A battle has been raging on this planet for thousands of years. The battle for control of the minds and wills of humanity. Many have been taught that it is a battle between God's angels and Satan's demons. The truth of the matter is something much more insidious.
A conspiracy of cosmic proportions has been orchestrated against the inhabitants of this planet by an alien influence which is so deceptive, elusive, cunning and evil that even the most brilliant minds have failed to detect its presence. Over the past fifty years, technological advances by "ungodly" scientists have caused the alien presence to step up its plans for the human race. In so doing, the veil of deception has begun to fall away and the truth has finally been exposed.
A group of rebel human/alien hybrids had once again established a base on Earth and had set up a genetic laboratory to help mankind break free of the genetic bonds of aging which the Elohim had programmed into our DNA (NOTE: telomerase). Today we read more and more about alien abductions and reproductive and genetic experimentation being conducted on humans against their will by aliens.
Realizing that man would eventually grow beyond the shackles that the Gods have forged for us, the alien masters have channeled visions of an impending apocalypse in the minds of many humans. The book of Revelations in the Bible is a popular example of this imagery. In this channeled vision, the author describes a world leader who will rise to power and bring mankind under a single world government. This leader is given scary titles such as "The Antichrist" or "The Beast" to keep people afraid and to prevent them from using reason to judge the value of this leader's actions. Once again we see our alien masters using that age-old tool: FEAR, to cause people to react irrationally.
The current Masters realize that their key to keeping mankind enslaved is to keep man subdued and at war with himself. Religion has been used as a tool to keep man from becoming a threat to the Gods.

This document provides an introduction and overview of honeypots including definitions, uses, types, deployment, and legal issues. It defines a honeypot as a resource designed to be attacked in order to gather information about attacks. Honeypots are used for research, understanding blackhat activities, and building better defenses. They come in low, mid, and high interaction varieties depending on how much an attacker can interact with the operating system. Deployment involves running honeypot programs on hardened machines or using unpatched servers protected by firewalls. Legal issues include privacy, entrapment, and liability concerns.

Six Steps to Addressing Data Governance under GDPR and US Privacy Shield Regu...DATUM LLC
In May of 2018 the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will go into effect and organizations seeking to be ready by the deadline will need to move quickly. There are a multitude of considerations: policies, marketing programs, systems, operations and the overall information architecture. This session provides a primer on GDPR, the required data management capabilities, and how governance will need to evolve for compliance.
Click here to agree managing intellectual property when crowdsourcing solutionsIan McCarthy
Tapping into the creativity of a crowd can provide a highly efficient and effective means of acquiring ideas, work, and content to solve problems. But crowdsourcing solutions can also come with risks, including the legal risks associated with intellectual property. Therefore, we raise and address a two-part question: Why -- and how -- should organizations deal with intellectual property issues when engaging in the crowdsourcing of solutions? The answers lie in understanding the approaches for acquiring sufficient intellectual property from a crowd and limiting the risks of using that intellectual property. Herein, we discuss the hazards of not considering these legal issues and explain how managers can use appropriate terms and conditions to balance and mitigate the risks associated with soliciting solutions from a crowd. Based on differences in how organizations acquire intellectual property and limit associated risks, we identify and illustrate with examples four approaches for managing intellectual property (passive, possessive, persuasive, and prudent) when crowdsourcing solutions. We conclude with recommendations for how organizations should use and tailor the approaches in our framework to source intellectual property from a crowd.
“Fairness Cases as an Accelerant and Enabler for Cognitive Assistance Adoption”diannepatricia
Chuck Howell, Chief Engineer for Intelligence Programs and Integration at the MITRE Corporation, presentation “Fairness Cases as an Accelerant and Enabler for Cognitive Assistance Adoption” as part of the Cognitive Systems Institute Speaker Series.
This document summarizes a panel discussion on cyber insurance at the NTXISSA Cyber Security Conference on November 10-11, 2017. The panel included experts from Risk Centric Security, McGriff Seibels & Williams insurance brokerage, Texas Medical Liability Trust, and Scheef & Stone law firm. They discussed key topics like what cyber risk insurance covers, how much coverage is needed, the claims process, and common mistakes made. The panel provided insight into first-party coverages like breach response costs and third-party coverages like privacy liability. They also explained that risk assessments and disclosure of prior incidents can impact insurance premiums.
The Essentials of Cyber Insurance: A Panel of Industry ExpertsShawn Tuma
Patrick Florer (Risk Centric Security, Inc.), Mark Knepshield (McGriff, Seibels & Williams), and John Southrey (Texas Medical Liability Trust) are cyber insurance industry experts who have been working in the industry for longer than most of the newly-minted experts have even known about cyber insurance. In this panel presentation at the North Texas ISSA Conference, cybersecurity and data privacy attorney Shawn Tuma moderated their discussion and it was outstanding even though they did not make it through half of the slides due to the depth of their discussion. The presentation date was November 10, 2017.
Establishing an insider threat programme: Know your Snowden - Puneet Kukreja,...Puneet Kukreja
Insider threat seems to be one of the biggest risks for organisations looking to protect their data assets. Enterprises spend large proportion of their budget to secure and protect their most critical assets from exfiltration and leakage. However, it's not all about nation state and espionage, it's about identifying potential insider threat scenarios, understanding the organisation’s critical assets and the controls to protect them.
With the recent spate of data breaches originating from trusted insiders, how do enterprises ensure their data assets are safe from insider threat and appropriate controls are in place?
What models have been implemented to identify potential insider threat scenarios?
Which critical data assets must be safeguarded?
What combination of technologies are required to protect against insider threat?
Is there a psychology element?
The session seeks to answer these questions by sharing experience from two use cases; one which approached the problem from a technical perspective, and the other using consolidation of existing technology data sets.
An Inside-Out Approach to Security in Financial ServicesForcepoint LLC
This presentation addresses the following:
- Key challenges in Financial Services
- Requirements for Building an Insider Threat Program
- The Forcepoint Approach
The document discusses preparing organizations for compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It provides an overview of key GDPR requirements, such as obtaining consent for personal data use, implementing privacy by design, and responding to data breaches. The document recommends developing a GDPR action plan that includes conducting privacy impact assessments and audits. Overall, the summary emphasizes the need for organizations to understand how they use personal data and ensure they can meet GDPR requirements for data protection.
Potential Opportunities for Common Federal Biometric ServicesDuane Blackburn
Looking long term, what could be done to alter the foundations that federal biometric systems are built upon, thus enabling advancements that may not be possible today? In other words: How could these systems evolve to be more adaptive and flexible, both individually and as a whole?
MITRE internally funded a quick analysis to develop initial strategic thoughts on this topic, based on its in-depth knowledge of the existing systems. It is important to note that this project did not perform a deep-dive analysis of various options, and it does not present detailed actionable recommendations. Rather, it capitalizes on existing knowledge and experiences to analyze numerous potential opportunities and to identify those that we feel hold the most promise. It is this latter set of opportunities that are presented in this presentation. In each case, MITRE recommends more thorough analysis and interagency discussion take place amongst federal departments, prior to any actionable decisions being made.
This document provides an overview of a workshop on achieving attribute-based access control (ABAC). The workshop featured several presentations on implementing ABAC from industry experts. Topics included the roadmap to implementing ABAC, how to find and use attributes, mobile API management for ABAC, and the ABAC lifecycle. The document also provides a brief summary of each presentation.
The document discusses how the author obtained degrees in applied statistics and decision analysis and used skills in areas like operations research, data analysis, and statistical modeling in various roles before becoming a Lead Data Scientist at MITRE. In this role, the author works on problems like helping veterans access benefits, simulating nuclear waste cleanup, making an organization more effective using data and models, and using predictive analytics to help increase child welfare. The document provides background on MITRE and describes opportunities there for people with mathematics backgrounds.
Mass Collaboration [Policy]: What, Why, and ChoicesMike Linksvayer
This document discusses mass collaboration data projects, including what they are, why policy is important, and key policy choices. It addresses that mass collaboration projects come in various forms from centralized to distributed and crowdsourced to collaborative. The document also discusses considering the location of data and considering key policy choices of similar projects, as well as desirable ends from such projects like curation, provenance, and orientation toward public good.
The Open Internet has demonstrated to be a powerful driver for social, technical and economic interaction. The success of the Internet is based on a number of Invariants[1], among which are Global connectivity and integrity, Accessibility, permissionless innovation, interoperability and mutual agreements. Those properties not only bring prosperity, they grow the attack surface too.
When it comes to Internet Security on a global scale the general approach to security may not be all that applicable. That general approach is usually inward facing: whereby actors look at their own assets and how to protect them in a way that makes economic sense.
Security policies are often premised at stopping bad things and not on what the properties are that need protected. When thinking about security for the Internet, then, individual actors also need an external perspective in order to trade off their actions towards the bigger internet: Collaborative Security.
Within that context we reflect on resiliency, about outward facing security, governance, and give some examples of collaborative security and the difficulty of them getting traction.
Even though GDPR is a European Union regulation, it impacts any company with customers in that region. One of the first key tasks of the data management team should be to create awareness regarding the impact of GDPR on the business with all key stakeholders across the organization. In order to generate awareness, organizations need to have clearly defined documentation defining the policies, rules, requirements and the impact of non-compliance. Kim Brushaber will look at what is involved with GDPR, what you should be concerned with, and how to get the conversation started between the business and technical teams within your organization using ER/Studio.
Talent Management on a global scale is much more than simply a local program on a larger scale. Every organisation with global aspirations needs a global talent management strategy.
Use these 6 critical success factors to ensure your program delivers results.

QR Secure: A Hybrid Approach Using Machine Learning and Security Validation Functions to Prevent Interaction with Malicious QR Codes.
Aim of the Study: The goal of this research was to develop a robust hybrid approach for identifying malicious and insecure URLs derived from QR codes, ensuring safe interactions.
This is achieved through:
Machine Learning Model: Predicts the likelihood of a URL being malicious.
Security Validation Functions: Ensures the derived URL has a valid certificate and proper URL format.
This innovative blend of technology aims to enhance cybersecurity measures and protect users from potential threats hidden within QR codes 🖥 🔒
This study was my first introduction to using ML which has shown me the immense potential of ML in creating more secure digital environments!
"Choosing proper type of scaling", Olena SyrotaFwdays
Imagine an IoT processing system that is already quite mature and production-ready and for which client coverage is growing and scaling and performance aspects are life and death questions. The system has Redis, MongoDB, and stream processing based on ksqldb. In this talk, firstly, we will analyze scaling approaches and then select the proper ones for our system.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

"NATO Hackathon Winner: AI-Powered Drug Search", Taras KlobaFwdays
This is a session that details how PostgreSQL's features and Azure AI Services can be effectively used to significantly enhance the search functionality in any application.
In this session, we'll share insights on how we used PostgreSQL to facilitate precise searches across multiple fields in our mobile application. The techniques include using LIKE and ILIKE operators and integrating a trigram-based search to handle potential misspellings, thereby increasing the search accuracy.
We'll also discuss how the azure_ai extension on PostgreSQL databases in Azure and Azure AI Services were utilized to create vectors from user input, a feature beneficial when users wish to find specific items based on text prompts. While our application's case study involves a drug search, the techniques and principles shared in this session can be adapted to improve search functionality in a wide range of applications. Join us to learn how PostgreSQL and Azure AI can be harnessed to enhance your application's search capability.
