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).

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).

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.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
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.

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.

Transformative Agenda
Moving Towards a Knowledge Economy…
Creating a knowledge-led economy and knowledge-based societies in the world is a key to
survival and development of people in the emerging knowledge era.
RKCL believes that there is a great potential in societies to emerge as a knowledge-led economy
thanks to their large but latent talent pool. The challenge exists in transforming their
predominantly agrarian or industrial economy into a new knowledge-led economy.
This Transformation can be reached by imbibing a culture of life-long learning. The severe threat
of marginalization of the masses emerging from the Digital Divide and Knowledge Divide can
be effectively averted through mass IT literacy. Only an IT Literate society can enjoy a greater
share of global business opportunities and global job opportunities.
5. RKCL is an entrepreneurial endeavor to bridge this Digital Divide and the resultant Knowledge
Divide by offering actionable knowledge to masses for socio-economic transformation.
RKCL's synthesis of a new paradigm of education is to offer education:
To very large and diverse population
with various diversities – Bigger
With high quality of relevance and
applicability in life and work- Better
At an affordable cost- Cheaper
Within shortest possible time – Faster
With wide accessibility from metros to villages – Wider
In a mass-personalized and deeper experiential manner- Deeper
RKCL attempts to address these six challenges simultaneously by pervasive and appropriate use
of IT for empowerment of the masses in general and youth in particular.
Focus
RKCL commenced its business operations in Jan 2009 over the entire state of Rajasthan, the
largest state in India measuring about 342,269 sq. km. with population exceeding 6.86 crores
(Census 2011).
In a short span RKCL has emerged as a high-tech and high-touch initiative focused on design,
development and delivery of innovative eInfrastructure, eLearning, eGovernance, and
eEmpowerment technologies, solutions and services to its ever growing base of customers in
educational institutes, Governments, and Communities.
Unique Equity Profile
The Government of Rajasthan (GoR), three Universities in the state, community institutions, IT
and non-IT bodies, etc. are among the initial major equity holders of RKCL. With GoR's equity
of 30%, the company has a unique blend of governmental credibility and social responsibility on
one hand and entrepreneurial competitiveness, market orientation, flexibility, productivity,
profitability and self-sustainability on the other.
6. The founders conceived a unique identity of RKCL as a fast-track IT enabler and a
complimenting and supplementing partner of the universities, governments and communities for
the fulfillment of the new and growing aspirations of students in particular and people in general
in the emerging knowledge society and knowledge-led economy.
