The Mainframe's Role in Enterprise Security Management - Jean-Marc DareesNRB
We are expecting more and more from our IBM z Systems. Our critical data and applications are nested in our IBM z Systems infrastructure, and more than ever it positions itself as the security hub. It now exports services to secure distributed environment thanks to its security as a services capabilities. During this lecture, Mr Darées talks about z Systems Roles for security in most of today’s hot topics (compliance, Database encryption, Tokenization, Digital Certificates, ...).
This presents challenges faced by a large FinTech company adopting Kubernetes/Container and cloud environment for deploying their application with very high level of security .
Other than technical challenges, this also talks about non-tech challenges faced by various stakeholders during the adoption. Talks about entire journey from decision making to deploying a full automated deployment environment, CI/CD pipeline, devops processes etc.
Software Defined Network introduces a new breed of computer network that exists only as software so that you can control it independently of the physical switches and routers running beneath it. With the network being virtualized, it now becomes possible to deliver a data center that can be delivered as a service. The control and management of the data center can by automated by software. In this presentation we discuss the current developments in software defined data centers, what users can achieve today and identify challenges that they may face.

Next Generation Ethernet
Next Generation Ethernet is a platform that should deliver all of previous function requirements under on hood. I have grouped the Generations in this way because Cisco has different purpose-built product lines for each of 4 waves of technology. Counter to that Extreme offers a platform solution for a customer to build his network on. Extreme does not require different switches to address different convergence requirements, this would be cost prohibitive for most customers and complicated. Simply put to disrupt the Cisco market, Extreme must deliver more with less.
The IEEE is pushing Ethernet to unimaginable speeds, with the 40/100Gigabit Ethernet standard expected to be ratified in 2010 and Terabit Ethernet on the drawing board for 2015. Here's a timeline showing key milestones in the growth of Ethernet Sstandard's-compliant products are expected to ship in the second half of next year, not long after the expected June 2010 ratification of the 802.3ba standard.
Complexity - Complex systems are a special type of chaotic system. They display a very interesting type of emergent behavior called, logically enough, complex adaptive behavior. But we are getting ahead of ourselves. There’s a need to back up a bit and describe a fundamental behavior that occurs at the granular level and leads to complex adaptive behavior. It is self -organization. Complex Adaptive Behavior is the name given to this forming-falling apart-reforming-falling apart-… behavior. Specifically it is defined as many agents working in parallel to accomplish a goal. It is conflict ridden, very fluid, and very positive. The hallmark of emergent, complex adaptive behavior is it brings about a change from the starting point that is not just different in degree but in kind. In biology a good example of this is the emergence of consciousness. Another example is the Manhattan Project and the development of the atomic bomb. Below is a checklist that helps facilitate a qualitative assessment of the level of complexity. It is in everyday language to facilitate use by a broad range of stakeholders and team members. In other words, it stays away from jargon, which can be the kiss of death when requesting information from people.
The Checklist
Not sure how the project will get done; Many stakeholders, teams and sub-teams;
Too Many vendors; New vendors;
New client; Team members are geographically dispersed;
End-users are geographically dispersed; Many organizations;
Many cultures (professional, organizational, sociological);
Many languages (professional, organizational, sociological);
High risk;
Lack of quality best characterized by lack of acceptance criteria;
Lack of clear requirements and too Many tasks;
Arbitrary budget or end date;
Inadequate resources;
Leading-edge technology;
New, unproven application of existing technology;
High degree of interconnectedness (professional, technological, political, sociological).

Networking is NOT Free: Lessons in Network DesignRandy Bias
An in-depth critique of the existing OpenStack networking approach, with a focus on how the Nova network controller is more of a hindrance than a help. Discusses the gap in Quantum's functionality required to close the gap, and alternative solutions. How can we make networking in OpenStack robust, high performance, and fault tolerant? What do typical large scale networks look like and what lessons can we learn from them? Is there an approach to networking we can take that is the same with a handful of servers as it is with hundreds of racks?
Designed for demanding office environments, the MR12 provides high-speed, reliable and cost-effective wireless coverage even in challenging indoor RF scenarios, up to six times faster than a/b/g networks. Only available with the Meraki Enterprise Cloud Controller.

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.

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

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.
