With the right skills, tools and software, you can protect yourself and remain secure. This session will take attendees from no knowledge of open source web security tools to a deep understanding of how to use them and their growing set of capabilities.
This is a multi-faceted workshop that explores new concepts in web security. After a solid grounding in well-known exploits like cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgeries (CSRF), I'll demonstrate how traditional exploits are being used together and with other technologies like Ajax to launch sophisticated attacks that penetrate firewalls, target users, and spread like worms. I'll then discuss some ideas for the future, such as evaluating trends to identify suspicious activity and understanding human tendencies and behavior to help provide a better, more secure user experience.
The PPT gives introduction about the ransomware attack which took place in 2013. It also have terms related to cyber security that may be useful to understand the event.

Hospitals, school districts, state and local governments, law enforcement agencies, small businesses, large businesses—these are just some of the entities impacted recently by ransomware, an insidious type of malware that encrypts, or locks, valuable digital files and demands a ransom to release them. And, of course, home computers are just as susceptible to ransomware, and the loss of access to personal and often irreplaceable items—including family photos, videos, and other data—can be devastating for individuals as well.
Meeting-avoidance for self-managing developersPeter Hilton
How and when to avoid meetings and have more time to write code
Meetings are a problem for any organisations, because they dull the attention-span of otherwise intelligent people, and prevent otherwise productive people from getting any work done. Software developers suffer more than most, because they can’t even pretend that they’re getting any work done when they’re sitting in meetings. After all, getting your laptop out and writing code during a meeting is (rightly) considered rude.
This presentation introduces various approaches that software developers can use to reduce the number of meetings in their organisation, so they have more time to write code. In particular, developer contributions to project management can drastically reduce the number of meetings.
(Moonconf 2016) Fetching Moths from the Works: Correctness Methods in SoftwareBrian Troutwine
We live in a nice world. There’s a wealth of historical thought on achieving correctness in software–shipping code that does only what is intended, not less and not more–and there are a whole bunch of methods available to us as practitioners. Some of these are hard to apply, some are easy. For instance, case testing is widely used and considered standard practice. Property testing is understood to exist but not widely used. The application of advanced logics? Way out there.
If you look around you’ll find a lot of software fails a lot of the time. Why is that?
In this talk I’ll give an overview of the methods for producing correct systems and will discuss each in its historical context. With each method, we’ll keep an eye out for present applications and the difficulty of doing so. We’ll discuss why there’s so much buggy software in the world. I expect there will be talk of spaceships a bit. By the end of this talk you ought to be able to make reasoned decisions about applying correctness methods in your own work and have a good shot at building better software.

Automation With Humans in Mind: Making Complex Systems Predictable, Reliable ...Brian Troutwine
I believe that our current approach to designing software systems is driving society in a bad direction. In particular, I believe we are creating a society predicated on automation which is oriented to be serviced by humans or, requiring no service, is simply in control of humans. Ignoring the dystopian overtones of this, I argue that this is a technically flawed approach, that such automation is less reliable, less flexible and less robust through time than a system designed with humans as the controlling party in mind. I will argue--with a mix of personal experience, reference to academic literature and historical examples--that complex systems designed with human control in mind are more lasting through time, more technically excellent and just generally more useful. I will further argue that a re-orientation toward human supremacy in computer systems is especially important as we begin to tightly couple western civilization's technology to the internet, being the Internet of Things. I'll talk a bit about the political and social implications, as well, after I've made a purely technical argument.
You probably can't imagine that Monoids (not monads) are so simple maths creatures that you can understand them in just a few minutes.
You probably can't imagine that Monoids (not monads) are so simple maths creatures that you can understand them in just a few minutes.
But you probably don't imagine either that they can help you craft elegant and powerful domain models that scale very well.
Through various examples, we will have a closer look at monoids used for domain modeling in a style that mixes the best of DDD and FP. Even in languages like Java or C#, this talk will influence your coding style forever!

This presentation was held in PLOG2013, Sorrento, Italy. It's about good software development documentation culture, writing documentation for Python packages and maintaining up-to-date developer documentation in Plone ecosystem.
HTTP is the distributed computing API that makes all of the others look bad. HTTP’s popularity is largely due to the simplicity of its text-based format and stateless interaction. Despite this, many web application development frameworks attempt to provide an abstraction layer over HTTP, and only add complexity in the attempt to hide the details.
This short presentation introduces HTTP basics for beginners, and shows what it looks like under the covers. Novice web developers benefit from this introduction by learning to understand where a platform-specific ends and where HTTP and the platform we call ‘the web’ starts.
Documentation avoidance for developersPeter Hilton
However good your code, other people never seem to get it. Instead they ruin your day (and your productivity) by asking questions and expecting documentation. You need to know how to explain code without getting stuck in meetings or spending half your time on the only thing you hate more than meetings: writing documentation. Instead, you aim for constructive laziness: tactics that give you more time to write code.
This talk teaches you how to avoid writing documentation, by making it unnecessary or delegating the work to someone else. You will also learn how to deal with the awkward situation when you can’t get away with avoidance or delegation, and have to write the documentation yourself.
This talk explores what we talk about when we talk about code, how we do it, and the tools we use. You can often find a better tool than documentation, but not always. Not everyone writes detailed specifications these days, but remote working and distributed teams make written explanations more valuable than ever. Talking face to face requires less effort, but you rarely or never meet the authors of most of the code you see. Software craftsmanship has failed to make written documentation unnecessary. Instead we shall turn to README-Driven Development, comments evasion, documentation-avoidance, just-in-time documentation and the art of not writing it in the first place.
While DDD is becoming more and more popular, there are quite a few potential misinterpretations and malpractices floating around. These issues are time-consuming, and they induce a lot of frustrations and needless yak-shaving experiences.
These pitfalls are plenty, ranging from higher level things (for example a lack of focus on the strategic part) to technical things (for example misinterpretations of the repository pattern), and even the surrounding area (for example errors made when"selling DDD" to your team members).
By sharing this experience I hope to reduce the huge amount of time and effort people spend on "doing DDD wrong".
Modern languages’ biggest problem isn’t having enough cool features, it’s unmaintainable code. The core of maintainable code is clean code with good tests, but that by itself is not enough. This talk introduces a range of techniques for writing and improving code for maintainability, including how to get better at naming, explaining code with tests, the few code comments you actually need, README-driven development and how to write Minimum Viable Documentation.
Attendees will see how to combine a number of techniques they have already encountered separately, plus at least one technique they’ve never heard of and can use immediately. Naming and abstraction are too hard to get right every single time, so you need to know when to add small doses of comments and documentation. More importantly, you need to know how to avoid wasting time on bad comments and unnecessary documentation without giving up entirely and not having any at all.
After the excitement of early adoption, and the joy of coding among experts comes the horror of your first maintenance project. As Jean-Paul Sartre said*, ‘Hell is other people’s code’. Whether you are a new Scala developer or an experienced team lead, your future developer experience and happiness depends on maintainable code.
Instrumentation as a Living Documentation: Teaching Humans About Complex SystemsBrian Troutwine
Instrumentation of Complex Systems is necessary and addresses the issues of static documentation of said systems. Instrumentation is flawed, flaws which are resolvable with an intentional kind of documentation.

Websauna - introduction to the best Python web frameworkMikko Ohtamaa
Websauna is a Python package and application framework for developing custom consumer and business web services. It emphasises meeting business requirements with reliable delivery times, responsiveness, consistency in quality, security and high data integrity. A low learning curve, novice friendliness and polished documentation help less seasoned developers to get their first release out quickly.
A software editor in finance was facing the challenge to extend substantially the capabilities of its main application, despite 20 years of legacy in multiple technologies. In this talk, Cyrille Martraire will report on how DDD has been applied to capture deep models of the domain, within bounded contexts that emerged in the course of the project, and how DDD also helped to build a strategy for dealing with the legacy code.
The video is available on Skillsmatter website: http://skillsmatter.com/podcast/design-architecture/applying-ddd-legacy-app
Process-oriented reactive service architecturePeter Hilton
Reactive application development gives us better ways to build scalable applications, but often together with a micro-services jigsaw puzzle. Decoupled teams can rapidly deliver decoupled services, but you still need to piece together an end-to-end system. This presentation introduces an alternative way to think about and architect reactive applications using workflow tools.
Modern workflow management tools enable a convenient process-oriented approach to service orchestration that is itself reactive. More importantly, process management technology provides two key features that hand-coded applications typically lack: persistent execution state and an editable graphical process representation that you can use to define and adjust service orchestration. After learning how to coordinate micro-services, you will also and how to use the same system to orchestrate micro-service-like human workers. It turns out that with the right platform, human actors can also be reactive services, and participate in the same architecture.
I T.A.K.E. talk: "When DDD meets FP, good things happen"Cyrille Martraire
Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and Functional Programming (FP) have a lot of good things in common: DDD has borrowed many ideas from the FP community, and both share a common inspiration on established formalisms like maths.
For the software developer, the result is a style of code that mixes the best of DDD, OO and FP. Even in non functional languages like Java or C#, this combined set of practices helps craft simple and powerful code that reads well and that is very easy to test.
In this talk we will have a closer look at some of these ideas, in the context of domain models inspired from real-world projects. From basic FP hygiene like immutability and closure of operations to more mathematical inspirations from abstract algebra like monoids, we will show how all that translates into beautiful code.
WARNING: This may influence your coding style…

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
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.

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.
