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.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
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.

1. We are using social media for:
Communication
Engagement
Collaboration
Diane Sims & Tanya Horan
Kirklees Council
2. Our approach…
1. It’s about the outcomes, not the technology.
We want our staff, ward councillors and partners to think about how
social media can help us to achieve specific outcomes, work together
better, improve public services and contribute to the aims of Kirklees
Council.
2. We use a very broad definition of social media.
3. Our guidelines are available online…
…so everyone can find out what we’re doing.
http://socialmedia.kirklees.gov.uk
6. Community conversations is about making it easier to share.
The site features:
• blogs and news feeds from community groups
• twitter updates from local organisations
• useful articles, videos, documents etc.
• comments and questions
Much of the content is updated automatically, using RSS feeds.
www.communitykirklees.org.uk
7.
8. Content feeds in from other sites - groups can quickly see what each other are doing.
9. Community groups and staff who support the voluntary sector can
post their own articles, so everyone can share what they know.
13. #kirkcommunity – 89 community twitter feeds from the Kirklees area, and counting…

Our Facebook adventures so far…
19. • Why bother?
• How do you know if it’s working?
• Unknown territory
• Learn as you go along
• Be prepared for complainers and fans
• Before you start, do your research, have a look
at what other people are doing
22. • What do the people
of Bradford want to
find out about?
• Bins, dog control,
council tax….and a
lot more besides!
• Avoid ‘council speak’
keep it friendly and
informal
24. • Involve
people
• Encourage
their
contributions
• People love
sharing their
photos!

29. The Nitty Gritty
• Risk management
• Share ideas, thoughts, queries with colleagues
• Complete the ‘About’ section on your page
• Remember facebook users expect a quicker
response due to the nature of this type of
media.
30. Get staff on board
• Encourage staff to ‘like’ your page
• Add the facebook address to your email
signature
• Promote it via any staff newsletters/intranets
• Don’t forget all staff are part of the Bradford
community and will have networks of their
own.
32. Community reporting
‘Election Tales’ - residents told the story of the local
elections and encouraged more people to vote.
Joined-up approach
People could find out what was happening live,
in whatever way suited them, including:
• Twitter for up to the minute news.
• Facebook for useful links, updates and interviews.
• Feeds and widgets for people to use wherever they want.
• Kirklees website elections section, linked to everything.
33. Live election results via:
Kirklees Council web site
INtouch kirklees digital TV

36.
37. What’s important?
1. Think about sharing information, not owning it.
• Make sure people can find your content – wherever they want it.
• Put things in a format that can be reused – encourage it.
• Help others to share their content – be generous.
2. Build skills and confidence.
• Choose free and low cost tools – show people how to use them.
• Provide open guidelines – be clear about your approach.
• Value the skills and experiences that people already have.
3. Don’t forget the engagement…
