Reducing Attack Surface in Budget Constrained EnvironmentsDenim Group
Sprawling networks, streaming vendor vulnerability updates, and an application portfolio that remains a mystery keep you up late wondering where your weakest link exists. Budget constraints make you wonder where to begin, given that the responsibility to protect your organization remains firmly on your shoulders. How do savvy leaders identify the most pressing exposures and prioritize their efforts given limited budgets? What are the strategies that sophisticated IT and security leaders pursue to identify the scariest vulnerabilities and fix them before attackers find them? This session will lay out actionable plans to immediately identify and reduce more of your organization’s attack surface.
As public and private cloud adoption skyrockets, the number of attacks against cloud infrastructure is also increasing dramatically. Now more than ever, it is crucial to secure your cloud assets and data against advanced threats.
We’ll dig into what it means to be successful in the cloud and what successful organizations do more of (and less of) than their less successful peers. We’ll look across technologies adopted, organizational and operational practices, and vendors embraced.

Most organizations have made significant investments in security controls to enable prevention and detection. But when incidents occur, is your firm able to quickly mitigate them? The best security teams are. And as a result their organizations can learn from them and improve their performance next time.
This webinar will review critical components of proper incident mitigation including:
- Conducting post mortem and updating SOPs
- Evaluating historical response performance
- Generating reports for management, auditors, and authorities
Our featured speakers for this webinar will be:
- Stephen Brennan, Global Technical Consulting Lead - Managing Partner, CSC
- Ted Julian, Chief Marketing Officer, Co3 Systems
Most of the money thrown at securing information systems misses the weak spots. Huge amounts are spent securing infrastructure while web applications are left exposed. It is a crisis that is largely ignored.
Software development teams, under pressure to deliver features and meet deadlines, often respond to concerns about the security of their web applications by commissioning a last-minute security assessment and then desperately attempt to address only the most glaring findings. They may even simply throw up a web application firewall to mitigate the threats. Such bolted-on solutions are not long-term answers to web application security.
Instead, we advocate a built-in approach. We will show that by weaving security into the software development life cycle, and using mature resources for security coding standards, toolkits and frameworks such as those from OWASP, development teams can consistently produce secure systems without dramatically increasing the development effort or cost.

What's New In CompTIA Security+ - Course Technology Computing Conference
Presenter: Mark Ciampa, Western Kentucky University
The new CompTIA Security+ exam (SY0-401) is projected to be rolled out in the late spring of 2014. This exam will have several significant changes from the previous exam. These include an expanded emphasis on topics such as securing mobile devices, cloud computing, cryptography, and threats and vulnerabilities. In addition, CompTIA is continuing to use performance-based questions on Security+ exams, requiring test-takers to configure firewall access control lists, match ports with services, and analyze log files. What exactly will the new Security+ exam cover? How will the updated Cengage Security+ Guide to Network Security Fundamentals 5th Edition address these changes? And what are the best ways to help students be prepared for the new Security+ exam with its performance-based questions? This session will look at what's new in CompTIA Security+ and how we can teach security to our students.

Process Whitelisting and Resource Access Control For ICS Computers, Kuniyasu ...Digital Bond
The Control System Security Center (CSSC) in Japan has an active project in their lab to apply process white list control and computer resource access control to Windows servers and workstations in an ICS. These security controls can be very effective in ICS computers that are relatively static as compared to corporate network systems.
The process white list control limits process creation with parent-child relation, SHA1 hash value of an executable file, and conflict of interest. The computer resource access control limits access from a process to file, network (IP address and port), and device. Attend this session learn how CSSC is applying this technology and lessons learned in the lab environment.

Information technology is a complex business, at best. While IT can provide amazing benefits, it still requires vigilance and diligence to ensure it is running correctly and that it is secure. A security framework can be an excellent tool to evaluate what you might be missing and confirm that what you are already doing is spot-on correct. This session will discuss the importance of using security frameworks and walk attendees through the NIST Cyber Security Framework to review how the framework functions, how to use a framework, and most importantly, how the use of a framework can and will benefit their organization.

Effective Security Monitoring for IBM i: What You Need to KnowPrecisely
Defending against the increasing sophistication and complexity of today’s security threats requires a comprehensive, multi-layered approach. The key is to maximize the strength of each layer of your defenses, and then ask yourself “If this layer is breached, what do I have in place to prevent further damage?”
Even if you have implemented the proper layers of protection, effective security still requires a thoughtful and comprehensive approach to monitoring and reporting. Monitoring plays a critical role in any effective IT security strategy. It's like having a security guard constantly patrolling your digital infrastructure, vigilantly watching for suspicious activity and potential threats. Security monitoring allows you to detect threats as soon as possible, giving you a better chance of responding quickly and effectively.
Join us for this webinar we will cover:
• The best practices for monitoring your IBM i environment.
• The benefits of combining your IBM i monitoring with other IT systems
• A demonstration of a new Assure Security Monitoring and Reporting interface
IBM i Security: Identifying the Events That Matter MostPrecisely
Making Sense of Critical Security Data
Today’s world of complex regulatory requirements and evolving security threats requires finding simple ways to monitor all IBM i system and database activity, identify security threats and compliance issues in real time and produce clear reports.
The IBM i operating system produces a wealth of security-related information but organizations still face hurdles
in terms of working with such large data volumes. Integrating IBM i security information into a SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) solution is becoming critical to enable early detection and quick response to security incidents.
In this webinar, we will discuss:
- Key IBM i log files and static data sources that must be monitored
- Automating real-time analysis of log files to identify threats to system and data security
- Integrating IBM i security data into SIEM solutions for a clear view of security across multiple platforms
With more than 50,000 new malware created every day organisations can no longer afford to risk the financial and reputational impacts of a security or data breach, which can be too much for a business to recover from. Because of this, IT managers face increasing scrutiny and pressure from CEOs, managing directors and boards to prove that they are keeping the organisation secure.
The changing threat landscape means organisations need to be vigilant and smarter about security. While businesses still face threats from infected devices and malware, attackers have also moved beyond that. For example, there is an increasing number of targeted email attacks with cyber criminals spending time to monitor communications so they can imitate emails that are so sophisticated that even relatively savvy users will open them.
This webinar will explore the building blocks required to ensure you have the roadmap required to best protection against cyber attacks. We will provide you with a high level view of the following topics:
· Audit and discovery – What are your weaknesses and are you compliant?
· Education – Do your employees know when not to open that attachment?
· Policy – Do you have the right policies for your industry?
· Technology – Where to start and what has changed?

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.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
