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).

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.

3. Brief History of Python
Invented in the Netherlands, early 90s
by Guido van Rossum
Named after Monty Python
Open sourced from the beginning
Considered a scripting language, but is
much more
Scalable, object oriented and functional
from the beginning
Used by Google from the beginning
Increasingly popular
4. Python’s Benevolent Dictator For Life
“Python is an experiment in
how much freedom program-
mers need. Too much freedom
and nobody can read another's
code; too little and expressive-
ness is endangered.”
- Guido van Rossum
6. The Python Interpreter
Typical Python implementations offer
both an interpreter and compiler
Interactive interface to Python with a
read-eval-print loop
[finin@linux2 ~]$ python
Python 2.4.3 (#1, Jan 14 2008, 18:32:40)
[GCC 4.1.2 20070626 (Red Hat 4.1.2-14)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> def square(x):
... return x * x
...
>>> map(square, [1, 2, 3, 4])
[1, 4, 9, 16]
>>>
7. Installing
Python is pre-installed on most Unix systems,
including Linux and MAC OS X
The pre-installed version may not be the most
recent one (2.6.2 and 3.1.1 as of Sept 09)
Download from http://python.org/download/
Python comes with a large library of standard
modules
There are several options for an IDE
• IDLE – works well with Windows
• Emacs with python-mode or your favorite text editor
• Eclipse with Pydev (http://pydev.sourceforge.net/)
8. IDLE Development Environment
IDLE is an Integrated DeveLopment Environ-
ment for Python, typically used on Windows
Multi-window text editor with syntax
highlighting, auto-completion, smart indent
and other.
Python shell with syntax highlighting.
Integrated debugger
with stepping, persis-
tent breakpoints,
and call stack visi-
bility
9. Running Interactively on UNIX
On Unix…
% python
>>> 3+3
6
Python prompts with ‘>>>’.
To exit Python (not Idle):
• In Unix, type CONTROL-D
• In Windows, type CONTROL-Z + <Enter>
• Evaluate exit()
10. Running Programs on UNIX
Call python program via the python interpreter
% python fact.py
Make a python file directly executable by
• Adding the appropriate path to your python
interpreter as the first line of your file
#!/usr/bin/python
• Making the file executable
% chmod a+x fact.py
• Invoking file from Unix command line
% fact.py
11. Python Scripts
When you call a python program from the
command line the interpreter evaluates each
expression in the file
Familiar mechanisms are used to provide
command line arguments and/or redirect
input and output
Python also has mechanisms to allow a
python program to act both as a script and as
a module to be imported and used by another
python program
12. Example of a Script
#! /usr/bin/python
""" reads text from standard input and outputs any email
addresses it finds, one to a line.
"""
import re
from sys import stdin
# a regular expression ~ for a valid email address
pat = re.compile(r'[-w][-.w]*@[-w][-w.]+[a-zA-Z]{2,4}')
for line in stdin.readlines():
for address in pat.findall(line):
print address
14. Getting a unique, sorted list
import re
from sys import stdin
pat = re.compile(r'[-w][-.w]*@[-w][-w.]+[a-zA-Z]{2,4}’)
# found is an initially empty set (a list w/o duplicates)
found = set( )
for line in stdin.readlines():
for address in pat.findall(line):
found.add(address)
# sorted() takes a sequence, returns a sorted list of its elements
for address in sorted(found):
print address
15. Simple functions: ex.py
"""factorial done recursively and iteratively"""
def fact1(n):
ans = 1
for i in range(2,n):
ans = ans * n
return ans
def fact2(n):
if n < 1:
return 1
else:
return n * fact2(n - 1)
16. Simple functions: ex.py
671> python
Python 2.5.2 …
>>> import ex
>>> ex.fact1(6)
1296
>>> ex.fact2(200)
78865786736479050355236321393218507…000000L
>>> ex.fact1
<function fact1 at 0x902470>
>>> fact1
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'fact1' is not defined
>>>
18. A Code Sample (in IDLE)
x = 34 - 23 # A comment.
y = “Hello” # Another one.
z = 3.45
if z == 3.45 or y == “Hello”:
x = x + 1
y = y + “ World” # String concat.
print x
print y
19. Enough to Understand the Code
Indentation matters to code meaning
• Block structure indicated by indentation
First assignment to a variable creates it
• Variable types don’t need to be declared.
• Python figures out the variable types on its own.
Assignment is = and comparison is ==
For numbers + - * / % are as expected
• Special use of + for string concatenation and % for
string formatting (as in C’s printf)
Logical operators are words (and, or,
not) not symbols
The basic printing command is print
20. Basic Datatypes
Integers (default for numbers)
z = 5 / 2 # Answer 2, integer division
Floats
x = 3.456
Strings
• Can use “” or ‘’ to specify with “abc” == ‘abc’
• Unmatched can occur within the string: “matt’s”
• Use triple double-quotes for multi-line strings or
strings than contain both ‘ and “ inside of them:
“““a‘b“c”””
21. Whitespace
Whitespace is meaningful in Python: especially
indentation and placement of newlines
Use a newline to end a line of code
Use when must go to next line prematurely
No braces {} to mark blocks of code, use
consistent indentation instead
• First line with less indentation is outside of the block
• First line with more indentation starts a nested block
Colons start of a new block in many constructs,
e.g. function definitions, then clauses
22. Comments
Start comments with #, rest of line is ignored
Can include a “documentation string” as the
first line of a new function or class you define
Development environments, debugger, and
other tools use it: it’s good style to include one
def fact(n):
“““fact(n) assumes n is a positive
integer and returns facorial of n.”””
assert(n>0)
return 1 if n==1 else n*fact(n-1)
23. Naming Rules
Names are case sensitive and cannot start
with a number. They can contain letters,
numbers, and underscores.
bob Bob _bob _2_bob_ bob_2 BoB
There are some reserved words:
and, assert, break, class, continue,
def, del, elif, else, except, exec,
finally, for, from, global, if,
import, in, is, lambda, not, or,
pass, print, raise, return, try,
while
24. Naming conventions
The Python community has these recommend-
ed naming conventions
joined_lower for functions, methods and,
attributes
joined_lower or ALL_CAPS for constants
StudlyCaps for classes
camelCase only to conform to pre-existing
conventions
Attributes: interface, _internal, __private
25. Assignment
You can assign to multiple names at the
same time
>>> x, y = 2, 3
>>> x
2
>>> y
3
This makes it easy to swap values
>>> x, y = y, x
Assignments can be chained
>>> a = b = x = 2
26. Accessing Non-Existent Name
Accessing a name before it’s been properly
created (by placing it on the left side of an
assignment), raises an error
>>> y
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#16>", line 1, in -toplevel-
y
NameError: name ‘y' is not defined
>>> y = 3
>>> y
3
28. Sequence Types
1. Tuple: (‘john’, 32, [CMSC])
A simple immutable ordered sequence of
items
Items can be of mixed types, including
collection types
2. Strings: “John Smith”
• Immutable
• Conceptually very much like a tuple
3. List: [1, 2, ‘john’, (‘up’, ‘down’)]
Mutable ordered sequence of items of
mixed types
29. Similar Syntax
All three sequence types (tuples,
strings, and lists) share much of the
same syntax and functionality.
Key difference:
• Tuples and strings are immutable
• Lists are mutable
The operations shown in this section
can be applied to all sequence types
• most examples will just show the
operation performed on one
30. Sequence Types 1
Define tuples using parentheses and commas
>>> tu = (23, ‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3), ‘def’)
Define lists are using square brackets and
commas
>>> li = [“abc”, 34, 4.34, 23]
Define strings using quotes (“, ‘, or “““).
>>> st = “Hello World”
>>> st = ‘Hello World’
>>> st = “““This is a multi-line
string that uses triple quotes.”””
31. Sequence Types 2
Access individual members of a tuple, list, or
string using square bracket “array” notation
Note that all are 0 based…
>>> tu = (23, ‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3), ‘def’)
>>> tu[1] # Second item in the tuple.
‘abc’
>>> li = [“abc”, 34, 4.34, 23]
>>> li[1] # Second item in the list.
34
>>> st = “Hello World”
>>> st[1] # Second character in string.
‘e’
32. Positive and negative indices
>>> t = (23, ‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3), ‘def’)
Positive index: count from the left, starting with 0
>>> t[1]
‘abc’
Negative index: count from right, starting with –1
>>> t[-3]
4.56
33. Slicing: return copy of a subset
>>> t = (23, ‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3), ‘def’)
Return a copy of the container with a subset of
the original members. Start copying at the first
index, and stop copying before second.
>>> t[1:4]
(‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3))
Negative indices count from end
>>> t[1:-1]
(‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3))
34. Slicing: return copy of a =subset
>>> t = (23, ‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3), ‘def’)
Omit first index to make copy starting from
beginning of the container
>>> t[:2]
(23, ‘abc’)
Omit second index to make copy starting at first
index and going to end
>>> t[2:]
(4.56, (2,3), ‘def’)
35. The ‘in’ Operator
Boolean test whether a value is inside a container:
>>> t = [1, 2, 4, 5]
>>> 3 in t
False
>>> 4 in t
True
>>> 4 not in t
False
For strings, tests for substrings
>>> a = 'abcde'
>>> 'c' in a
True
>>> 'cd' in a
True
>>> 'ac' in a
False
Be careful: the in keyword is also used in the syntax
of for loops and list comprehensions
36. The + Operator
The + operator produces a new tuple, list, or
string whose value is the concatenation of its
arguments.
>>> (1, 2, 3) + (4, 5, 6)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
>>> [1, 2, 3] + [4, 5, 6]
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
>>> “Hello” + “ ” + “World”
‘Hello World’
37. The * Operator
The * operator produces a new tuple, list, or
string that “repeats” the original content.
>>> (1, 2, 3) * 3
(1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3)
>>> [1, 2, 3] * 3
[1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3]
>>> “Hello” * 3
‘HelloHelloHello’
39. Lists are mutable
>>> li = [‘abc’, 23, 4.34, 23]
>>> li[1] = 45
>>> li
[‘abc’, 45, 4.34, 23]
We can change lists in place.
Name li still points to the same memory
reference when we’re done.
40. Tuples are immutable
>>> t = (23, ‘abc’, 4.56, (2,3), ‘def’)
>>> t[2] = 3.14
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#75>", line 1, in -toplevel-
tu[2] = 3.14
TypeError: object doesn't support item assignment
You can’t change a tuple.
You can make a fresh tuple and assign its
reference to a previously used name.
>>> t = (23, ‘abc’, 3.14, (2,3), ‘def’)
The immutability of tuples means they’re faster
than lists.
41. Operations on Lists Only
>>> li = [1, 11, 3, 4, 5]
>>> li.append(‘a’) # Note the method
syntax
>>> li
[1, 11, 3, 4, 5, ‘a’]
>>> li.insert(2, ‘i’)
>>>li
[1, 11, ‘i’, 3, 4, 5, ‘a’]
42. Operations on Lists Only
>>> li = [5, 2, 6, 8]
>>> li.reverse() # reverse the list *in place*
>>> li
[8, 6, 2, 5]
>>> li.sort() # sort the list *in place*
>>> li
[2, 5, 6, 8]
>>> li.sort(some_function)
# sort in place using user-defined comparison
43. Tuple details
The comma is the tuple creation operator, not parens
>>> 1,
(1,)
Python shows parens for clarity (best practice)
>>> (1,)
(1,)
Don't forget the comma!
>>> (1)
1
Trailing comma only required for singletons others
Empty tuples have a special syntactic form
>>> ()
()
>>> tuple()
()
44. Summary: Tuples vs. Lists
Lists slower but more powerful than tuples
• Lists can be modified, and they have lots of
handy operations and mehtods
• Tuples are immutable and have fewer
features
To convert between tuples and lists use the
list() and tuple() functions:
li = list(tu)
tu = tuple(li)
