- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
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.

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.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

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:

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:
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.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
3. The Beginning…
In 1971, motivated by their vision of a green and
peaceful world, a small team of activists (the Don't
Make A Wave Committee) set sail from
Vancouver, Canada, in an old fishing boat. These
activists, the founders of Greenpeace, believed that
a few individuals could make a difference.
4. Their mission was to “bear witness” the US
underground nuclear tests at Amchitka, a small island
of Alaska, which is one of the world's most earthquake-
prone regions.
Amchitka was the last refuge for 3000 endangered sea
species, and home to bald eagles, peregrine falcons
and other wildlife.
Even though their old boat was intercepted before it got
to Amchitka, the journey sparked a huge interest of
public.
The US still detonated the bomb, but the voice of
reason had been heard. Nuclear testing on Amchitka
ended that same year, and the island was later
declared a bird sanctuary.
5. And this was the beginning of an independent
global campaigning organization, that alert the
people for the danger that we create to the
environment.
6. The Founders…
We can say that the founders of Greenpeace were
the “Don‟t Make a Wave Committee” founders:
Dorothy and Irving Stowe, Marie and Jim
Bohlen, Ben and Dorothy Metcalfe, and Bob
Hunter. Its first directors were Stowe, Bohlen, and
a student named Paul Cote.
7. The name origin…
The Canadian ecologist Bob Hunter had an idea, in
order to change the name of their committee: he
wanted combine words that represent the aims of
the group: “green world”, “peace”, “environment”.
And with the combination of this two words “green
and peace" came the name of this global
organization that defends the environment.
8. Greenpeace structure…
The organization of Greenpeace includes
“Greenpeace International”, whose principal
department is in Amsterdam, and 28 national and
regional offices worldwide, providing a constant
presence in over 40 countries.
These national/regional delegations are
autonomous in the conduction of local campaign
strategies, in which they operate, as well as the
searching of financial support from donors to fund
its work.
9. The preparation and coordination of global
strategies is the job of Greenpeace International.
The coordination of Greenpeace campaigns across
the world and its development and performances is
followed by this committee too.
Greenpeace International is the entity that
maintains contact with
supporters and donors in the countries where don‟t
exist any national Greenpeace delegation.
11. Principal Values
“Bearing witness" of environmental destruction in a
peaceful and non-violent way;
Use non-violent confrontation to raise the level and
quality of public debate;
Don‟ t have permanent allies or adversaries in the
reporting of threats to the environment and finding
solutions to its treaths;
Ensure the financial independence of the
organization for political or commercial interests.
12. How Greenpeace works?
Greenpeace is known for its non-violent direct
action and confronting environmental problems
peacefully. However, the non-violent direct action
and isn´t the only method that Greenpeace uses to
protect the environment.
Witness environmental crimes is one other way,
and it was the first form of action taken by the
founders of Greenpeace in 1971, at Amchitka.
13. Sensitize and alert citizens is essential to bring
about change. Greenpeace uses its sites, e-mails
and official presentations to inform the public,
industry and governments on environmental
problems and propose solutions.
Greenpeace also lobbies
and proposes solutions
to persuade business and
industry to adopt best
practices and measures
to implement truly
sustainable methods.
14. Greenpeace over the years…
Since the first major victory at Amchitka, many
others (over 100) have been achieved too, from the
whales' rescue to the nuclear tests ending. This
organization is involved in many issues related to
environment, and easily solve them.
15. 1994: Greenpeace actions exposing toxic waste
trade from Organisation for Economic Co-operation
and Development (OECD) to non-OECD countries
culminate in government negotiation of the Basel
Convention banning this practice.
2000-2001: An ever increasing and significant
number of European retailers, food producers, and
subsidiaries of multinational companies guaranteed
to keep genetically engineered ingredients out of
their products due to consumer pressure. Thanks
to its consumer networks in 15 countries,
Greenpeace tests products, collects information
about food products and policies and exposes
contamination cases.
16. February 4, 2004:Esso loses its court case against
Greenpeace in France. As part of our "Don't buy
Esso, Don't buy Exxon/Mobil" campaign,
Greenpeace developed a parody of Esso's logo
with a double dollar sign: E$$O, which the oil giant
attempted to censor. In a victory for freedom of
expression on the web and for its campaign
against the world's #1 environmental criminal, the
French court defended the logo as an exercise in
free speech.
March 9, 2006: Electronics giant Hewlett Packard
commits to a phase out plan for a range of
hazardous chemicals in its products.
17. September 2008: Six Greenpeace UK volunteers are
acquitted of criminal damage by a Crown Court jury in a
case that centered on the contribution made to climate
change by burning coal. The charges arose after the six
attempted to shut down the Kings north coal-fired power
station in Kent in 2007 by scaling the chimney and
painting the Prime Minister's name down the side. The
defendants pleaded 'not guilty' and relied in court on the
defense of 'lawful excuse„, claiming they shut the power
station in order to defend property of a greater value
from the global impact of climate change. The
landmark case marks the first victory of the 'lawful
excuse' defense in a climate-change case in Britain.
18. Greenpeace Ships
The Greenpeace fleet of ships is the unique mean
asset in the battle to save planet Earth and protect
the global commons. The ships are used at the
forefront of Greenpeace campaigning, often sailing
to remote areas to “bear witness” and take action
against environmental destruction.

24. Greenpeace Resources
Greenpeace doesn't‟ t accept donations from
businesses, governments and political parties
to finance their activities. The financial
resources that sustain their activities come
from voluntary donations from individuals and
part of the sales in their stores.
25. These stores, called “Greenpeace Area” (Green
Shop) releases and markets a line of licensed
products by other entity, whose production doesn´t
bring any risks to the environment or have low
environmental impact. The strategy is offer non-
polluting alternatives to consumers.
26. The future of Greenpeace…
For the next years, Greenpeace want to continue
this “fight” against all of the environmental
problems, unfortunately created by us.
27. The priorities campaigns are:
Catalyzing an energy revolution to address the number
one threat facing our planet: climate change.
Defending our oceans by challenging wasteful and
destructive fishing, and creating a global network of marine
reserves.
Protecting the world‟s remaining ancient forests which are
depended on by many animals, plants and people.
Working for disarmament and peace by reducing
dependence on finite resources and calling for the
elimination of all nuclear weapons.
Creating a toxic free future with safer alternatives to
hazardous chemicals in today's products and
manufacturing.
