Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
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.

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).

National Day of Civic Hacking June 2015
This Year Compared to Previous
Ryan Dolan, Minneapolis
“It doesn’t even compare to the other hackathons
I’ve worked at. Before I was begging people to
use the data, this time had a line of people to talk
to me. The democratization of data is going to
create a wow factor that has the biggest impact
through the API.”
Scaling Outreach in Developer Community
Gerson Vasquez, Atlanta
“We now have lot of momentum, but we’d like to build on it. Why
not use the same tools the software developers are using (slack,
github, hackpad, etc.) to reach them virtually — i.e. people in
Miami need to know that our group exists.”
Internal Team Development Opportunities
Alexandra Barker, Boston
“Consider adding concrete measures to our outreach goals
and develop internal training for our team. We don’t
currently have training for this audience of our users. ”

Technical Features:
Open source (GeoJSON) shapefiles packaged with statistical data
Built in FIPS code translation for lat/long, addresses, ZIP codes
Modular architecture which dramatically reduces time to create mashups with 3rd party data
Developed in JavaScript for maximum flexibility, interoperability and speed from first blush to a working web application

The City SDK is an open data Platform-based on the Census API. What makes it a “Platform” is its ability to promote interaction among data consumers and producers. Cities and communities provide context or the opportunity for services, innovation, and social good. The interaction created among data producers and consumers is characteristic of a growing ecosystem involving academia, industry, innovation hubs, and other open government data sources and initiatives. The Federal data supply chain is changing. Prior focus was about releasing high value data sets – ideally through API’s. Federal agencies like the Census Bureau continue to focus on data dissemination and making our open data discoverable and useable. What we are finding out is that the “scaling” of our dissemination and value creation process is enabled by the market through new business models. The emerging integration of data networks with socioeconomic data networks is leading to new value creation in cities and communities.
The Purshable team was able to present their app to US Chief Data Scientist DJ Patil during the National Day of Civic Hacking.
This app implements two functionalities: evaluate and explore. In the evaluate page, after a user inputs an address name, a zip code, an “accessibility score” based on different features (details come later in this document) will be computed and returned to the user and a short summary report will be generated as well. Alternatively, in the explore page, a user can specify a specific geographical container (i.e., state, county or census tract), and a specific sub-level of places to rank (i.e., county, city, or zip code). As a result accessibility scores will be computed at the requested container and level of places and a ranked list of places will returned to the user. Particularly, each feature that is involved in the ranking is scored on a 0 to 100 scale and assigned a weight in the final scoring function. By default, all features have the same weights; but the weights can be adjusted by the users according to their different preferences.
