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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Providing the best spaces for people to
- Focus
- Collaborate
- Meet
- Contemplate
- Have fun
- Learn
15. Implications
• Real time insights
• Feedback from building user
• Improved security
• Productivity
• Design improvements
• Reduced operating costs
• Compelling business cases
Expectations have changed; Building users want spaces that support their productivity.
Creative ideas for our colleagues and customers
Smart is a basic user need. (HVAC, lighting and multifunctional spaces)
Buildings as efficient assets or overheads?
Lifecycle costing and marginal gains- does the building perform to design criteria and what can be done to improve this
Connectivity of technology provides new and exciting opportunities to transform systems, insights and management of real estate.
Who are the target beneficiaries? Building managers or building users?
BS view is that if we shift attitudes to embrace smart building features, there must be an end user benefit i.e whats in it for me?
Remote working capability is widespread.
Both have implications smart/intelligent building operation.
Space utilisation?
Maintenance and cleaning of space?
Do I know how my space is used?
How do users rate the performance of my spaces?
What is my evidence base for the business case?
Our experience will be no different, we want to do the best with what we have.
Striking a balance between centralised and remote – role dependant as the tech is there to facilitate both.
The real estate is critical to accommodating our assets and ensuring these are resilient and reliable. Without solid foundations remote working capability is compromised.
Both have centralised and remote working have implications smart/intelligent building operation.
Space utilisation?
Maintenance and cleaning of space?
Do I know how my space is used?
How do users rate the performance of my spaces?
What is my evidence base for the business case?
How we have used smart technology
OBS – insights to plant operation/performance.
Seeing operational parameter deviations before impact
Resolving these by connecting analytics to workflow systems
Remote access for technicians
Use case – feedback
We provide spaces but want user feedback on comfort
Use case – mobile/cell phone security pass
How many times have you forgot your security pass
I bet you know where your mobile device is right now!
We sometimes find that people don’t realise they have lost their security pass until they need to access a building or area.
How we have used smart technology
Real time dashboards that show all HVAC plant performance against set points on one page
% time performance within parameters
Energy trend correlation with plant performance
Analytics use cases
Summary
Real time insights
Feedback from building users
Improved security
Productivity – but be careful on measurement methodology – there are no standardised units of measurement. Both subjective and objective measures are being trialled.
Design improvements – how do we know if the last refit can be improved? Space utilisation, plant operation, thermal comfort insights
Reduced operating costs via optimisation of plant operation
Compelling business cases
How we implemented.
Innovative attitude – transformation to do things differently
How we implemented
There are exciting opportunities for us to test and implement new ways of delivering services
How we implemented
Theese have been trials – there is a risk of success and failure.
Be prepared to accept both
How we implemented
Perceptions of end users; big brother from space utilisation tech and previous knowledge of adverse reactions to smart ceiling technologies.
We may not foresee some implications of smart buildings.
From an operators perspective, some things are great (space utilisation insights), however users may think differently
Main Likes; shared vision, speed of response, agility to change, user insights.
Main dislikes; lack of vision, narrow use cases, low added value outputs,
What are the things vendors could do right now to make things easier.
Provide real use cases translated to RoI
Shaping the future
Rating of our services- if it isn’t rated now it will be.
Providing users with new benefits –

Increasing accessibility - Viewing menus online for onsite catering services,
Take home food ordering from onsite catering vendors
Real time space utilisation data - Finding collaboration spaces
Internal mapping - wayfinding in larger complexes
Personal performance feedback – rate my meeting/language analysis – positives/negatives and tonal analysis.
Personal and organisational wellbeing insights – sitting versus movement
