Although the term Scrum was first used in ‘The New New Product Development Game’ (1986) drawing parallels with a scrum in rugby, it is not the only sport where parallels and analogies can be drawn with the Scrum framework; others including ten pin bowling and cricket.
In this session we will introduce the parallels between cricket and Scrum, consider how a change in the principles and values of the England test cricket team changed their fortunes, and ask if those principles could be applied by Scrum Teams?
Building upon this, attendees will be invited to take part in an interactive exercise where they will look to identify and consider individual and team values. Working in groups they will identify, discuss and agree on a set of values before considering how being part of a team could both amplify and, potentially compromise, those values. This will culminate on identifying ways in which the needs of the team can be balanced with those of the individuals in it.
Scrum Master Lessons from my 4 Year Old SonRyan Ripley
At a recent cookout, my 4 year old son, Dawson, ran for the back yard and easily joined a game of hide and seek. Watching this unfold, I realized that these kids are naturally agile. They got straight to playing (the value) and didn’t need a lot of ceremony to get there. They kids all did a quick hello, told Dawson what game they were playing, and invited him to join in (daily scrum). Then they played.
He and his friends self-organize, self-manage, and solve problems on the fly. They naturally exhibit the agile values and scrum practices that many adults struggle with daily.
For example, most parents have been bombarded with an unending stream of “Why’s?” from their child. Why does this work? Why did that happen? Why? Why? Why? While this line of questioning can be stressing, it is also invaluable to finding the root cause of an issue. Scrum teams use this approach – called The 5-Why’s – to get past technical issues and down to interpersonal issues that could be hindering the team.
This session is a fun discussion about the behaviors I’ve noticed in my son and how they translate to important lessons that all scrum master need to learn to better serve their teams.

How to survive the zombie scrum apocalypse Mia Horrigan
A couple of years ago Christiaan Verwijs and Johannes Schartau coined the term ‘Zombie-Scrum’. What's it all about?
Well, at first sight Zombie Scrum seems to be normal Scrum. But it lacks a beating heart. The Scrum teams do all the Scrum events but a potential releasable increment is rarely the result of a Sprint. Zombie Scrum teams have a very unambitious definition of what ‘done’ means, and no drive to extend it. They see themselves as a cog in the wheel, unable and unwilling to change anything and have a real impact: I’m only here to code! Zombie Scrum teams show no response to a failed or successful Sprint and also don’t have any intention to improve their situation. Actually nobody cares about this team. The stakeholders have forgotten the existence of this team long time ago.
Zombie Scrum is Scrum, but without the beating heart of working software and its on the rise. This workshop will help you understand how to recognise the symptoms and cuases of Zombie Scrum and what you can do to get started to combat and treat Zombie-Scrum. Knowing what causes Zombie Scrum might help prevent a further outbreak and prevent the apocalypse
As teams begin to work in Scrum, this question always comes up - is "Scrum Master" really a full-time role?
This presentation will explore that question by examining the guidance in the agile frameworks, the patterns of use in industry, and the recommendations from experts in the field.
How would we define Scrum? How could we convince people to do Scrum? I believe that agreements are more powerful than rules. I also believe that Scrum implements patterns that most of us have experienced in our own most successful projects. Let's test that belief and see how we can apply that to facilitating Scrum adoption. During this interactive workshop, we:
• Share and reflect on the experiences from our own best projects
• Look for patterns in those projects
• Compare Scrum with our own best experiences
• Explore an agreement-based adoption strategy
The workshop also includes some additional food for thought: What if we considered the Scrum Flow as a series of opportunities to ask ourselves powerful questions?

SOCRadar Research Team: Latest Activities of IntelBrokerSOCRadar
The European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation (Europol) has suffered an alleged data breach after a notorious threat actor claimed to have exfiltrated data from its systems. Infamous data leaker IntelBroker posted on the even more infamous BreachForums hacking forum, saying that Europol suffered a data breach this month.
The alleged breach affected Europol agencies CCSE, EC3, Europol Platform for Experts, Law Enforcement Forum, and SIRIUS. Infiltration of these entities can disrupt ongoing investigations and compromise sensitive intelligence shared among international law enforcement agencies.
However, this is neither the first nor the last activity of IntekBroker. We have compiled for you what happened in the last few days. To track such hacker activities on dark web sources like hacker forums, private Telegram channels, and other hidden platforms where cyber threats often originate, you can check SOCRadar’s Dark Web News.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

6. Six parallels between cricket and Scrum
1. Cricket, like Scrum, is iterative
Scrum Time-box Scrum Overview Cricket Time-box Cricketing Parallel
Daily Scrum
At the Daily Scrum the Scrum Team have the ability to
inspect their progress toward the Sprint Goal and adapt
their plan for the day ahead
Single Delivery
Before each ball is bowled the
fi
elding team have the
opportunity to respond to the previous ball bowled and
tweak their strategy. They can, for example, position
fi
elders in the best place to take a wicket or to prevent
the batting team scoring runs
Sprint
At the end of a Sprint a Scrum Team will review the
completed work, generate new ideas for delivery,
reprioritise the Product Backlog and pivot to ensure
maximum value is delivered
Over
At the end of each over the
fi
elding team have the
chance to take stock of the state of the game and
change direction through a change of bowler (and
potentially bowling style) from the other end of the pitch
Release
Although a Product Increment may be potentially
releasable at the end of a Sprint, it is often the case that
the outcomes from several Sprints are combined to
form a release
Session /
Innings
Depending upon the format of the game, teams will
have milestones that they will want to reach after ‘x’
overs. The type and circumstance of the game will
determine number of overs that contribute to a
milestone and what that milestone may be

9. Six parallels between cricket and Scrum
4. Cricket, like Scrum, can generate insightful metrics
10. “The beauty of stats is that they never tell you
anything about one instance. They can show you
patterns, they can show you trends, and they can
hopefully lead you to a better understanding of what
is going on, but on any given day it might be the
right thing to bowl first.”
Nathan Leamon – Sky Sports
Six parallels between cricket and Scrum
5. Cricket, like Scrum, will use empirical evidence
11. “Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique
appeal to the fact that is should be played not
only within its Laws but also within the Spirit of
the Game. Any action which is see to abuse
this Spirit causes injury to the game itself.”
Preamble to the Laws: Spirit of Cricket
Six parallels between cricket and Scrum
6. Cricket, like Scrum, embodies a number of values
12. An Agile Mindset in Cricket
“In taking this role on, I am acutely aware
of the significant challenges the team
faces at present, and I strongly believe
in my ability to help the team emerge
as a stronger force once we’ve
confronted them head-on. I’m no
stranger to bringing about change
within a team environment, and I can’t
wait to get started.”
Brendan McCullum
13. What is ‘Bazball’?
1. A less re
fl

2. No negative chat
3. A win-at-all-costs mentality
4. No fear of failure
5. Praise – even for the little things
6. Simplicity of message
7. Embracing mental freedom and fun

the invisible, feels the
intangible and achieves the
impossible”
Winston Churchill

16. A win-at-all-costs mentality
“Whatever anybody says or
does, assume positive intent.
You will be amazed at how
your whole approach to a
person or problem becomes
very different.”
Indra Nooyi

17. No fear of failure
“I can accept failure,
everyone fails at
something. But I can’t
accept not trying.”

22. Exploring Core Values
First Round: 5 minutes work as an individual
• Spread out the ‘Core Values’ cards so
that everyone in your group can see
them
• What’s really important to you as an
individual? Select these yourself
• Put all unselected core values back in
the box
23. Exploring Core Values
Second Round: 5 minutes working as a team
• Ruthlessly prioritise
• As a team discuss and come to a
consensus on the
fi
ve core values you
would have if you were a team
24. Exploring Core Values
Third Round: 10 minutes understanding the team’s ‘Core Values’
Discuss:-
• How could being part of a team
amplify your ‘core values’?
• How could being part of a team
compromise your ‘core values’?
• How could you balance your individual
needs with that of the team?
25. Howzat! How a change in mindset can change your success
In conclusion…
• Cricket is like Scrum
• Throw yourself in and immerse yourself in this
new approach to delivery, don’t just dip your
toe in the water
• Promote a positive transition. Be aware of key
di
ff
erences between what has gone before
and what you are trying to achieve
• Acknowledge that as you take on a change in
mindset, you may not always be successful
• Create a supportive culture
