This document outlines nine key considerations for companies conducting beta tests of software prototypes. It addresses protecting intellectual property through contractual agreements, limiting the scope of evaluations, maintaining confidentiality, restricting access to prototypes, balancing internal and commercial needs regarding publications, limiting liability, avoiding risks outside a company's control, and managing risks to trade secrets. The overall message is that companies should carefully structure beta tests through agreements to manage risks and protect their intellectual property, proprietary information, and trade secrets.

Beta testing guidelines for developer
Apple's implementation of TestFlight has a number of advantages. You no longer have to create a provisioning profile for ad hoc distribution, which also means that you don't need to specify which devices are allowed to run the test builds. To add testers, you mark team members as internal testers in iTunes Connect or invite external testers via email. Testers receive a TestFlight invitation to install the test build on their device from the native TestFlight app.

How Organizations Can Focus Sales for Maximum Impact
The best PLG businesses have a dirty secret: They all have sales teams. In fact, they’re doubling down on these teams.
But that doesn’t mean their unit economics are going to get any less attractive, or that they’ll build their sales team at the same pace that their lead volume increases.
How are the best companies doing this? Focus. We used to want to build a big funnel to give our sales team plenty of leads—but many of the experts Sam Richard spoke with from InVision, Wistia, Hubspot and more told me that they’re “splitting the funnel,” or narrowing it, to keep their teams laser-focused on the leads that make sense for their business.
Sam just finished a project with an OpenView portfolio company that wanted help identifying ways to keep their sales team focused on the best accounts coming through their free tool. During the course of the work, Sam consulted with experts and pretended to be a lead in order to shape some findings that she would now like to share with the community.
We invite you to check out Sam's findings, best practices and suggestions to rethink how you’re applying sales resources at your own organization. We hope this helps provide some guidance, and we’d love to know how your organization does this or what companies you admire who do this well. Reach out on Twitter or LinkedIn.

Ip audit and strategy studentcopy
The document discusses the importance of conducting an intellectual property (IP) audit. An IP audit identifies a company's IP assets, how they are used, who owns them, and how they can add value. It is important because companies and their IP are constantly changing. An audit ensures a company's IP strategy aligns with its goals and accounts for changes. A comprehensive audit considers all categories of IP as well as related processes, policies, and procedures to understand a company's complete IP situation. This information allows a company to realize the full value of its IP assets.
Working Together - Marketing and Legal
Marketing managers can assist attorneys in intellectual property lawsuits in three ways:
1. By building inherent distinctiveness into products, names, logos and packaging to make them easier to protect from imitation.
2. By collecting and providing evidence of customer confusion between a company's products and imitative competitors' products.
3. By assisting litigation survey experts, with a light touch, in demonstrating the extent of confusion in the marketplace to strengthen intellectual property protection claims.
7Tips
The document provides 7 tips for selecting an affirmative action plan consultant: 1) conduct a self-assessment of needs and resources; 2) conduct an industry assessment to identify the appropriate type of consultant; 3) check the consultant's reputation by speaking with references and reviewing client lists; 4) evaluate the consultant's experience level and years in business; 5) review the consultant's support structure and staffing; 6) consider the consultant's industry affiliations and involvement; 7) understand the consultant's pricing structure and additional costs. The overall document advises conducting thorough due diligence to find a consultant that fully meets the company's affirmative action and compliance needs.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Software Beta Testing
- 1. NINE KEY CONSIDERATIONS Prepared By: Ony Okoro
- 2. A beta test is the final stage of testing a software prototype before it is ready for launch.
- 4. Disclosure of your trade secrets. Third party rights to your prototype. Damage to a third party as a result of the beta test. MANAGE YOUR COMPANY’S RISK AND PROTECT YOUR COMPANY’S INTELLECTUAL
- 6. Will evaluators have rights to improvements? Who will own the data resulting from the evaluation? How can you prevent evaluators from reverse engineering or modifying your prototype? PROTECT YOUR COMPANY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CONTRACTUALLY
- 8. What constitutes proper use of the prototype? Will the evaluator have rights to use the prototype for commercial purposes? LIMITING THE SCOPE OF THE EVALUATION MAY OFFER GREATER PROTECTION FOR YOUR COMPANY
- 10. What role should evaluators have in the market? ◦ Direct Customers ◦ Indirect Customers ◦ Competitors ◦ Academics EVALUATORS SHOULD BE DIVERSE CONSIDER AVOIDING COMPETITORS
- 12. How long will confidentiality obligations last? Under what circumstances will confidentiality obligations no longer apply? How limited should access to the prototype be? STRONG CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENTS OFFER GREATER PROTECTION FOR YOUR COMPANY’S TRADE SECRETS
- 14. Will the evaluation take place at a single site or at multiple sites? Will affiliates of the evaluator have access to the prototype? Will consultants/contractors/agents have access to the prototype? LIMITED ACCESS TO THE PROTOTYPE OFFERS GREATER PROTECTION FOR YOUR COMPANY’S TRADE SECRETS
- 16. Will evaluators have any rights to include data in publications? ◦ If so, what type of data can be included? ◦ How will the publications be reviewed? Will evaluators have any rights to mention their involvement in the beta test? Will evaluators have any rights to publicly comment about the prototype? BALANCE BETWEEN THE INTERNAL NEEDS OF THE EVALUATOR AND YOUR COMPANY’S COMMERCIAL NEEDS IS IMPORTANT
- 18. Will the prototype be provided “AS IS”? Is it appropriate to limit your company’s liability? ◦ If so, what is the scope of the limitation? LIMITED LIABILITY ENABLES YOUR COMPANY TO MANAGE RISK AND OFFERS GREATER PROTECTION FOR YOUR COMPANY
- 20. Will the evaluator have any obligation to protect your company from their use of the prototype? Will you be able to act quickly if your trade secrets are disclosed? How will disputes be handled? ◦ Negotiation/Mediation/Arbitration/Litigation Who should bear the costs of breaches, errors and mistakes? CONSIDER AVOIDING RISK FOR ACTIVITIES OVER WHICH YOUR COMPANY HAS NO AUTHORITY OR CONTROL
