June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Urgent Request and Call for Action for Ensuring Safety and Inclusivity at MIT
We, 465 MIT Alumni, Staff, and Students, are writing to express our deep concern, fear, and disappointment regarding the recent protest that took place Thursday afternoon, in front of the MIT Stratton Student Center. While we fully support the principles of free
speech and the right to peaceful assembly, it is essential that we also prioritize the safety and well-being of all members of the MIT
community.
During the protest, a particular slogan was prominently displayed and chanted, which has raised significant concerns. The slogan
"From the [Jordan] river to the [Mediterranean] sea, Palestine will be free!" has been a source of contention due to its potential
implications and the real safety risks it poses to Jewish and Israeli students on campus [See video footage attached]. This slogan
has been time and again associated with calls for the destruction of the State of Israel and has been used in contexts that
promote violence, which raises legitimate concerns about the safety and security of our Jewish and Israeli students and staff.
Furthermore, we would like to draw your attention to recent events that demonstrate the potential dangers associated with this
slogan. During the 2023 Israel-Hamas war, British Home Secretary Suella Braverman proposed criminalizing the use of the slogan
in certain contexts, recognizing the potential harm it can cause. Additionally, on October 11, ‘23, Vienna police banned a
demonstration, citing the inclusion of the phrase "from the river to the sea" in invitations, as it was seen as a portrayal of a violation
of Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
In addition to the use of these derogatory messages, several attendees of the event used hateful wordings and messages towards
Jewish and Israeli bystanders. In one case, a perpetrator aggressively held their bicycles as intended to harm a Jewish MIT student,
stating that “[your] ancestors did not die in the Holocaust so they could kill Palestinians” [See video footage attached]. In another
incident, protesters chanted “one solution, intifada revolution”. In the context of the on-going Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the word
"Intifada" means the armed and violent Palestinian insurrection targeting Israelis, including civilians, which resulted in the killing of
thousands of Israelis in the last few decades.
On Oct. 22nd, a statement by MIT CAA (Coalition Against Apartheid) came to our attention. In this document, MIT CCA states that
they "hold the Israeli regime responsible for all unfolding violence". They later call the October 7th terror attack a "response to
the settler colonial regime", and continue justifying it throughout the document.
In this matter, MIT CAA is justifying the heinous and barbaric crimes committed on Oct 7th. Furthermore, these statements have the
potential to fuel acts of aggression

To enable SCIENTISTS to transfer their new technologies to the market. To create an additional source of INCOME for the INSTITUTE so that more independent research can be conducted. Three important elements that make an idea patentable:
1) The invention must be new: the same idea can’t have been
published before in any form; 2) There must be some inventive step of ‘non-obviousness’.
This can be hard to define and depends on the context; 3) The disclosure in a patent must be sufficient for a skilled
person to reproduce the invention with only routine effort; Technology Transfer Company - modus operandi; OUR PURPOSE- To provoke transformative scientific breakthroughs that will shape the future of humanity; SCIENTIFIC STAFF- 300 Principal investigators, >2,000 Research students and PhDs; 5 FACULTIES – BASIC SCIENCE, Biology, Physics, Biochemistry, Math/CS

Presenting to Investors & the Media.pdf
Presenting to Investors and the Media, lecture by Drew Levinson, LifeSci Communications to mHealth Israel. Three sections: Making a good presentation, Handling
interviews with reporters and Answers that resonate. PRESENTING TO INVESTORS AND THE MEDIA- Compelling delivery, Commanding a room, • Lasting Impact. A good presentation includes Information, Motivation and Excitement. Never put them to sleep. Audience impact includes content, credibility and delivery. Decisions are made leading to potential partnerships, winning business, so much more than a deck, your business, your brand, you. How to captivate begins with storytelling and conversation. More than features- benefits, humanize, positive impact. Don't complicate your message with jargon. Feel the passion- contagious, vision, determination. Know your audience- who are they, what do they know about you, how much do they know, interests, concerns. Articulate your vision- see it, feel it, believe in it. Take them on your journey- compelling narrative, make it personal, why are you doing this, inspiration. Your team- experienced, knowledgeable, aligned, execute. Risks and challenges- recognize, address, plan to mitigate. Test drive your room. What does it look like? Where is the podium? Where will I be standing? Where will you be sitting? Feel comfortable. Three parts to attention. The beginning- attention, interest, what's in it for them, entusiasm, preview. The middle- core, insights, challenges, solutions, relatable. The ending- summary, reinforce, messages, benefits, call to action, keep the momentum going. How to answer questions. The Four R's: repeat, reinforce, refer, remember. Talking to reporters- necessity; Good interview can enhance reputation; Bad interview can tarnish reputation; Preparation is vital. Shapes public opinion: Elevates your brand; Establishes authority; Showcases your business; A bridge; Reputation; Trust; Visibility. Know the reporter. Audience; What have they written; Previous stories; Questions asked. Concise- clear, succinct, engaging. Make it relatable: Stories; Anecdotes; Experiences; Examples; Metaphors; Connect. Honesty and transparency. It is okay not to know every answer. You don’t have to answer every question. Control the narrative. What not to do when talking to reporters. Come up with another way to say no comment. What to wear- solid colors, blues and grays, nothing distracting. Expertise, passion, vision, lasting impression, connections. High stakes, high rewards. Preparation; Know your audience; Deliver with confidence; Enthusiasm; Authenticity. Begin the journey. Engage in dialogue; Build relationships; Inspire trust and confidence; Valued; Enlightened; Motivated and excited.

Urgent Request and Call for Action for Ensuring Safety and Inclusivity at MIT
We, 465 MIT Alumni, Staff, and Students, are writing to express our deep concern, fear, and disappointment regarding the recent protest that took place Thursday afternoon, in front of the MIT Stratton Student Center. While we fully support the principles of free
speech and the right to peaceful assembly, it is essential that we also prioritize the safety and well-being of all members of the MIT
community.
During the protest, a particular slogan was prominently displayed and chanted, which has raised significant concerns. The slogan
"From the [Jordan] river to the [Mediterranean] sea, Palestine will be free!" has been a source of contention due to its potential
implications and the real safety risks it poses to Jewish and Israeli students on campus [See video footage attached]. This slogan
has been time and again associated with calls for the destruction of the State of Israel and has been used in contexts that
promote violence, which raises legitimate concerns about the safety and security of our Jewish and Israeli students and staff.
Furthermore, we would like to draw your attention to recent events that demonstrate the potential dangers associated with this
slogan. During the 2023 Israel-Hamas war, British Home Secretary Suella Braverman proposed criminalizing the use of the slogan
in certain contexts, recognizing the potential harm it can cause. Additionally, on October 11, ‘23, Vienna police banned a
demonstration, citing the inclusion of the phrase "from the river to the sea" in invitations, as it was seen as a portrayal of a violation
of Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
In addition to the use of these derogatory messages, several attendees of the event used hateful wordings and messages towards
Jewish and Israeli bystanders. In one case, a perpetrator aggressively held their bicycles as intended to harm a Jewish MIT student,
stating that “[your] ancestors did not die in the Holocaust so they could kill Palestinians” [See video footage attached]. In another
incident, protesters chanted “one solution, intifada revolution”. In the context of the on-going Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the word
"Intifada" means the armed and violent Palestinian insurrection targeting Israelis, including civilians, which resulted in the killing of
thousands of Israelis in the last few decades.
On Oct. 22nd, a statement by MIT CAA (Coalition Against Apartheid) came to our attention. In this document, MIT CCA states that
they "hold the Israeli regime responsible for all unfolding violence". They later call the October 7th terror attack a "response to
the settler colonial regime", and continue justifying it throughout the document.
In this matter, MIT CAA is justifying the heinous and barbaric crimes committed on Oct 7th. Furthermore, these statements have the
potential to fuel acts of aggression

Presenting to Investors & the Media.pdf
Presenting to Investors and the Media, lecture by Drew Levinson, LifeSci Communications to mHealth Israel. Three sections: Making a good presentation, Handling
interviews with reporters and Answers that resonate. PRESENTING TO INVESTORS AND THE MEDIA- Compelling delivery, Commanding a room, • Lasting Impact. A good presentation includes Information, Motivation and Excitement. Never put them to sleep. Audience impact includes content, credibility and delivery. Decisions are made leading to potential partnerships, winning business, so much more than a deck, your business, your brand, you. How to captivate begins with storytelling and conversation. More than features- benefits, humanize, positive impact. Don't complicate your message with jargon. Feel the passion- contagious, vision, determination. Know your audience- who are they, what do they know about you, how much do they know, interests, concerns. Articulate your vision- see it, feel it, believe in it. Take them on your journey- compelling narrative, make it personal, why are you doing this, inspiration. Your team- experienced, knowledgeable, aligned, execute. Risks and challenges- recognize, address, plan to mitigate. Test drive your room. What does it look like? Where is the podium? Where will I be standing? Where will you be sitting? Feel comfortable. Three parts to attention. The beginning- attention, interest, what's in it for them, entusiasm, preview. The middle- core, insights, challenges, solutions, relatable. The ending- summary, reinforce, messages, benefits, call to action, keep the momentum going. How to answer questions. The Four R's: repeat, reinforce, refer, remember. Talking to reporters- necessity; Good interview can enhance reputation; Bad interview can tarnish reputation; Preparation is vital. Shapes public opinion: Elevates your brand; Establishes authority; Showcases your business; A bridge; Reputation; Trust; Visibility. Know the reporter. Audience; What have they written; Previous stories; Questions asked. Concise- clear, succinct, engaging. Make it relatable: Stories; Anecdotes; Experiences; Examples; Metaphors; Connect. Honesty and transparency. It is okay not to know every answer. You don’t have to answer every question. Control the narrative. What not to do when talking to reporters. Come up with another way to say no comment. What to wear- solid colors, blues and grays, nothing distracting. Expertise, passion, vision, lasting impression, connections. High stakes, high rewards. Preparation; Know your audience; Deliver with confidence; Enthusiasm; Authenticity. Begin the journey. Engage in dialogue; Build relationships; Inspire trust and confidence; Valued; Enlightened; Motivated and excited.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
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.

We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
National Security Agency - NSA mobile device best practices
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs
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).

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).
