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.

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).

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

Where are the CD being done?
But first some background!Why did I spend my time researching a old procedure relegated to history? Which I had performed in practice for a quarter of a centuryPCOGS (2011 in Bend, Oregon)— two papers (1) abhesions prevention (2) IDT with prior c-sectionsI had asked about consider EPCS??Collequges asked be to talk about it! But only way was to do a little paper. A review of the operative procedure. Not a commentary or rehass of history epcsvs IPCS. So I had finished paper last May….ready to enjoy a summer in AlaskaI had indentified the experienced obstetrians and their preferred approach to the EP LUSThe Written Word is supplement by excellent YouTube videos of execution of the EPCSSo usually my young audience have tuned out and access the YouTube video as the lecture proceedsReturn from the lake, the Hanson’s household in Alaska had a young vistor from Bejing…….doctoral student in philosoophyDinner followed by breakfastWe evaluate the Chinese literature accessing the Chinese National Infrastructure Database…Articles not available on PubMed..that is really the story of this little talkA country doing 6X the number of CS as in the USEBM Questions are being answered by their research
We are all farmiliar with this step As the rectus muscles are seperated, transversal fascia is piereces and the loose areolar tissue of the EPS is encountered
Demonstation
Exposure of the EP LUS is is the critical issueThe Problem is the Bladder>>>> Midline Blocking Position
The Bladder Blocks AccessMidline blocking position
One approach is SUPRAVESCIALTediousDifficultyTime consumingBladder injury 10% commonNot recommended; rare proponents since 1940’s
The problem is the bladder: DISPLACED TO EXPOSEDisplacing: by finger dissection using natural tissue planesSwepting: from harms way, BYStreching: the umbilical ligaments & urachusExposing the LUSMuch easier, saver less tedinous and less with bladder injury rate similar to the IPCSPreferred METHOD
This is the left paravesical spaceThe lower uterine segment acts as a backstop for the dissectionPeriotneal reflection superiorlyUmbilical ligament defines lateral border of bladder…which is ..streched as bladder is displace off midline
This is the data that I collected
This is a summary form that will be used to tabulate findings:Experience surgeonsPreferred technques
8 minutes by Dr. MichaelFauckIn my review of the world resources, I found really excellent YouTube videos demonstrating the EPCS! I focused on 4 (one French and 3 India video and together had received 150,000 hits). I will call your attention to two:The best professional video is by Dr. Faulk which I will show you! 2. The 2nd is Dr. Desari video of his presentaiton at the 19th FIGO meeting in South Africia—he present 1000 cases of EpCS with IDT-2 minutes and OT of 12 minutes
THERE IS LOTS OF EXPERIENCE IN THIS WORLDOutside the US
Chineselitature is difficulty to translate…………comparative studies may not met Western standardsHOWERE THE CRITCAL QUESTIONS OF ENTRY INTO THE PERITONEAL CAVITY FOR CD THIS STUDIES ARE NOT BEING DONE IN THE US
