Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
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).

11. If the Sun is a
star, why does
it look so big
compared to
allof those
other stars?
12. Star
Large, spherical ball of gas that produces its own
energy by nuclear fusion.
Nuclear fusion
Atomic nuclei combine
to form larger nuclei,
releasing energy in the process
13. The Sun’s fusion reaction is called
Hydrogen Fusion:
H+H+H+H He + energy (heat)
[ interpretation: 4 atoms of Hydrogen(H) combine to produce
one atom of Helium(He), plus a little bit of heat ]
The “fuel” for this reaction is atoms of hydrogen;
the “products” are helium atoms plus heat (energy)
14. Stars commonly appear clumped together as star clusters --
gravitationally-bound groups of stars, each one containing
hundreds to thousands of stars
16. Stars, star clusters, etc. collect into much larger
groups called galaxies.
The Sun is a star in the Milky Way Galaxy.
17. The Milky Way Galaxy is a so-called spiral galaxy. This picture of a
different spiral galaxy, one that is seen face-on.
All of the single stars (points of light) seen in this photo are stars that
are in our own Milky Way Galaxy
18. A spiral Galaxy seen Edge-on
-the actual 3D-shaped is like a pancake with a lump in the center
19. How big is a galaxy?
# of stars: about a billion or so (smallest)
- up to 100’s of billions for
large galaxies
Diameter: Very large: what units of distance should
be used?
-- using miles gives awkwardly
numbers.
-- a larger unit is needed.
-- for example…..
20.
21. Light Year --is based on the “speed of light”: 186,000 miles/sec
Defn: 1 Light Year (1 LY) = the distance that light travels in one year.
*** - even YOU can figure it out! ***
Compute 1 LY from the (well-known??) equation:
“distance = velocity x time”
distance = speed of light x time (one year)
1 LY = (186,000 mi/sec) x (~31 million sec/yr)
= 5.86 Trillion miles ( roughly 6 trillion)
( = 5,860,000,000,000 miles )
22. Keep this point in mind about the connection between light-travel-time and
distances:
** It takes light one year to travel a distance of one light-year **
Try to make all 3 columns of the table below make good sense to you.
23. Light-Travel-Time from the Earth
TO TIME DISTANCE
a. the moon 1.25 sec 1.25 light-seconds
b. the sun 8.5 minutes 8.5 light-minutes
c. Pluto ~6 hours
d. Alpha Cen 4.3 yrs 4.3 LY
e. North Star 650 years 650 LY
f. M31 2.5 million yrs 2.5 M. LY
..so just keep in mind that all of those units of length
are based on the speed of light;
- for example: 1 light-minute = the distance that light travels in one minute
26. Map of Milky Way
Our Sun(yellow dot) is in a spiral arm, ½-way out
27. Galaxies contain more than just stars. The irregular-looking blobs are either
hot (pink) or cold (dark) interstellar clouds
28. Galaxies occur in galaxy clusters.
This is M31 (the Andromeda Galaxy)…
…. and friends (2 smaller neighboring galaxies)
- sort of a “triple galaxy”
29. The “Local Group” is the name of the (small) cluster of galaxies to which the
Milky Way belongs. The map above shows about 2/3 of its members (fewer
than 40, total).
30. The galaxies closest to the Milky Way
The two Magellanic Clouds(LMC & SMC) are easily visible to the naked eye.
34. Distance over 5 BILLION LY. The galaxies look progressively smaller as we
look at more distance clusters simply because of the increased distance. The
largest galaxies in large clusters are all about the same size.
35. This is a map
of
superclusters
out to
1 billion LY
from the
Milky Way
(which is at
the center)
*****
Supercluster:
– a cluster of
galaxy
clusters
******
# of galaxies
within 1 B ly
> 60 million;
*****
# of stars ~
250,000
trillion
36. What can you see with the naked eye? [outside of the Solar System]
- Milky Way stars! (meaning only stars in our own galaxy)
i.e., you cannot see any individual stars in any other
galaxy;-- they’re just too far and too faint
- 3 other galaxies, ALL in the Local Group:
M31, LMC, SMC
Note: Every star visible to your eye is part of the Milky Way!
37. • Numbers to Know
• Distance to nearest star ---------------- 4.3 Light Years
– ( typical distance between stars )
• Size of Milky Way Galaxy (a typical “big” galaxy):
• Number of stars -------- 400 Billion
• Diameter -------- 100,000 Light Years
• # of stars in ….
• our Solar System ------------- 1
• a star cluster ------------ 100’s to 1000’s
• a galaxy ------------ Billions: ( ~ a billion to
~ a trillion
38. Heirarchical structure of the Universe from largest to smallest
The Universe: includes all objects below
plus all of the space in between
Supercluster largest; most stars
Galaxy cluster
galaxy
star cluster
planetary system (e.g., Solar System) one star per system
stars
planets
moons smallest (diameter)
