these threats effectively.
3. The Malware Development Life Cycle:
We explore the Malware Development Life Cycle, from initial reconnaissance and planning to deployment and post-exploitation activities. By mapping out this cycle, we gain a holistic view of how malware is conceived, developed, and utilized in cyber attacks.
4. Why it's important for Red Teamers and Blue Teamers:
We emphasize the importance of Malware Analysis and Development for both Red Teamers and Blue Teamers. For Red Teamers, it provides invaluable insights into crafting realistic attack scenarios and testing defenses. For Blue Teamers, it equips them with the knowledge to detect, analyze, and mitigate malware threats effectively.
5. Practical Malware Reverse Engineering and Development Examples:
Finally, we dive into practical examples of malware reverse engineering and development. Through hands-on demonstrations and case studies, we showcase the process of dissecting malware, understanding its functionality, and even developing defensive measures to thwart future attacks.
join us virtually for our upcoming "Malware Development" Workshop to learn the world of Malware Analysis and Development, where we unravel the complexities of malware and empower defenders with the tools and knowledge to combat cyber threats effectively.
Building frameworks: from concept to completionRuben Goncalves
What are considerations when building a framework/library? How does that apply to OutSystems components? In this session, we’ll do a deep dive into the importance of addressing certain concepts like code granularity, and architecture, in order to create useful, future-proof and coherent frameworks that deliver the best possible developer experience.
Best practices to secure Windows10 with already included featuresAlexander Benoit
AppLocker, Windows Information Protection, Device Guard, WDAG - there are many ways to secure Windows 10. Not all ways are compatible with enterprise requirements. In the session, we look at what we are able to do and discuss experiences from the field around what works well and what doesn’t. In addition, we check how Configuration Manager can support us.

Dev and Blind - Attacking the weakest Link in IT SecurityMario Heiderich
The developer is an easy and valuable target for malicious minds. The reasons for that are numerous and hard to come by. This talk delivers examples, proof, discussion and awkward moments in a pretty special way.
Everybody hates developers – especially web developers. And why not? The cracks and crevices of their APIs and implementations are the reason that vulnerabilities in web applications are still a widespread issue – and will continue to be in the foreseeable future.
Bashing and blaming them for their wrongdoings is fun – boy, they are stupid in their mistakes! But has anyone ever dared to have an open on stage battle with an actual developer?
And who of the developers dares to face their collective nemesis – the attacker? Can there be life where matter and anti-matter collide? We will know about this soon – because this is what this talk is going to be about. Developer versus attacker – vulnerability versus defense. Be prepared for swearing, violence and people leaving the stage prematurely in tears.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
