The document provides information on operationalizing YARA for analyzing malware indicators. It begins with an introduction to YARA and discusses how YARA breaks rules down into atomic substrings called "atoms" to efficiently scan for malware patterns. Examples are given of atoms in regular expressions and hexadecimal strings. The document then demonstrates how YARA can be used to detect malware indicators in network traffic and static files by writing YARA rules with relevant string patterns and associated conditions.

Strong result driven by higher margins
• Margins benefit from lower European gas prices and stronger US dollar
• Continued volume and margin growth in Brazil
• Further growth in Latin America with OFD and Galvani acquisitions
• Proposed dividend NOK 13 per share, 47% of net income
Yara’s fourth-quarter net income after non-controlling interests was
NOK 1,860 million, compared with NOK 63 million a year earlier.
Excluding net foreign exchange gain/loss and special items, the result
was NOK 2,253 million, compared with NOK 776 million in fourth
quarter 2013. The corresponding earnings per share were NOK 8.17
compared with NOK 2.80 a year earlier.
“Yara reports strong fourth-quarter results with improved margins,
lower natural gas cost in Europe and a stronger US dollar,” said Torgeir
Kvidal, acting Chief Executive Officer of Yara.
“Our Brazilian activities continue to perform well, with both higher volumes
and margins. We are also ahead of plan with synergy capture from the Bunge
acquisition, with USD 55 million realized in 2014 ,” said Torgeir Kvidal.

The technologies and people we are designing experiences for are constantly changing, in most cases they are changing at a rate that is difficult keep up with. When we think about how our teams are structured and the design processes we use in light of this challenge, a new design problem (or problem space) emerges, one that requires us to focus inward. How do we structure our teams and processes to be resilient? What would happen if we looked at our teams and design process as IA’s, Designers, Researchers? What strategies would we put in place to help them be successful? This talk will look at challenges we face leading, supporting, or simply being a part of design teams creating experiences for user groups with changing technological needs.

Introducing Intelligence Into Your Malware AnalysisBrian Baskin
With malware becoming more prevalent, and the pool of capable reversers falling short of overall need, there is a greater need to provide quick and efficient malware analysis for network defense. While many analysts have a grasp on how to appropriately reverse malware, there is large room for improvement by extracting critical indicators, correlating on key details, and cataloging artifacts in a way to improve your corporate response for the next attack. This talk will cover beyond the basics of malware analysis and focus on critical indicators that should analysts should focus on for attribution and better reporting.

Hadoop World 2011: Building a Model of Organic Link Traffic - Michael Dewar -...Cloudera, Inc.
At bit.ly, we study behaviour on the internet by capturing clicks on shortened URLs. This link traffic comes in many forms, yet when studying human behaviour, we are only interested in 'organic' traffic: the traffic patterns caused by actual humans clicking on links that have been shared on the social web. This session will look at a model to extract and analyze these patterns by employing Python/Numpy, Streaming Hadoop, and machine learning. This model lets us extract the traffic we’re interested in from the variety of patterns generated by inorganic entities following bit.ly links.

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!

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.
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.

YARA -‐ Atoms
/(abc|efg)/
Sometimes a single atom is enough (like in the previous example "abc" is
enough for finding /abc.*ed[0-9]+fgh/), but sometimes a single atom isn't
enough like in the regexp /(abc|efg)/. In this case YARA must search for both
"abc" AND "efg" and fully evaluate the regexp whenever one of those atoms is
found.
