UEFI Firmware Rootkits: Myths and RealitySally Feller
Earlier this month, we teased a proof of concept for UEFI ransomware which was presented at RSA Conference 2017. The HackingTeam, Snowden, Shadow Brokers, and Vault7 leaks have revealed that UEFI/BIOS implants aren't just a theoretical concept but have actually been weaponized by nation states to conduct cyber espionage. Physical access requirements are a thing of the past, these low level implants can be installed remotely by exploiting vulnerabilities in the underlying UEFI system.
Today at BlackHat Asia 2017, we are disclosing two vulnerabilities in two different models of the GIGABYTE BRIX platform:
GB-BSi7H-6500 – firmware version: vF6 (2016/05/18)
GB-BXi7-5775 – firmware version: vF2 (2016/07/19)
QEMU Development and Testing Automation Using MS HCK - Anton Nayshtut and Yan...Yan Vugenfirer
Windows Hardware Certification Kit (HCK) is a set of tools, processes, and tests for certifying HW devices, device drivers and systems. Being a great test environment for QEMU devices, Windows Guest device drivers and related Host subsystems, it's still frightening due to deployment complexity. We'll share a way to deploy HCK setup(s) on top of QEMU VMs in just a few minutes.

Firebird 3: provider-based architecture, plugins and OO approach to API Mind The Firebird
This session will be devoted to the architecture of Firebird 3:
The Interface-based API of plugins, and its configuration (which can be done separately for each database)
OSRI (Open Systems Relational Interface) implementation with plugins (more details about OSRI)
Non-SQL stored procedures and triggers with plugins
Safe passwords and network encryption
Trace plugin and more
Who would be interested in this topic?
The plugins API in Firebird 3 is designed to significantly improve the capabilities of embedding external code.
There will be areas of extension which will allow the following:
external triggers and procedures (written in almost any programming language)
custom trace plugins
security plugins to implement custom users identification (biometrics, etc)
traffic encryption using algorithms others than SHA1 and RC4
Special attention will be devoted to non-standard providers, such as bridges to external (non-Firebird) databases or ODBC connection and caching abilities.

ITT 2014 - Peter Steinberger - Architecting Modular CodebasesIstanbul Tech Talks
Everyone knows the pain of convoluted code as an application grows and feature after feature is being added. In this talk Peter lets you explore ideas how to grow your project in a healthy, maintainable way, how to manage dependencies, how to design code around testability, how to write plugins and even some practical solutions around the idea of aspect oriented programming. This is all based on a large-scale 150k lines project and Peter shows some production code as well.

The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.
Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.
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!

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.

• Mobile Project development is targeted to devices that have certain Device Configuration and
Device Profile. Therefore MTJ’s Project has also Device Configuration and Device Profile
defined.
• It’s possible to select a set of Service APIs to the Project. Based on the selected set of APIs
corresponding Jar –libraries are added to the project.
• Project always has default device that matches to the Projects definitions. That default device
also gives the needed Jar –libraries to the Project.
