Achieving Supply Chain Traceability through Data ScienceER-RAQABI El Mehdi
Falsification is a significant risk within any supply chain. The longer the process or the chain, the higher the risk that the customer gets a falsified product or service. Including data science as a tool to extract knowledge may provide insights about the crucial points where the falsification process of products and services takes place within a supply chain. In several papers, this problem is discussed and the main methods used are RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and CSFs (Critical Success Factors) as well as the emerging block chain technology. The data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence aspects remain less discovered compared to others and provide a high potential to solve the traceability issue. By incorporating data science and robots in crucial falsification points within a supply chain, traceability can be achieved. Robot will either achieve the tasks with high falsification risk or inspect the output of these tasks once achieved by humans. If the products and services contain unique features that robots can learn through supervised learning and which humans cannot easily falsify, falsification risk can be significantly reduced. By achieving a robot level performance that is higher than the human level performance on this aspect, it will become difficult to unethical people to falsify products and services and their originality will be consequently maintained and sustained.

Duplicate payments, duplicate vendors, and segregation of duties in accounts payable are still the top tests being run by auditors using analytics. They are simple, effective, and save money which always helps the business case for analytics. Further, vendor and related payments fraud is the #1 fraud (in volume) affecting all organizations – big and small, public and private, regardless of the industry and sector. Excel templates will be provided with admission to assist to complete all testing and visualizations using graphs. Further data request letters and analytic audit programs will be provided to “jump start” your audit efforts in the accounts payable and vendor management areas.
Specific learning objectives include:
o Run over 20….key, proactive error and fraud tests in the areas of the accounts payable, vendor masterfiles, and purchase order files, all in Excel.
o Map the report results to an audit program to produce an analytically-enabled audit program.
o Discover the top frauds and corruption schemes along with top cost efficiencies to enact within accounts payable reviews.
o Distinguish between the top major accounting systems used when extracting accounts payable and vendor masterfile data and obtain a standard data request to aid the extractions
o Complete a multiple perspective visualization review of your accounts payable data including time based, amount based, company/profit center based, enterer, etc.
These are the slides. If you would like the associated data files they are available for download after payment. Videos of these sessions are available for free.

Big Data Explained - Case study: Website Analyticsdeep.bi
This is an example case study showing what big data can mean for a small website that generates just 5000 visits a day.
It all depends on what we want do get from our assets like website traffic. If we only measure the number of people who visited our site, then we do not need to worry about “big data”. We just have to count total visits (5000 a day, 150 000 monthly).
But by using just the simple measure we know nothing about our visitors / customers. So, it pretty useless.
On the following slides we present what a website owner can gain from advanced website analytics and why big data technologies are recommended.

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!

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.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
