Practical tips for migrating SharePoint Customizations to Office 365Haniel Croitoru
When planning a migration of SharePoint on-premises environment to Office 365, the first thing that comes to mind is organizations often focus mainly on their content - all the documents and items stored across their libraries and lists. Of course, why wouldn't they? It's the reason that they started using SharePoint anyways. But in many cases, the SharePoint environment that has been well adopted and his highly use will include some level of customizations to help meet specific business needs. These may include forms and workflows, scheduled timer jobs, custom look and feel, business logic to interface with other line of business solutions, to name a few.
Join me as we take a look at ways to create a SharePoint Online environment that will provide a similar experience for your users. We will look are various technologies, including CSOM Scripting, Microsoft Flow, PowerApps, Forms, LogicApps, and Azure Functions.

SharePoint Migration - To Be Or Not To Be ‘In The Cloud’ Adam Levithan
With Microsoft's release of SharePoint 2013 and Office 365, organizations are still unsure which direction to turn when faced with a migration decision. Is the cloud the right fit for my organization? Is traditional, on-premise the best bet? How about the hybrid approach?
The fervor that existed in organizations to migrate quickly from SharePoint 2003 to 2007, and 2007 to 2010 has not been repeated for SharePoint 2013. While there are significant technological and user-focused advances in SharePoint 2013, it has faced rapid changes in the expectations of organizations to implement digital workplaces that its predecessors did not experience. These changes include the confusion and competition between Office 365, Yammer and other systems being introduced as options, even when hosting options have already been chosen.
Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of SharePoint in the cloud, on-premise and hybrid. This webinar will help you better understand the available options and how they fit in creating a real-time, digital workplace within your organization.
•The benefits of each migration option, Office 365, on-premise and hybrid
•Top reasons for moving to the cloud
•The cost of migration alternatives (on-Premise, Hosted, Office 365)
•How to build a value statement for your migration
Déployer Office 365 de plus en plus rapidement : une réalité. Vous découvrirez dans cette session une nouvelle démarche de déploiement qui a pour but de déployer les utilisateurs plus tôt et certaines fonctionnalités comme la synchro ADFS par exemple en post migration.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...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:
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.

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:
Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.

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.

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.

Migration Analysis
• No access, no discovery
• Migration tool password entry through
supervision
• Identify whether or not current
organisation employees actually access
which respective site collections
• Operate on couple of principles:
• We are separating therefore we
need to bite the bullet, similar
outcome to the “do we federate”,
which was we won’t be.
• Rely on the safe guard of data
principle - copy our SharePoint site,
leaving the original in place and
intact so that if current organisation
needs to get to data, it is still there.

Current Organisation: Global organisation based in USA with UK subsidiary organisation
Target Organisation: Global organisation based in Australia with UK Subsidiary organisation
Engaged as SharePoint Architect and responsible for delivering SharePoint services, OneDrive, Office 365 Groups and Intranet.
Proof of concept migration appraisals and activities
First time target org has been exposed to paying for store office 365 subscriptions. Always managed by source org, on a fantastic deal with Microsoft.
Therefore with the target store approach and the opportunity to reduce subscriptions annual costs, Store Operations keen to simplify and reduce.
The new contact centre providing an additional leverage point, both business units want to deliver new business processes supported by email, therefore start from scratch now, not reengineer later
Benefit: 14,500 less accounts to migrate from source org.
Source organisation O365 tenant based in USA mixed with other subsidiary organisations.
Target organisation O365 tenant based in Australia and new O365 tenant provisioned in Europe.
Planner was left out as no clear migration path.
Future Improvement: MS Ignite announcement - Single O365 tenant data residing in multi-geo locations.
SharePoint migration strategy and high level designs were produced but with no traceable requirements other than business objectives.
Therefore making difficult to define services targeted for end user.
No Test or UAT environments for bespoke intranet – all activities in different site collections, impacts on search results showing duplicate content, etc.
No migration tool appraisal – unable to test scenarios and content loads
Migration process broken down into two high level stages.
Unlicensed stage: overall environment and structure provisioned - are one off configurations that undergo little or no change in the source. i.e. taxonomy, user profile properties, content types.
Licensed stage: users, content and applications for SharePoint online migrated and provisioned. Prior to be being licenced, it isn’t possible to align content, users and permissions without the user existing in the destination
Hosting the tool on a Virtual Machine Azure - entire process occurs within the Microsoft cloud reducing latency and subject to less data transfer throttling during the migration.
20 VMs for hosting SharePoint Migration Tool
20 SharePoint Migration Tools licenses
Dedicated for Site Collections
Batches of OneDrive Migrations
Seamless migration/synchronisation of user/group accounts from legacy forest to new UK forest, helping to facilitate the Office 365 migration.
Automated the creation of 2600 mailboxes for the new tenant. Additionally, each mailbox configured with Advanced Threat Protection for security and analytics, and depending on the type of mailbox, synchronised from the on-prem AD through Azure AD Connect.
Migrated 50 site collections from one tenant to another tenant. Migrated both Out Of The Box and heavily customised sites.
Migrated 1200 one drives in batches to split the load on dedicated virtual servers
Office 365 Group sites were migrated using SharePoint connector that only brought files and not conversations.
Office 365 Video portal was not supported by the migration tool so new channels were created manually and subsequently video content was migrated into respective channels using the migration tool.
