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.

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.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

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.

Lecture13 motion
1. Motion Position of an object: where is it? Velocity of an object: how fast and in what direction is it going? Acceleration of an object: is the speed changing? Is the direction changing?
2. Motion described by vectors Position of an object: r Velocity of an object: v Acceleration of an object: a v This is for when Δt is very small, otherwise these are average quantities a
3. Motion Position of an object: r Velocity of an object: v Acceleration of an object: a v All three vectors can be any direction and magnitude The direction and magnitudes are defined in a coordinate system A coordinate system is simply something we make up to be able to have reference points, e.g. maps. Often, choosing a clever coordinate system makes problem solving easier a
4. Motion in one dimension This object ’s velocity is not uniform… So, there must be acceleration When is velocity positive? Negative? When is acceleration negative? Positive? Does object change direction, or merely go faster and slower? Look at a plot of some objects x-position vs. time:
5. Acceleration in one dimension Acceleration may result in an object either speeding up or slowing down, but in either direction If velocity of an object is constant, acceleration is 0
6. Acceleration in more than one dimension speed of an object is changes, or its direction of motion, or both.
7.
8. Acceleration In the plot below, what’s the acceleration? Δv = 8 Δt = 2 In the plot, what is velocity as a function of time? Equation of a line? y = m x + b v = 4 t
9. Acceleration If the acceleration is constant, we can find the velocity as a function of time:
10. Acceleration If the acceleration is constant, we can find the velocity as a function of time: Definition of acceleration: a = Δv / Δt = (v-v o ) / t (if t o = 0) What about the position? How does it change with time? Consider the definition of average velocity: so … which is the equation of a line with slope = a and Δx = x-x 0 = v Δt So x = x 0 + v Δt
11. Equations of motion ( for Constant Acceleration ) Can use algebra to derive:
12. Gravity Gravity is an acceleration, directed towards the earth. Near the surface of the earth, it’s If the distance from the center of the earth doesn’t change much, it’s ~ constant. Any object that’s falling near the ground has a constant acceleration (forgetting about air resistance) due to the Earth ’s gravity.
13. Free Fall The effects of air resistance are particularly obvious when dropping a small, heavy object such as a rock, as well as a larger light one such as a feather or a piece of paper. However, if the same objects are dropped in a vacuum, they fall with the same acceleration.
14. Free Fall So the equations of motion for free fall: We just changed from x to y, and for a we put in -g. The positive y direction has been chosen to be upwards. If it is chosen to be downwards, the sign of g would need to be reversed.
15. Example problem: Man falls from roof, 5 meters high. How long before he hits the ground, and how fast is he going when he makes contact with ground? -5 = -1/2 (9.8 ms -2 ) t 2 v = (9.8)(1.01) = 9.9 m/s 5m
