GLOBALIZATION OF FINANCE. ARSHAD HIPPARGIaarshsaab
Financial globalization has led to significant benefits through increased development of financial systems but also risks of crises and contagion. Advances in technology and computerization have made information sharing and cross-border transactions much easier, driving increased globalization of finance. However, computer-based trading can also potentially lead to market instability through feedback loops and a lack of common information. High frequency trading in particular has been accused of possible market abuse through predatory behaviors. Overall regulation and international cooperation may be needed to manage risks from the globalization of highly computerized financial systems.

The document discusses professional ethics in business administration from an Islamic perspective. It argues that while business administration generates value, demands skills, and carries great ethical responsibility, the field has not been properly professionalized due to myths that downplay the need for education and promote the demoralization of business. These myths have contributed to problems like wealth inequality, environmental damage, and the prioritization of profits over morality. The document advocates developing professional ethics standards for business administration to promote credibility and behavioral norms, but notes this may not be sufficient to fully instill morality without broader cultural and societal changes. It concludes by questioning which ethical school or framework should inform such standards.

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.

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.

Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

• Currently the ports sector is encountered with
many challenges, including:
Ship size growth and cascading effects
Shipping market concentration and pressures from
alliances
Fierce regional competition between ports
The rising need for capacity developments
The upheaving need for improving the port
productivity
The transformations in supply and demand chains (

Contextual Implications in ports
It is essential to comprehend that:
• Ports are seen as asset-rich complexes and
their development is extremely capital-
intensive and time-consuming..
• Any port development project is seen as an
irreversible, sunk-cost investment.
• The terminals industry is a semi-manufacture
industry that relies on colossal fleets of
equipment, facilities, and resources.
• Nearly all ports perform by utilization of
maximally 60-70% of their resources.
• They are all affected deeply by their
customers, competitors, upstream and
downstream stakeholders, and the PESTEL
conditions.
• They are encountered by new cost-attracting
concerns like sustainability, security, etc.
The ports and terminals are in need of Transformative change.

Internet of Things
• IoT is seen as the infrastructure of the information
society
• In 2020, there will be over 50-billion connected devices
on earth (i.e. 6.6 devices per each living man).
• The emergence of IoT will embed and enhance
intelligence in every aspect of human life.
• It is estimated that IoT will generate a value equal to
4.6 trillion dollars for the public sector and 14.4 trillion
dollars for the private sector in this decade(Bradley,
Reberger, Dixit, & Gupta, 2013).
• Ports are among the most capable sectors for
engendering such value-added as they usually function
simultaneously as international trade gateways/hubs,
logistic platforms, and industrial clusters.
• IoT can also facilitate the developments of:

• By this trend, 90% of the data in the world today
has been generated in the past three years.
• This tremendous growth of data has developed
the ‘Big Data’ as large pools of data that can be
captured, communicated, aggregated, stored, and
analyzed.
• Most part of Big Data is comprised of an
incalculable amount of transactional data being
produced by companies, financial institutions, and
online intermediaries.
• This includes trillions of bytes of information
about buyers, suppliers, and operations of critical
interest to businesses and financial analysts.
• In the coming years, the Big Data will be among
the core factors of value creation in the global
economy.

• Boosting their productivity by collecting
more accurate and detailed performance
information through creating and storing
more operational , technical maintenance,
and transactional data and their analysis for

industry.
• Many processes have been automated in the
past decades including vessel planning, yard
planning. container checks, etc.
• In a more specific sense, automation of
container handling is emerging to enhance the
port productivity levels in response to recent
ship size developments.
• Currently around 30 container terminals are
automated by unmanning their yard handling
equipment or terminal transport vehicles
around the world.
• The automation cuts labor costs, and provides a
more predictable, consistent and stable
container handling performance.
• More focus is forming on intelligent algorithms
that can predict equipment behavior that
enables prevention of break downs and down

• Currently the smart port concept is focused on operations,
environment, and energy consumption as its main area.
• The Smart Port concept is a new way of thinking that
recognizes the necessity and advantages of intellectual
development of ports ( with special focus on their IT-
based structural capitals).
• By some domestication, it can be effectively oriented to
function in terms of development of Islamic Republic of
