Infusing marketing strategy and talent to differentiate your brand, academic programs and having a daily focus on inquiry generation are now requirements. Here are some tips on how to organize and what to focus on.

Webinar Slides: Authentic v. Automated Communication - Yes, You Can Do BothConverge Consulting
Marketing automation is a huge buzzword in higher education today. Recruiters are busy. Marketers are busy. The need for some degree of automation in our communication processes is undeniable. But what’s the right balance? Can we make automation feel personalized? How?
The answer is yes – automated communications can (and should) feel personal. When it comes to authentic v. automated communication, you don’t have to choose one or the other. In this case, you can have your cake and eat it too! You’re probably wondering how that is possible.
Segmented messaging ensures that we create and deliver authentic personalized content, even when our communications are automated. User personas provide the benchmarks for segmentation and content strategy helps us plan, map and workflow our way to communication that is, in fact, both authentic and automated.

THE EVOLVING SOCIAL MEDIA LANDSCAPE – PAY TO PLAYEvolve Marketing
Social ROI. What does it mean to your company? New followers and fans? Clicks and shares? Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but when it comes to social media success there isn’t an easy or free answer. With the decline in organic reach, algorithms now rule the social game. As the number of businesses and brands vying for the same audience’s attention continues to grow, no social channel can afford to give you a free ride. The cold fact is that there is a new name of the game – pay to play. Facebook. Twitter. LinkedIn. Instagram. YouTube. Pinterest. Snapchat. Discover which platforms your target audience is on, and determine where your social ad dollars should be spent for your greatest ROI.

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!
A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
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.

The Project:
• Objectives:
• To design a shopping list for either breakfast/lunch/supper or a
braai; picnic or party
• To use their Mathematical skills and apply them to a practical
scenario
• The following instructions was given to the learners:
• Use Word Art for the heading
• Choose 6 items from the advertisement provided and include the price of
each item
• Insert 2 pictures from ClipArt
• Change the Font & Colour
• Type your names and class before printing – on a separate sheet of paper,
work out the total of your shopping & how much change you will get from
R200.00
3. Using Microsoft Word
Discussion , Gathering of Information & Completing the Project
• The children worked in pairs and were given a Checkers advertisement.
They had to decide which meal they were going to plan a shopping list
for.
• They circled the 6 items that they agreed on and typed out the shopping
list including all the instructions they were given
• They then worked out the total of their shopping and the change that
they would receive from R200.00
• A few days later they actually went out shopping to the local Spar and
did some shopping for themselves.

Review
• This was a wonderful exercise for the learners, particularly in Life Skills
where the children were given an opportunity for creative thinking. They
discussed, negotiated and gathered information using a real newspaper
advertisement as well as applying their Numeracy skills.
• They were motivated and excited about planning a shopping list. In fact,
a few parents have said that since the project, they’ve been offered by
the children to plan their home and holiday lists.
• I used the project to assess the level of their ICT and other skills.
