Is your company data secure? This talk is going to help understand some of the possible attack vectors on mobile platforms and what can Enterprises do, to lower the risk on this platforms.
There is a lot of talk of how drones are bad for privacy, things can get really interesting when you combine your Xcopter with WiFi, air traffic control, video cameras and can actually become a remote controlled turret. Interesting or scary, you decide.
Mobile apps are the entry point to your web applications, APIs and web services. But sometimes the developer implements security in the mobile app that can easily be bypassed by a malicious attacker, allowing the attacker to exploit your web applications and steal confidential information. In this presentation I will show you how easy it is to attack a mobile application, intercept the communication and exploit the trust model of mobile apps. I will also give an overview of the OWASP Top 10 Mobile Risks.

Java Garbage Collectors – Moving to Java7 Garbage First (G1) CollectorGurpreet Sachdeva
One of the key strengths of JVM is automatic memory management (Garbage Collection). Its understanding can help in writing better applications. This becomes all the more important as enterprise server applications have large amount of live heap data and significant parallel threads. Until recently, main collectors were parallel collector and concurrent-mark-sweep (CMS) collector. This presentation introduces the various Garbage Collectors and compares the CMS collector against its replacement, a new implementation in Java7 i.e. G1. It is characterized by a single contiguous heap which is split into same-sized regions. In fact if your application is still running on the 1.5 or 1.6 JVM, a compelling argument to upgrade to Java 7 is to leverage G1.
Urban Legends: What You Code Makes You Who You Are - PJ Hagerty - Codemotion ...Codemotion
If you were a carpenter, would your skills at building be more important than the tools you use to build? Skills, right? Tools are just a means to an end. So why do developers think the language they use defines the problems they solve? This talk will take a look at misconceptions across the board, some experiences, both positive and negative, people have had crossing barriers to new languages, and show some of the benefits thinking of one's self as a coder and not a "Ruby coder" or a "PHP dev" can have on being a better problem solver.

SMS hashing system (Real-Time) for the reliability of financial transactionsIJRES Journal
The sole reason to go with this project is to increase the security for the people using ATM. Once the card and password related to it is stolen it might be a huge loss to the card holder, so to rectify this problem we are implementing this project. Now a day’s using the ATM (Automated Teller Machine) which provide customers with the convenient banknote trading is very common. In the recent times the cases regarding the illegal transactions has shown a considerable increase. How to carry on the valid identity to the customer becomes the focus in current financial circle. Traditional ATM systems authenticate generally by using the credit card and the password, the method has some defects. In recent years, the algorithm of fingerprint recognition has been continuously updated, which has offered new verification means for us. The original password authentication method combined with the biometric identification technology verify the clients’ identity better and achieve the purpose that use of ATM machines improve the safety effectively.
Point of Sale (POS) Malware: Easy to Spot, Hard to StopSymantec
Most organizations worry that they will be the next company showing up on the evening news as the “worst data breach ever.”
The real concern isn’t if you will be breached, but when will you be breached—and if you’ll know it happened before you read it in the press along with your customers.
The cost of the breach is far more than lost revenue that has to be recovered; the real loss is in customer trust and loyalty.
Mistakes made by people and systems are the main causes of data breach. Together, human errors and system problems account for 64 percent of data breaches.

The recent batch of mega retailers that have been compromised, including Target, Neiman Marcus and Michaels, has revealed just how vulnerable payment systems are. Even with sophisticated tools, strong security policies, updated regulatory requirements such as PCI v3 and other measures to mitigate these attacks, hackers are still able to compromise the systems by taking advantage of inherent vulnerabilities in payment systems.
In this webcast, payment systems expert Slava Gomzin, author of Hacking Point of Sale: Payment Application Secrets, Threats, and Solutions, will show us how retailers such as Target were compromised, what went wrong, failures in PCI to address all vulnerabilities and how these types of breaches can be prevented in the future.
Webcast participants will also receive a free sample chapter of Slava’s book on “Payment Application Architecture,” which provides a detailed overview of how payment systems work, protocols and their weaknesses.
Nowaday, embedded systems are widely used and connected to networks, especially the Internet. This become the Internet of Things (IoT) era.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.

This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
