Enabling High Level Application Development In The Internet Of ThingsPankesh Patel
The Internet of Things (IoT) combines Wireless Sensor and Actuation Networks (WSANs), Pervasive
computing, and the elements of the \\traditional" Internet such as Web and database servers. This leads to
the dual challenges of scale and heterogeneity in these systems, which comprise a large number of devices of
dierent characteristics. In view of the above, developing IoT applications is challenging because it involves
dealing with a wide range of related issues, such as lack of separation of concerns, need for domain experts to
write low level code, and lack of specialized domain specic languages (DSLs). Existing software engineering
approaches only cover a limited subset of the above-mentioned challenges.
In this work, we propose an application development process for the IoT that aims to comprehensively
address the above challenges. We rst present the semantic model of the IoT, based on which we identify
the roles of the various stakeholders in the development process, viz., domain expert, software designer,
application developer, device developer, and network manager, along with their skills and responsibilities.
To aid them in their tasks, we propose a model-driven development approach which uses customized lan-
guages for each stage of the development process: Srijan Vocabulary Language (SVL) for specifying the
domain vocabulary, Srijan Architecture Language (SAL) for specifying the architecture of the application,
and Srijan Network Language (SNL) for expressing the properties of the network on which the application
will execute; each customized to the skill level and area of expertise of the relevant stakeholder. For the
application developer specifying the internal details of each software component, we propose the use of a
customized generated framework using a language such as Java. Our DSL-based approach is supported by
code generation and task-mapping techniques in an application development tool developed by us. Our
initial evaluation based on two realistic scenarios shows that the use of our techniques/framework succeeds
in improving productivity while developing IoT applications.

Attacking the cloud with social engineeringPeter Wood
Peter Wood, CEO of First Base Technologies, gave a presentation on attacking cloud services with social engineering. He began by introducing himself and his background. He then discussed the different cloud models of SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS. The main point of the presentation was that social engineering techniques can be very effective at attacking cloud services since they rely on human interaction and do not have the same physical security controls as on-premise systems. Specific social engineering techniques discussed included phishing emails, spear phishing emails, telephone impersonation, and infecting users via USB devices. The presentation concluded with recommendations for defenses including user training, two-factor authentication, access control, and policy around joining and leaving the organization.
Peter Wood, CEO of First Base Technologies, gave a presentation on how big data and advanced analytics can help with cybersecurity challenges. He discussed how the threat landscape has become more complex with stealth malware and targeted attacks. Traditional defenses like signatures and firewalls may be insufficient. Big data can help through improved SIEM tools with real-time updates, behavior models, and correlation to detect advanced threats. However, big data analytics requires significant investment and specialized skills that are only available to large organizations currently. Cloud-based solutions may help other organizations also gain security benefits from big data.
Peter Wood has worked as an ethical hacker for the past 20 years, with clients in sectors as diverse as banking, insurance, retail and manufacturing. He will describe how advanced persistent threats operate from a security intelligence perspective, based on published case studies and analysis. He will highlight APT entry points and exploitation techniques and suggest practical prevention and detection strategies.
Out of the Blue: Responding to New Zero-Day ThreatsPeter Wood
Peter Wood is the CEO of First Base Technologies LLP, an ethical hacking firm. He discusses how zero-day threats are a major concern for CIOs due to attacks being strategic and using easy-to-use tools. Examples of zero-day attacks provided are the Aurora attack which targeted intellectual property and the RSA attack which used spear phishing. Minimizing vulnerabilities requires thinking like an attacker and conducting ongoing security testing rather than relying solely on traditional perimeter defenses. CIOs should be engaged before an attack occurs to secure necessary security budgets and approvals.

"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?
