Alkmaar es una antigua ciudad que conserva su estructura desde hace siglos, y que es famosa por su tradicional “kaasmart”, o mercado del queso que se celebra desde hace unos 400 años, los viernes de los meses veraniegos. Las grandes ruedas de queso llegan hasta allí con barcazas y son descargadas por cuatro grupos de siete mozos del gremio de porteadores. Éstos visten de blanco y se distinguen por el color del sombrero. El queso se traslada en andas hasta el “waaggebouw” almacén público para pesarlo. Después de la degustación, el queso se subasta por “handdjeklap” sistema según el cual los vendedores chocan las palmas entre sí. El espectáculo dura unas tres horas y tiene una gran expectación de turistas, que luego recorren las estrechas calles alrededor de la plaza, llenas de paradas y tiendas que no sólo venden queso.
Practical and Actionable Threat Intelligence CollectionSeamus Tuohy
A great deal of the existing human rights reporting and analysis aggregate and strip away contextual information in order to produce “quantified knowledge” that is technically reliable and useful for governmental decision making. The results produced often end up too delayed, partial, distorted, and misleading to be used by local actors and human rights defenders to directly respond to the threats that they face. Those who could benefit most from the human rights knowledge being collected and shared in the digital world are those that existing repositories of information serve the least.
In this presentation I will provide concrete guidance on approaches for adopting data-rich, practical, and actionable threat information collection. In this content heavy 1.5 hour talk I will discuss a range of tools and techniques for seeking out sources of actionable information, distinguishing valuable information from useless but interesting information, and streamlining your information collection and analysis process to allow you to focus on your real work.
This talk WON’T be focused on collecting or sharing threat intelligence and/or human rights research aimed at evidence creation or changing the public dialogue. It WILL be focused on helping you identify, collect, and use publicly available sources of information to respond to your changing threat landscape.
Equip yourself with AI-driven research, instant forward intelligence, auto scenarios & collaborative strategic thinking to plan your future & act in time.
The system helps you to define, gather, analyze, prioritize and distribute forward intelligence about products, customers, competitors, policies, strategies and your environment to support you in 'making better decisions today'.

Privacy is on the minds of people everywhere, including your customers and users. Along with a flurry of new legislation that is already in place or in progress around the world or the US states you do operate in, having a formal privacy program in your company or organization is becoming mandatory. This webinar will cover the basics of how to start a privacy program for organizations of all sizes. Secratic's Managing Partner and Founder, Daniel Ayala, will also review how to build privacy into the products and services you sell to achieve a better competitive advantage and build the trust of your customers, employees and business partners.

Please discuss the various limitations involving the efficiency of the intelligence cycle. Do not make all your points about just one of the readings. Please ensure that you make appropriate use, in-text citation, and reference to available source information to support your perspective (be sure to include why you consider these issues important).
Intelligence Cycle
The Central Intelligence Agency (2013) has describe the intelligence cycle as the following:
Planning and Direction – essentially understanding what to do and how to do it
Collection – Collecting information overtly or covertly through different means
Processing – Put the collected intelligence into a report
Analysis and Production – Read and analyze the information and understand what is needed and what isn’t and produce a product in a way that will be easily read and understood by the customer (give assessments)
Dissemination – Give the final product to the requestor / customer and ensure that those who need to know receive it
National standards and guidelines vs policies and procedures of agencies
Carter, Chermak, McGarrell, Carter, and Drew (2012) indicated in their findings that
…respondents indicated that they were familiar with national standards and guidelines, they also expressed the belief that the policies and procedures within their agency have yet to reconcile with these requirements. Similarly, the respondents noted they were aware of the threats, but identified a need to build a capacity to better identify these threats and noted shortages in resources and personnel in accomplishing these goals. Also, they were aware of key civil rights and privacy issues, but respondents reported there is considerable work that needs to be done in their agencies to ensure agencies are fully compliant
Because of these setbacks, the intelligence cycle cannot be 100% efficient due to analysts attempting to understand which sets of policies to follow (will it be their respective agency’s ones or the national standards?). Also, this would also come into question as to there being any backlash if one set is followed but not the other due to the different policies. As well as agencies ensuring that civil rights and privacy issues are being protected.
Acts, Laws, and Entities
Due to different laws that exist, the efficiency of the intelligence cycle to collect information is hindered. Such acts and laws would include the USA PATRIOT Act, USA FREEDOM Act, and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. Law enforcement agencies before were able to wiretap conversations and obtain records regarding calls, telephone numbers, etc. that could be viable into stopping terrorist plots and gave LE agencies more tools to conduct counterintelligence (FBI, n.d.). However, due to the population not liking that LE agencies could conduct such activities, more laws and acts were passed to limit LE agencies ability to conduct such activities and required them to ob.
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.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

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!
