Definition – Fast Prototyping
Fast or rapid prototyping is a methodical exploration of innovative concept(s) by quick assembly
of pieces either tangible or intangible to validate assumptions which are important to
implement the concept. The outline of this concept is described in article “Intuit Inc. Project
AgriNova” published in HBR by Thomas Eisenmann and Tanya Bijlani. Quickly identifying &
rapidly developing solutions for part of the system which could be potential road blocks is key
to ensure success of the product. This does not need complete development of all (or some)
parts
Problem Statement
Our organization is specialized Business Analytics and Data Management expertise. Among
other things, one of the requests often made by our customer is to give guidance on suitability
of tool (or set of tools) for a particular task. Even though this knowledge is available within our
organization, it is dispersed as the consultants are working with different customer.
We set out to address the issue of
- timely availability of comparison metrics across tools
- continuous update to the metrics being used to compared
After discussing with our executives we decided to build a web based application internally so
that we can feed in the comparison data on continuous basis without spending too much time
on reconciliation efforts.
There were few challenges to be resolved while addressing the issues given in problem
statement. We conducted a brainstorming session within our organization. The outcome of this
session was a list of important components outline of which is as follows:
- User Interface: The UI should be easy to use and intuitive enough to hide the complexity
underneath. Unless the tool is easy to use people will be reluctant to use it.
- Data Update: The data should be fed in on continuous basis to ensure updates for the
tools to be compared are captured on regular basis. If the data is stale it will raise the
credibility issue of the presented comparison. We cannot compare data of outdated
version of the tools.
- Contextual Text Mapping: The biggest issue is contextual mapping of text which
describes a particular feature of tool, product or application.
Of course this list is not comprehensive, but we need to address these points to ensure viability
of the entire efforts.
I think using “Fast Prototyping” to validate the feasibility of the components is best course of
action before attempting to build this product.
Leap of Faith
Can we build & expand? As the data volume increase the methods employed, especially the
algorithm employed will perform satisfactorily? We decided to find this out.
Can we win? We did not spend great amount of time with user experience. We took a leap of
faith by assuming that the team who participated in building UX is representative of future
users. I think we should be able to tweak UI based on usage analytics and.

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.

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).

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Healthspan Intranet - Polymorphic Products
1. Development Portfolio Case Study: Healthspan Intranet (2007) Polymorphic Products Examples of technology created by Paul Tinsley
2. Products change over time and so do information demands. Healthspan needed product information to be malleable over time, not just from the content perspective, but also in quantity and scope. I was the sole designer, coder and web master for the Healthspan Intranet and this presentation focuses on one of its powerful and scalable content management aspects. I developed an inline Content Management System (CMS) that allowed any number of text segments to be associated with any product and given a special scope. This allowed staff to detail whatever data they required for any product, manage that data and even limit access to the data according to an individual’s security access privileges at the singular or group level. The system was coded in ASP.Net in a simple text editor from the ground up over an SQL Server 2000 database, rendered in X/HTML and CSS, targeting Internet Explorer. The system had over 200 users distributed over a WAN.
3. First, we take a look at a product and how it’s data may be edited. Then we create a new Product Description for the product. Finally, we show how access may be restricted to the new Product Description.
4. We access the “Brain Boosters” product to examine the related data subjects or Product Descriptions. Notice that the Intranet covers many information topics for staff to collaborate over.
7. We may now edit the Description, either visually using the 3 rd party WYSIWYG editor, or directly by entering HTML.
8. That’s given us a taste of how the system looks and how we edit a Product Description. Now let’s look at adding a new Product Description to extend the features of this product …
10. We can now provide the new content. We can specify if the content is Text or HTML. We can associate the Description with a pre-defined context.
11. After updating the new Description, we can now see that it has become part of the Product’s content. So we have extended the data points for this product and we can use the scope of this data point to generate output elsewhere in the system, such as a data export to a web site.
12. Now let’s take a look at altering my security privileges, so that I am no longer able to view and edit this type of data …
14. Because I currently have the security privilege to administer other security privileges, a hyperlink to edit privileges is exposed on my profile.
15. We can edit my security privileges here. These are my current security groups. These are my current atomic security access privileges. Collections of these are wrapped up into the Access Groups above. An atomic privilege can limit access to a specific web page, specific data point, or just hide a section within a page from view.
16. Now update my security privileges. Remove the Product Administrator group. Also remove the visibility access to additional Product Descriptions.
17. I no longer have access to the Product Description created earlier.
18. We have seen a small example of how product data could be edited, augmented and secured. This is just one small facet of quite a complex but highly scalable approach to managing the varying data requirements of the Healthspan products.
