Data Security & Data Privacy: Data AnonymizationPatric Dahse
As data and security and data privacy experts in SAP, Natuvion presents a solution to help comply with data protection conformity. Pressure to create data protection conformity persistently increases in the context of the new Data Protection Act.
Our Test Data Anonymization tool (TDA) offers the possibility to eliminate the standard method of SAP Test, Training and/or project systems being built on a complete copy of the production system. The problem with this method is that fragile and comprehensive data is easily accessible for internal and external employees to see therefore, putting a company at risk of costly fines for breaches of GDPR. Instead, Natuvion’s TDA tool quickly offers test data completely anonymized, allowing data to be protected.
In this webinar, we will explain why data should be anonymized, what is the scope as well as key features. We will also go through an example of how this tool works along with how a typical implementation takes place.

BranchCache is a new feature available in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 that reduces WAN bandwidth usage. It improves application responsiveness when workstations in a remote location access content from the head office or datacenter. It does this by downloading and caching content on the local network as it is requested, making it immediately available to other clients that subsequently request the same content.
This paper examines the BranchCache functionality specifically in the context of software distribution using System Center Configuration Manager 2007 to determine if it is an optimal solution for the deployment of software, patches and operating systems to remote, serverless branches.

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.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Introduction
Overview
This document is intended to provide <Customer Name> with a list of success criteria driving
the success ofSymantec Drive Encryption. The objective is to demonstrate the key capabilities
of Symantec Drive Encryption for <Customer Name> environment.
Symantec Drive Encryption
Symantec Drive Encryption is a software product from Symantec Corporation that secures
files stored on protected drives with transparent full disk encryption. If a protected systemis
lost or stolen, data stored on the protected drive is completely inaccessible without the
proper authentication.
Components
Component Description
Symantec Drive Encryption (part of
Symantec Encryption Desktop)
A software product that locks down the contents
of your system. To deploy Symantec Drive
Encryption, you must install the Symantec Drive
Encryption software on a client system using a
customized installer that you create using the
Symantec Encryption Management Server.
Symantec Encryption Management
Server
A platform for creation and management of
Symantec Corporation encryption applications,
including Symantec Drive Encryption. The
Symantec Encryption Management Server must
be able to communicate with your Symantec
Drive Encryption clients so that it can:
Provide a pre-configured installer for the
system
Enroll and bind the client to the server
Provide and enforce policies
Provide recovery options
5. Last Update: November 2016 5
Proof of Concept (POC) Environment
Architecture
The Symantec Encryption Management Server, is designed to be a simple addition to an
existing infrastructure. By using a combination of standards-based utilities and customized
components encapsulated in a soft appliance, the Symantec Encryption Management Server
offers fastdeployments, web-based management, and minimal need for training, rollout, and
support costs.
By bringing allencryption features into asingleclientpackageand by managing it with asingle
console, Symantec Encryption Desktop Drive Encryption offers the most comprehensive data
protection suite in the industry and the ability to easily enable what is needed and disable
what isn’t. For this POC, only the Symantec Drive Encryption feature would be evaluated.
The Symantec Encryption Management Server also synchronizes and gathers information
from LDAP servers, such as an Active Directory server. This allows an organization to simply
assign Symantec Drive Encryption features and functionality to various groups of users if
necessary and allows users to easily be excluded as part of a phased rollout.
The Symantec Encryption Desktop can either be deployed manually or automatically through
a Software Deployment Tool such as Microsoft SCCM, Symantec Client Management Suite,
Active Directory GPO etc.

Before you encrypt a disk (or re-encrypt a disk after reinstalling Symantec Encryption
Desktop), ensure that the System Integrity Protection feature in Mac OS X 10.11 is disabled.
You can enable System Integrity Protection again after disk encryption is initiated.
Symantec recommends that you disable System Integrity Protection while the computer is
rebooting after you install Symantec Encryption Desktop. In the event that an automatic
encryption policy is effect, this will ensure that System Integrity Protection is already disabled
when disk encryption begins automatically.
If you need to re-install Symantec Encryption Desktop, make sure that you disable System
Integrity Protection before you run the installation package.
