"Connecting With Contractors To Grow Your Business" by Shelley Middlebrook | ...Susan Smith
How do you increase awareness and educate contractors on your latest products and services in today’s fragmented media landscape? Connecting with an on-the-go (mobile), busy contractor and grabbing their attention is not easy. The ability to narrow down and target contractors, and engage, educate, and convince them with content in the buying – decision-making process (buyer’s journey or purchase journey) is crucial to ensuring you have a solid return on investment. The success of content marketing is based on convincing and converting customers. By testing these channels and creative, optimizing, and collecting data, you can grow your brand’s owned channels to build an ongoing, valuable relationship with your audience. To build your business you need to run your brand’s marketing more like a modern publisher or media company providing ongoing value to your customers.

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).
