Improving Cybersecurity and Resilience Through Acquisition Emile Monette GSAGovCloud Network
When the government purchases products or services with inadequate in-built “cybersecurity,” the risks created persist throughout the lifespan of the item purchased. The lasting effect of inadequate cybersecurity in acquired items is part of what makes acquisition reform so important to achieving cybersecurity and resiliency.
Currently, government and contractors use varied and nonstandard practices, which make it difficult to consistently manage and measure acquisition cyber risks across different organizations.
Meanwhile, due to the growing sophistication and complexity of ICT and the global ICT supply chains, federal agency information systems are increasingly at risk of compromise, and agencies need guidance to help manage ICT supply chain risks

Shifting to a Customer-centric
Business Model :-
Many businesses already see the writing on the wall: Only 8 percent of companies
say their current business model will remain economically viable if their industry
keeps digitizing at its current course and speed.2 But to become a modern digital
business, you must go beyond just digitizing old business models and instead use
technology to align your people, processes, and technology around entirely new ways
of serving customers.
By placing the customer at the center of everything you do, you can create products,
services, and experiences that are more valuable to your buyer, allowing you to stand
out in an increasingly commoditized world, drive more profit, and generate more
brand loyalty.

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.
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.

2. Welcome to the Application
Economy
We’re in the midst of a business revolution – one where
customers interact with businesses via software.
Where apps have become the primary face of the
business.
Where JPMorgan Chase has more software
developers than Google and more
technologists than Microsoft.

5. Start thinking differently about
your software
It’s not just an IT issue. It is a business
imperative.
There are five essential truths you need to
learn about the Application Economy …
6. #1. Every business is in the
software business
Have you seen a car ad lately?
It’s likely to tout applications and connections as
much as styling and horsepower.
7. In some industries, the number of
software jobs have doubled over the
past five years

8. If you think your company isn’t in the
software business, you’re wrong …
Banks, airlines, athletic shoe companies – you name
it – are all using applications to attract and engage
customers and gain a competitive advantage.
9. #2. Your infrastructure is now your
greatest competitive advantage
IT infrastructure investment is no longer an IT
decision—it’s now a business decision, made by C-level
stakeholders looking for the best competitive
advantage.
10. Google won Search with world-beating
performance
Google built a near-insurmountable competitive
edge in Search by delivering an average search time
of 0.06 to 0.12 seconds.
BUT performance alone is not enough ...
Source: Google's Infrastructure is its Strategic Advantage at http://gigaom.com/2007/12/04/google
12. #3. DevOps should be your new
best practice
You need to build and deploy software faster,
more reliably, and this means DevOps,
where the creation, testing, and deployment of software
is a single, integrated process.
DevOps means your Dev and Ops teams can work more
collaboratively to deliver the highest quality apps, with
the best customer experience, in the fastest time
possible, to maximize the value IT delivers.
13. DevOps pays big benefits
A recent survey of 1300 senior IT leaders revealed
that 39% of companies have already adopted a
DevOps approach.
Those using DevOps saw a 19% increase in revenue,
a 20% reduction in time to market, and a 22%
increase in quality.
SOURCE: “What Smart Businesses Know About DevOps”, CA and Vanson Bourne, 2013
14. DirecTV brought Dev and Ops
closer together to:
• meet their consumers’ evolving needs
• provide increased flexibility around their legacy systems
• decrease time-to-market on their offerings

15. #4. Security should enable the
business, not just protect it
65% of healthcare professionals think secure text
messaging could reduce hospital discharge times by
50 minutes.
This alone could save $3.1 billion in costs
across the industry.

Software Must Enrich Your Brand
Editor's Notes
For those businesses here today looking to transform the industry, your first port of call must be new mobile applications. Mobile device usage is exploding, and on mobile devices customers are looking overwhelmingly to use applications, rather than the mobile web, with over 80% of consumers using mobile applications in favor of mobile browsers.
But the greater application economy is much more than just mobile.
Around a third of consumers still use desktop and laptop; almost two-thirds are considered ‘multi-channel’ users, using both mobile and desktop or laptop.
Plus … almost half of all US consumers have a web-connected game console, 17% have an e-Reader, 16% have an internet-connected Smart TV
But understand that it is not enough to just have these applications. As the consumerization of IT drives customers to expect better options, you must pay attention to application quality and user experience.
The impact of poor experience is real and measurable. For example, just a three second delay in load times for a web application will cause 25% of your customers to abandon your website.
If you are building mobile applications, you have to get it right, first time, because up to 90% of your customers will never even try your app a second or third time
And as we all know, application issues cost real money – such as when ‘system problems’ during the Facebook IPO caused massive headaches for the NASDAQ, and an estimated $500 million dollar loss for traders … not to mention a $10 million dollar fine from the SEC.
