UTSpeaks Public Lecture: Clearing up the Cloud -19th July 2011 - Rob Living...Livingstone Advisory
How should we navigate the pitfalls of IT’s newest ‘big opportunity’?
For individuals and small business, Cloud computing via the Internet offers unprecedented access to systems, software and technologies, previously restricted to the corporate world, at little or no cost.
But for mid-sized and large organisations, the reality of adopting Cloud computing presents a whole new set of costs, risks and governance implications, quite different to those in traditional in-house IT systems.
This public lecture provides a concise, plain English overview of Cloud computing and what it means for businesses in Australia. It explores the privacy, security, commercial, regulatory, cost, risk and internal governance challenges that organisations, as well as the wider community, should be aware of.
Take a look at your security system. Do you see proprietary panels, readers, software and servers? A system built on yesterday’s technology that’s rigid, difficult to manage and several upgrades behind? It’s time to embrace cloud-based security solutions. In this webinar, Trey West, VP and CTO with Knight Security Systems, covers:
- Cloud security systems on the rise
- The advantages of cloud-based security
- Staying compliant with cloud-based security
- Knight’s cloud-based security solution
Supporting Research through "Desktop as a Service" models of e-infrastructure...David Wallom
Keynote presentation given 13/9/16 @ ESA Earth Observation Open Science workshop 2016.
"The rise in cloud computing as an e-infrastructure model is one that has the power to democratise access to computational and data resources throughout the research communities. We have seen the difference that Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) has made for different communities and are now only beginning to understand what different models further up the stack can make. It is also becoming clear that with the increase in research data volumes, the number of sources and the possibility of utilising data from different regulatory regimes that a different model of how analysis is performed on the data is possible. Utilising a "Desktop as a Service" model, with community focused applications installed on a common and well understood virtual system image that is directly connected to community relevant data allows the researcher to no longer have to consider moving data but only the final analysed results. This massively simplifies both the user model and the data and resource owner model. We will consider the specific example of the Environmental Ecomics Synthesis Cloud and how it could easily be generalised to other areas."

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
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.

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).

Editor's Notes
How to effectively verify “what is really going on inside the cloud”.
Whether the acquired Cloud services are enforced;
Whether only the acquired Cloud services are accessing customers’ data.
In addition to developing cloud strategies, various countries and regions are taking the next step of developing cloud security requirements for government services or even as national policies. Each of their approaches have varying strengths from which countries can learn as they develop requirements and iterate going forward.
With its Cloud Strategy, NIS Directive, and the Digital Single Market strategy, the EU is pushing the importance of innovation, security, and resilience. While it is still unclear what the final form of the NIS Directive will be, it is likely that the Directive will encourage regulation that affects cloud service providers. In addition to being innovative, it is important that such regulation ultimately considers the other principles mentioned here today, including flexible, data-aware, risk-based, global standards-based, and transparent. Using these principles will ensure that countries are able to implement the regulations in the way that makes the most sense for them and that workable requirements ultimately result. A good first step is the EU’S Cloud Certifications Schemes List and Cloud Certification Schemes Metaframework, which are flexible tools that cloud customers can use to guide their procurement of secure and resilient cloud services.
The UK’s G-Cloud program, in addition to demonstrating data awareness, is global standards-based, utilizing ISO 27001 as its basis and adding only a thin layer of unique requirements. In addition, G-Cloud takes the standards-based principle a step further in creating a reusable certification, which results in efficiencies similar to those achieved by utilizing global standards. It is also flexible, with multiple levels of certification possible, allowing government agencies to choose which level meets their needs.
In the US, FedRAMP has been developed and improved through consultation with cloud service providers, enabling important transparency. FedRAMP is also fairly flexible, as Moderate and High baselines are being developed, and government agencies will be able to choose which certification levels make sense for their varying data and services. However, as FedRAMP layers many controls and control parameters on top of NIST 800-53 rev. 4, it could be improved by being more risk-based and global standards-based.
In Australia, the Department of Defence has developed a new Information Security Manual, encouraging Australian government agencies to use its manual by taking a risk-based approach in evaluating which of the controls it outlines are important for their cybersecurity and cloud security. It also demonstrates data awareness, mapping the controls to five levels of data sensitivity (from a baseline level to top secret). In conjunction with the new cloud policy allowing agencies to determine for themselves whether to host data offshore, this policy enables flexibility.
