El Yunque National Forest and Guanica State Forest are two important forests in Puerto Rico. El Yunque is located in the northeast region and contains 4 zones with different vegetation based on elevation. It receives over 185 inches of rain annually and is home to over 100 vertebrate species including the Puerto Rican parrot. Guanica is located in the southwest and contains the largest dry forest in the Caribbean. It receives only 25-30 inches of rain per year and has adapted flora like cacti and succulents. Both forests are internationally recognized biosphere reserves that are important for conservation and research.
Protected areas of the world & pakistanWaqar Majeed
Wild animals are the key pats of Nature and to sustain and manage them should be the basic priority of us. this seminar aid us in the explanation of all these.
Protected areas are those in which human occupation or at least the exploitation of resources is limited.
The definition that has been widely accepted across regional and global frameworks has been provided by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in its categorization guidelines for protected areas.
There are several kinds of protected areas, which vary by level of protection depending on the enabling laws of each country or the regulations of the international organizations involved.
The term "protected area" also includes
Marine Protected Areas, the boundaries of which will include some area of ocean, and
Trans boundary Protected Areas that overlap multiple countries which remove the borders inside the area for conservation and economic purposes.

Wildlife conservation compatible with local forest uses on Seram Island, east...CIFOR-ICRAF
The term ‘secondary forests’ brings to mind logged, disturbed, slash-and-burn fallow forests and industrial plantations. But there are many secondary forests formed and maintained through arboriculture that are ‘invisible’ for outsiders because they tolerate other species (non-crops and wild animals) and are dispersed in the forest area with no clear boundaries. This presentation, given at the 8th IALE World Congress in Beijing, China on 18-23 August 2011, summarises a study that attempts to clarify how these human-modified forests are created and maintained, and what roles and meanings such forests have for local livelihoods and for biodiversity. Results revealed that indigenous arboriculture does encourage mildly interdependent relationships between wildlife and human livelihoods, typified by the case of the protected Mollucan cockatoo. Further study is needed to evaluate the value of arboriculture for effective national park management and biodiversity conservation compatible with local forest uses.

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).

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

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:
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.
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.

2. El Yunque National Forest
El Yunque Natural Rainforest has become one
of the world‟s greatest natural wonders due to the
ecological diversity that distinguishes it. Its
captivating beauty has attracted so much attention
that it has even been considered a candidate in
becoming one of the new Seven Natural Wonders of
the World. But how did this forest become the
biological jewel it is today?
3. • From the very origins of our civilization, El Yunque has
been of major importance in different aspects.
• It is believed that the Taíno Indians would worship
Yuquiyú, the god of good, from the peaks of this singular
highland. They called this mountain Yuque, meaning sacred
or white lands, since their peaks were covered with clouds
(the Spanish later mistook the name and called it Yunque).
• Its unique beauty attracted the Spanish and in 1876 King
Alfonso XII designated 12,000 acres of the Sierra de
Luquillo as a reserve, making El Yunque one of the oldest
reserves in the Western Hemisphere.
4. • In 1898, after the Spanish-American War, the Spanish
Crown ceded Puerto Rico to the United States. Five years
later, United States‟ President, Theodore
Roosevelt, proclaimed the forest the „Luquillo Forest
Reserve‟.
• The name was once again changed under the management
of the Forest Service Division of the United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA) to the „Caribbean
National Forest/Luquillo Experimental Forest‟.
• In 1976, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organization (UNESCO) proclaimed it the first
International Biosphere Reserve in Puerto Rico, under the
program „El Hombre y la Biosfera‟.
5. Guanica State Forest
With population growth and the need for
land, forests have been threatened worldwide, many
of which have been altered by man. Fortunately
Guanica Dry Forest, classified as a xerophyte
subtropical forest, is one of the best preserved dry
forests in existence.
6. • Originally, the forest was a private property in which
farming took place.
• In 1919 it was established as the „Guánica State Forest‟.
Because of its importance, it was later designated as a
Forest Reserve in 1985.
• Due to its complexity of natural and scientific
importance, in 1981, the United Nations Organization
(UN), under the program of the United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
(UNESCO) it was awarded the distinction of being the
second International Biosphere Reserve in Puerto Rico.
7. • This forest has given great importance to scientific
research, vital information to develop a management plan
aimed at forest conservation.
• Currently, Mr. Miguel Canals of the Department of Natural
and Environmental Resources (DNER), directs the forest
and has participated in many of the scientific research that
has occurred there.
• A compilation of some of the research done until 1990 was
published in the journal „Acta Scientifica‟. From 1990
onwards 119 investigations have been conducted in a
variety of fields, such as flora and
fauna, archeology, ecology, and fishery, among others.
