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.

"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.

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.

Evaluation question 4
1. Evaluation Question 4
How did you use new media
technologies in the construction and
research, planning and evaluation
stages?
2. Media Technologies
With the help of media technologies I was able to get
the best research, planning, construction and
evaluation for my product because without the
variation of things to use, my work would look the
same, there would be no variation of my skills. Because
there are so many different media technologies
available to use, I was able to present my work in a
number of different ways and they allowed me to learn
new skills and to experience working with technology
that I will be working with in university.
3. GarageBand
GarageBand has enabled me to create the soundtrack
for my trailer at a higher standard than what another
program could have done. It has given me the
opportunity to experiment with a few ideas for the
soundtrack of my trailer using the different instrument
sounds available on the software and it also allowed me
to download extra tracks from websites that made the
tracks sound more like they were made for horror films.
When I first started the project I thought the soundtrack
was going to be a quick and easy process, but having to
actually make it myself and having to make sure certain
parts of the track are inline with certain clips from the
trailer has made me realise that a lot of time and effort
has to be put into it. I only used this program for the
production of my product, but I feel like it has also
helped me with the research and planning side too
because different genres require different sounding
tracks and with the use of GarageBand I feel confident
that I could create a soundtrack for a trailer of any
genre.
4. Final Cut Express played a vital role in the
construction of my product, because without it I
would not have been able to create a professional
standard trailer. The program allowed me to
experiment a few different ways I could have made
my trailer, and I was able to make some shots fade
in and out as well as sound, I could make the text
involved in the trailer enlarge or shrink, glow or
twirl, the possibilities of variation were endless.
Final Cut was only used for the construction of my
product, but I feel like I can now use it more
confidently and I would be able to make a trailer for
any genre of film using the software.
5. Photoshop
With the use of Photoshop I was able to
make a magazine cover which to me looks
like some of the Total Film magazines I
researched and multiple posters based on a
few ideas from my research. Because the
program has many different editing
techniques I managed to create effective
looking posters, exactly how I wanted them
to look. I was able to edit the images in a
few different ways to get them to the
standard that I wanted and also the text was
easy to manipulate to how I wanted as well.
Photoshop really only helped in the
planning and construction of my project
because the software is used to create
things, and I learnt a lot of new techniques
for editing than I did before.
6. Internet Explorer
I used the internet the most
for the research and
planning of my project.
Because there are now a
range of search engines and
websites available to use for
many different purposes I
was able to find images and
text and videos that helped
me with my project.
7. YouTube
YouTube helped me find inspiration for the construction of my
project, more specifically my trailer. Because I was able to find
horror film trailers with some aspects that I liked and was
then able to incorporate those ideas into my own trailer. I was
also able to watch a few videos about how to use some of the
software like Photoshop and Final Cut to be able to get the
effects on the photos and clips from the trailer that I think
look effective. I was also able to upload videos of myself onto
YouTube taking about my project and how it is coming along
in the research and planning stages. YouTube has helped me
in a number of ways and with every aspect of the project, and
I have found that it is very useful in more ways than just being
able to look up videos of music of films trailers.
8. Blogger
Without the use of Blogger I wouldn’t have
been able to present my entire project as
easily as I have. With Blogger allowing me
to add photos and videos to my posts I was
able to showcase my work in an
interesting way and keep every post in
order, from when the project started right
up to the very end. I have been able to
keep up to date with all aspects if the
project, and I was able to go back over my
work and change some of it if I needed to.
I was able to keep all of my research,
planning and construction in one place so I
could see how my project was coming
along.
9. Prezi
Prezi has helped me show some of my research and
evaluation work in an interesting way, it has given
me an alternative to just typing it up on Blogger. I
have been able to add voice overs and images to
help further explain what I was trying to get across. I
have learnt more about how to work with Prezi
during this project and I am quite confident in my
knowledge of the program.
10. Facebook
Without the use of social media like
Facebook I would have been unable to get
feedback about my products throughout my
project. This has helped because without
this feedback I would have been unable to
improve on my work, with comments from
my target audience informing me on what
they liked and disliked about my posters,
magazine cover and trailer, and I was able to
act on that and improve what needed to be
improved.
11. DLSR Camera
I was able to use a DLSR camera for my project, to
take both the photos for my print work and I also
used it to film my trailer. Because I used my dads
camera, I was able to take photos and do the filming
whenever both my models and I were available. Also,
because my dad knows what each setting on the
camera is used for and how to get the best photos
possible, I was able to get some help with taking the
photos of my models that I used for my posters and
magazine covers. I was bale to take HD video footage
for my trailer and the best photos for my print work
because I used this style of camera.
12. Grab
Without the use of the Grab tool
I wouldn’t have been able to get
quick and easy shots of my work
in progress. Using Grab I was
able to show the progress in my
work throughout the project
without having to save each
change I made as separate files.
13. Slideshare
The use of Slideshare has enabled me to
present my evaluations in an easily
understandable yet professional looking way.
The website works by the users create a
PowerPoint, however they want it to look,
and then you upload it to the site and it
transforms it into an easy accessible online
PowerPoint which I can then upload onto my
Blogger.
14. Dafont.com
With the use of the website dafont.com I
was able to have a really interesting font
style for my print work, which I also used
in my trailer to keep everything
consistent. The website has a wide range
of different styled fonts available to
download and I managed to find one
particular style I thought was acceptable
for my project. I found a wide range of
font styles while researching for fonts to
use to give my product an edge and to
make it different from others.
15. iMac
By using Apple iMac computers I have
had easy access to programs such as
Final Cut Express and GarageBand
which I cant get at home. This has
benefited me because I have been
able to work on my trailer and my
soundtrack at college and then I was
able to work on my print work and
keeping my blog up to date at home.
