OxyContin is a semi-synthetic opioid pain reliever derived from opium poppies. It was first synthesized in 1916 and was initially seen as a "wonder drug" for pain relief due to its time-release formulation. However, crushing or dissolving the tablets defeats the time release and produces a stronger high risking addiction. As OxyContin prescriptions increased, so did abuse and addiction, leading to a devastating epidemic. Combining OxyContin with alcohol can have deadly effects by slowing breathing and circulatory functions. Addiction symptoms include preoccupation with the drug, withdrawal symptoms, and a desire for more.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
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
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

5. 5 |
PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS FOUNDATIONS
All predictive analytic methods and models are based upon one common premise:
What has happened in the past will likely happen again
So once we learn from the past, we know what to look for in the future
And all of this is driven by the data itself, so:
The more data you have, the more you need Predictive Analytics
A FEW SIMPLE PRINCIPLES MAKE THIS POSSIBLE

CASE STUDY: Royal Dirkzwager
This picture you see, is a dashboard of the shipping around the harbor of Rotterdam. Royal Dirkzwager is one of the world’s leading maritime service providers. Core capability of Dirkzwager is to “gather full shipping movement details (such as positions) and relate them to clients in real-time’. The accurate and continuous flow of this information enables clients (shippers) to plan activities and processes as efficiently as possible.
CCO Jeroen Kortsmit says; “Royal Dirkzwager’s core process is collecting, interpreting, validating and distributing information to logistics suppliers, warehousing companies, merchants and other interested parties in the shipping industry.”
OBJECTIVE
Enable shippers to plan activities efficiently in/nearby harbor
Based on the real-time and accurate information they can;
Steer third parties (providing food for crew, cleaning) to support the ships on time in full
Optimize the harbor capacity.
ALWAYS ON ANALYTICS
CCO Jeroen Kortsmit says; “Royal Dirkzwager’s core process is collecting, interpreting, validating and distributing information to logistics suppliers, warehousing companies, merchants and other interested parties in the shipping industry.” The always on analytics contains European ship positions, status and ETA.
PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS
Dirkzwager uses Apama to enable shippers to predict the Estimated Arrival Time (ETA) of any ship anywhere and then revise the ETA continuously as circumstances change. The service tracks ships as they cross virtual lines and feeds clients continuous location-based
event updates.
AUTOMATED ACTIONS
Automated messages are sent to clients what the ETA means anticipating on activities when they arrive in the harbor
Automated messages are sent as soon as a monitored vessel enters (or exits) a zone, the subscriber receives details by email or text. Through this messaging service, Royal Dirkzwager directly supports its clients in optimizing their own operational processes.
CASE STUDY: Retailers

PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS + AUTOMATED ACTIONS
Predict queues: automatically re-deploying staff when there is going to be a problem/queue in the next 10 mins,
Predict lack of specific inventory; adjusting a promotion (with altered signage) when it is performing different to plan (ie not well enough or too well that you will run out of inventory)
Predict empty shelves; replenishing shelves before they are completely empty.

CASE STUDY: GE Jenbacher
This picture is of a General Electric Jenbacher power generator used by the plastics factory. Worldwide, about 11.000 Jenbacher generators are operating. These massive engines, 8.4 meters long and 4.7 meters wide, can power everything from large factories to small cities.
OBJECTIVE
Reliability is key: factories must produce, cities must be livable.
GE has aggressive SLAs with an objective of 99.999% uptime from each engine. Besides, GE Software has the mission to make GE’s customers’ systems 1% more efficient
Sounds like not too difficult, but this equates to a saving of 66 billion dollars over 15 years for GE customers.
ALWAYS ON ANALYTICS
The trick is “fix it before it breaks down”.
But this is difficult since the engines are used in variety of ways: some run at a constant rate – others experience peaks – and differences in light/heavy usage.
GE needs to monitor constantly and real-time the conditions of the machines to know what could go wrong and when.
PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS
A breakdown must be predictable, otherwise GE can never meet the objective of 99.999% uptime.
Solution with Software AG:
Using smart system software that includes 300 sensors reviewed continuously
The data is analysed & visualised and compared to predictive maintenance rules over time
Smart analytics determine when a generator bearing will ‘wear out’ or ‘malfunction’ or predict how much life is left
AUTOMATED ACTIONS
Automated actions -in time- will increase efficiency and uptime that will generate the 1% improvement
Actions such as initiating technician dispatch and automated task management for Field Service.
