Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

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).

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

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.

2. Objective of the session
To understand the
fundamental
knowledge of
STATA/SPSS package
3. 1. How do we decide better
software for the econometric
analysis
2. Why do we need SPSS and
STATA?
3. Introduction to STATA/SPSS
and Differences
4. How do we decide better software
for the econometric analysis
STATA
E-Views
GAMS
SPSS SAS
R
6. Most preferred Packages for the
relevant analysis based on
Literature
Descriptive Statistics - SPSS
Cross section , Time series and panel data and
Complex Data Management system – STATA and SAS
Advanced Econometrics analysis – STATA
Advanced Econometrics Analysis - Linear
Programming – R
Time series analysis - Eviews
Qualitative Limited Dependent Variable Analysis -
STATA
7. Why do we need SPSS?
SPSS is the statistical
package most widely
used by political
scientists NOT by
econometrician. There
are several reasons for
why
8. It is easier to handle and widely used for descriptive
statistics and basic statistical analysis.
One can use it with either a Windows point-and-
click approach or through syntax (i.e., writing out of
SPSS commands). Each has its own advantages, and
the user can switch between the approaches.
Many of the widely used social science data sets
come with SPSS format; this significantly reduces the
work load for transferring the data into SPSS format.
Source: Harvard-MIT Center
9. Limitations
Firstly, SPSS users have less control over statistical output than
many other packages
For beginner , this hardly causes a problem, but once a
researcher wants greater control over the equations or the
output, she or he will need to either choose another package or
learn techniques for working around on SPSS Limitations.
Secondly, SPSS has problems with certain types of data
manipulations But once a researcher begins wanting to
significantly alter data sets, he/she will have to either learn a new
package or develop greater skills at manipulating SPSS.
Source: Harvard-MIT Center
10. Overall, SPSS is a friendly
package for beginner users
NOT for EXPERTS in the field
of ECONOMETRICS.
11. Why do we need STATA?
“STATA is ideal for people who are developing
or modifying statistical procedures…” Acock
(2005)
STATA is adequate on basic analysis but
extraordinary on multivariate
analysis, complex survey designs, limited
dependent variables, epidemiological
methods, survival analysis, panel
designs, time series, and diagnostics
STATA - fast and clear
Can handle large dataset with quick output
12. Cont.,
STATA have the strongest collection of advanced
statistical procedures.
STATA has a command structure that is simple and
consistent
The consistency of STATA is impressive
User-developed procedures can be installed over the
Internet without leaving STATA
The expandability of STATA is its special strength
The documentation for STATA is excellent, and the
ability to download data sets that are used in the
examples in the documentation is very helpful
More information – reference course manual.
13. Introduction to SPSS
SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) is a
statistical analysis and data management software
package. It can generate tabulated reports, charts, and
plots of distributions and trends, descriptive
statistics, and conduct complex statistical analyses.
More details in SPSS manual
14. Structure of SPSS
There are six different windows that can be opened when
using SPSS. (Ref:details Babu and Sanyal, 2009 and
SPSS guide 17.0)
1. Data Editor,
2. Output Navigator,
3. The Pivot Table Editor
4. The Chart Editor
5. The Text Output Editor and
6. The Syntax Editor.
18. Data Editor
In the Data Editor, if you put the mouse cursor on a
variable name (the column heading), a more
descriptive variable label is displayed (if a label has
been defined for that variable).
Further, to view the label one can also choose the
“view” and “value labels”. Descriptive value labels are
now displayed to make it easier to interpret the
responses.
19. Output Navigator or Viewer
The Output Navigator window displays the statistical
results, tables, and charts from the analysis you
performed.
An Output Navigator window opens automatically
when you run a procedure that generates output
In the Output Navigator windows, you can
edit, move, delete and copy your results in a Microsoft
Explorer-like environment.
Running a Analysis
22. Creating and Data manipulation – Defining
variables, Reading data, Transforming data and
Creating tables
23. Introduction to STATA
Stata is a general-purpose statistical software
package created in 1985 by StataCorp.
24. There are four major builds of each
version of Stata
1. Stata/MP for multiprocessor
computers,
2. Stata/SE for large databases,
3. Stata/IC which is the standard
version,
4. Small Stata which is a
smaller, student version of
educational purchase only
25. STATA MP
Stata/MP is the fastest and
largest version of Stata.
Stata/SE, Stata/IC, and Small
