10 Tips to Pass Salesforce Security Review (and Steps to Take If You Don’t!)CodeScience
The Security Review process is the final step every ISV must complete before they can bring their app to market on the AppExchange. Yet it’s not uncommon for ISVs to fail on their first attempt. For many, it can take 2 to 3 more tries to pass, delaying your time to market.
But Security Review doesn’t have to be a mystery! In this webinar, Salesforce Security Review Operation Analyst, Lubdha Dahale, joins CodeScience ISV Specialist, Jeremy Engler, and CodeScience Global Alliances Manager, Erin Murray, to de-mystify the Sec Rev process and provide actionable advice to help you succeed.

Are you up to speed on Salesforce’s License Management App (LMA) and Channel Order App (COA)? Maybe you’re not sure if you’re using these critical tools correctly to manage your product licenses and report revenue? Then this is the webinar for you!
Join Salesforce AppExchange Program Strategy Manager Jackie Oh, CodeScience ISV Specialist Jeremy Engler, and CodeScience Global Alliances Manager Erin Murray as they provide an overview of the LMA and COA along with best practices and a new dashboard preview.

Health Cloud: Digital Transformation Driving Speed to ValueCodeScience
Digital transformation can be a tremendous challenge in any industry, especially in response to a compelling event. So far in 2020, we’ve experienced one of the most profound examples of a compelling event — a pandemic.
Today, many businesses, especially healthcare organizations, are looking for ways to quickly upgrade digital solutions or rapidly develop new products to help solve pressing challenges presented in 2020. For ISVs, Health Cloud offers many advantages for building products in the Healthcare and Life Sciences arena.

WEBINAR: Proven Patterns for Loading Test Data for Managed Package TestingCodeScience
Scratch orgs are extremely valuable tools for Salesforce developers, but due to their individual, disposable nature, a source of truth for QA data is often not accounted for. Without a single repository for QA data, many developers may be testing against incomplete data sets, skewing their results. In our latest tech webinar, we discuss implications planning for QA data can have on Salesforce development.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- Why it’s essential to have a plan in place early on how to deploy data to scratch orgs and QA orgs.
- Shortcuts which can inadvertently hide bugs that don't manifest until tested with real data, and lengthen the time it takes to complete a task.
- Strategies for maintaining data models as projects progress and as data is added or removed to stay realistic and current.
CodeScience Lead Salesforce Developer, Bobby Tamburrino will dive into these topics and provide key insights that can help ISVs succeed on the AppExchange.
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.

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:

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.
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.
