Cloud computing is set of resources and services offered through the Internet. Cloud
services are delivered from data centers located throughout the world. Cloud computing
facilitates its consumers by providing virtual resources via internet. The biggest challenge in
cloud computing is the security and privacy problems caused by its multi-tenancy nature and the
outsourcing of infrastructure, sensitive data and critical applications. Enterprises are rapidly adopting
cloud services for their businesses, measures need to be developed so that organizations can be assured
of security in their businesses and can choose a suitable vendor for their computing needs. Cloud
computing depends on the internet as a medium for users to access the required services at any time on
pay-per-use pattern. However this technology is still in its initial stages of development, as it suffers
from threats and vulnerabilities that prevent the users from trusting it. Various malicious activities
from illegal users have threatened this technology such as data misuse, inflexible access control and
limited monitoring. The occurrence of these threats may result into damaging or illegal access of
critical and confidential data of users. In this paper we identify the most vulnerable security
threats/attacks in cloud computing, which will enable both end users and vendors to know a bout
the k ey security threats associated with cloud computing and propose relevant solution directives to
strengthen security in the Cloud environment. We also propose secure cloud architecture for
organizations to strengthen the security.
Join the discussion with Andrew Hay, Chief Evangelist of CloudPassage and Dave Shackleford, Senior Vice President, Research and Chief Technology Officer of IANS.
In this presentation, we will discuss:
- How compliance is affected by using private, hybrid, and public cloud environments
- What to consider when researching providers who offer "PCI-compliant" clouds
- Recommendations for improving compliance and security posture in the cloud

Many IT teams used an “M&M” approach to design network security: create a hard shell or perimeter around the soft interior. For remote users, traditional L3 VPNs extend that perimeter, placing remote users' endpoints directly onto the enterprise network. This puts the enterprise's network and data at risk from a range of threats - compromised credentials can lead to unintended exposure, as attackers move laterally throughout the network environment.
Cloud vs. On-Premises Security: Can you afford not to switch?Zscaler
As the cloud transforms enterprise IT, it brings a lot more savings than cold hard cash. No question, reducing infrastructure costs is the #1 attraction to cloud. But there are two other cost dimensions with huge impact on security that must not be ignored. The payoffs depend on whether you approach security with a cloud vs. on-premises model. An organization’s choices are crucial – both for enterprise security and for the roles of its stakeholders.

Beyond MDM: 5 Things You Must do to Secure Mobile Devices in the EnterpriseCA API Management
Take a fresh approach to IT security and management, designed specifically for mobile
Overview
Twenty years ago, laptops revolutionized how the enterprise conducted business. But with the laptop came a host of new security and manageability challenges that we are arguably still trying to work out. Now, mobile computing promises to be exponentially more disruptive.
It is a mistake to think you can apply yesterday’s laptop thinking to today’s mobile devices and still maintain a secure infrastructure. Mobile devices are radically different from laptops and they are evolving at a completely different pace, so they demand a fresh approach.
As you move your IT Infrastructure into the cloud, how secure can you expect your applications to be? Join Alert Logic and Internap on this webcast for an enlightening discussion on the state of cloud security and how it impacts security management decisions, especially in the context of deploying infrastructure to hosted and cloud environments.
BayThreat Why The Cloud Changes EverythingCloudPassage
Subtitle: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Get DevOps to Love Security
These slides are from a talk delivered by Rand Wacker at BayThreat 2011.
ABSTRACT: Take a look around, you might be surprised who is running servers in the cloud; you might be even more surprised about what they are running. Unfortunately, these people rarely if ever thought to tell the security teams, and that means big problems for us all. Securing servers in the cloud is different, very different, than in a traditional data center, but all the same risks are there. Lets start by understanding who is using the cloud, why it is so different, and what works and doesn't work from our typical security toolbox. Then lets try to solve some of those problems and come up with some best practices to help us and those we work with do what they need…securely.

API Design Methodology - Mike Amundsen, Director of API Architecture, API Aca...CA API Management
At some point, we all need to design and implement APIs for the Web. What makes Web APIs different than typical component APIs? How can you leverage the power of the Internet when creating your Web API? What characteristics to many "great" Web APIs share? Is there a consistent process you can use to make sure you design a Web API that best fits your needs both now and in the future?
In this session Mike Amundsen describes a clear methodology for designing Web APIs (based on the book "RESTful Web APIs" by Richardson and Amundsen) that allows you to map key aspects of your business into a usable, scalable, and flexible interface that will reach your goals while creating a compelling API for both server and client developers. Whether you are looking to implement a private, partner, or public API, these principles will help you focus on the right metrics and design goals to create a successful API.
Liberating the API Economy with Scale-Free Networks - Mike Amundsen, Director...CA API Management
Liberating the API Economy with Scale-Free Networks
The Web exhibits a feature found in many complex systems known as "Scale-Free" or "Power-Law" networks, sometimes called the "long tail" Most people think of the "long tail" as an economic and/or social property. However, it also represents physical and informational properties fundamental to the way the Web works. But the steady increase in major service outages indicate that many current Web APIs, services, and even client applications ignore this basic "law of the Web."
This talk explores the "Scale-Free" rule of complex systems and offers clear and simple advice to those planning to build and/or consume APIs for the Web. Such as what to avoid, what to plan for, what to build, and how to identify & steer clear of clients and services that fail to abide by the rules and, in the process, are making it harder for all of us to liberate the API Economy.

Revisiting Geddes' Outlook Tower - Mike Amundsen, Director of API Architectur...CA API Management
The Information Age, 100 years on
The rise of the computer and the digital revolution is responsible for an explosion of devices, data, and connectedness. These are all enabling what is called the dawning of the Information Age. And software designers, developers, and architects all share an important responsibility for shaping and guiding the world’s progress through this axial age into the future.
However, more than 100 years ago, the work of organizing the world’s information into a single all-encompassing taxonomy had already begun. Partially influenced by the positivist doctrine of Auguste Comte, leading thinkers of the early 20th century such as the librarian Paul Otlet in Belgium, museum curator Patrick Geddes in Scotland, and educator Melvil Dewey in the US were each working to design universal classification systems that would encompass and coordinate the explosion of information appearing in libraries, museums, newspapers, magazines, and eventually even radio, movies, and television.
What did we learn in the last century? What have we forgotten? How does their work affect our current trajectory in transforming the work of software and systems design and development? What can we take from Dewey, Otlet, and Geddes with us in to the next 100 years of the Information Age.
Managing Identity by Giving Up Control - Scott Morrison, SVP & Distinguished ...CA API Management
Identity on the Internet is changing. Social networking has kicked off a massive change in how we integrate identity across applications. This is much more than a simple redesign of security tokens and protocols; instead it is a radical redistribution of power and control over entitlements, shifting it away from the centralized control of a cabal of directory engineers and out to the users themselves.
There are compelling reasons for this shift: it enables scaling of identity administration, and it promotes rapid and agile integration of applications. These are goals shared by the enterprise, but this change has significant implications on infrastructure, people and process. Join us to learn how you can bring modern identity management into the enterprise.
Moving beyond conventional single sign-on to seamless cross-device access with APIs
People are carrying more devices every day – with the average being 2.9 per person. Meanwhile, multitasking has gone into overdrive, as users quickly move from laptop to phone to tablet, expecting a seamless experience when accessing their favorite apps. And this expectation is not just limited to leisure and personal use – it extends to business applications.
Security has broken this seamless workflow and inhibited the mobile “stickiness” businesses are striving to achieve. This webinar with Scott Morrison and Leif Bildoy of CA Technologies will demonstrate how the right combination of identity functionality and secure APIs can help your organization to overcome these challenges and enable the multi-device universe.
You Will Learn
• What challenges must be overcome when supporting multiple mobile app types
• How SSO is evolving past mobile app access to device access
• Why the right implementation of identity and APIs will create consumer stickiness
• How the Internet of Things (IoT) is creating new business opportunities

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).

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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!

5. Introducing New Risk: When the Cloud Attacks
Leveraging the Cloud Nefariously:
• Denial of Service – how can I be
sure that my cloud is not being used to
launch a DoS?
• Cryptographic Analysis– how can I
be sure that my cloud isn’t working
towards breaking someone's
encryption?
• Command & Control – how can I
ensure that my cloud is not providing
an adversary a platform to monitor and
control a cyber attack?

6. Example: Thunderclap Proof of Concept
Thunderclap – “Cloud Computing – A Weapon of Mass Destruction? (DEFCON
2010)”
• Proof of Concept showing how DDoS attack could be run from the cloud
Value Proposition (my interpretation)
• Performance: Massive Bandwidth & Power = Plentiful
• Up Front Cost: Stolen Credit Card Number = Free
• Time: Little to none once initial R&D is completed = Time for hobbies
• Value: Charge $$$ to highest bidder = Make massive profit
Conclusion: Not a bad business model!
