EU General Data Protection Regulation & Transborder Information FlowDavid Erdos
These slides are based on the talk I gave to the Wisconsin International Law Journal's Annual Symposium "Stamping Privacy's Passport? The Role of International Law in Safeguarding Individual Privacy" (Wisconsin, USA; 8 April 2016). This talk argued that European data protection's formal understanding of transborder data flow regulation (TBDF) is not only potentially very broad but has not appropriately balanced data protection against other key rights such as freedom of information and association. Many of these existing structural difficulties are exacerbated under the newly agreed General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In order to better reconcile the values at stake, Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) should also develop models to "authorize" low-risk TBDFs via self-certification by data controllers themselves. Member States should also make broad use of the derogations the Regulation leaves available. More generally, a contextual, risk-based interpretation of the GPDR must be developed which seeks to provide robust privacy and other individual safeguards without putting in jeopardy Europe’s other core values and liberties.
'Cyber in the Liverpool City Region' hosted by the North West Cyber Security Cluster on Thursday 24th March 2022 in Liverpool. Three guest speakers discussing Cyber Security careers and university courses, How does the Digital Tech Cluster help tech start-ups and scale-ups?, and Cyber Security and Space.
The Click and Protect team exhibited at The Business Show 2022 for 2 days in November. This was to raise awareness around Cyber Security for SME, help them grow and develop to achieve their goals. Kevin Else, Director, also had a speaker slot at the event to discuss free tools that businesses can take advantage of to benefit their operations.
Our Manchester event in April called ‘Cyber across the North West – a great opportunity for the region’, allowed attendees to network, learn about the Cluster, opportunities within the region and how to get involved. At the end of the event, an open discussion took place, to really find out what projects attendees wanted the Cluster to concentrate on.
Returning to London for its sixth year next march this event is attracting significant interest. Join us at SMi Group's European Smart Grid Cyber Security 2016 conference & exhibition

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.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
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.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
