What Great Looks Like - The Key to Unlocking Performance through PeoplePhill Bolland
You want great people in your organisation but do you really know 'What Great Looks Like'?
If you want to bring the right people in and get them to perform once they're there, you need to ask, "do you care more about what they've done in the past for someone else or what they'll do for you in the future?". This presentation reveals the secret to creating a great workforce that will take your business forward.
The way drivers interact with their cars is evolving, driven by changes in domains like car technology, consumer electronics, demography and economics.
Therefore, the ultimate challenge for HMI experts is the creation of an interface that is engaging, functional and easy to reach and use. Information technology and software that enables next generation multimodal, multi-touch and multi-zone HMI design is the key for OEMs.
The 2nd international conference automotive cockpit HMI USA 2015 will draw together extensive experience from industry professionals and encourage the exchange of knowledge, and promote dialogue in an interactive networking surrounding.

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.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

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.

can be better understood
• The USDOT uses infographics to explain how
connected vehicle applications would work in a real-
world situation
Ensure subject matter experts review your infographics.
Small changes can impact the accuracy of your message.
8. COMMUNICATIONS TOOL: ANIMATION
• Animation is a powerful tool to help
tell a story
• Animated videos can be silent or
include narration
• Narration is important in
communicating key messages that
cannot be conveyed solely through
visuals
Get scripts approved before starting the
animation work.
Make sure the animation has closed captioning
when required.
9. COMMUNICATIONS TOOL: TRADE SHOW DISPLAYS
• Signage at trade shows can help explain the
importance of your display
Keep signage simple and use promotional flyers to provide more
detailed information.
10. COMMUNICATIONS TOOL:

Make sure you are familiar with the copyright license for your stock
photo company.
Talk to your attorney before uploading modified images on your
website for download.
11. COMMUNICATIONS TOOL:
DOWNLOADABLE IMAGES
• A creative image that tells a story will be popular with
media outlets
Ensure high-resolution versions are available
for download from your website.
12. COMMUNICATIONS TOOL: POSTERS
• Posters are an inexpensive, non-controversial
promotional item that can be distributed at
trade shows
Ensure posters are high quality
and attention grabbing.
13. COMMUNICATIONS TOOL: NEWSLETTERS
