This presentation describes penetration testing with a Who, What, Where, When, and How approach. In the presentation, you may discover the common pitfalls of a bad penetration test and you could identify a better one. You should be able to recognize and differentiate both looking at the methods (attitude) and result.
This presentation will provide an overview of what a penetration test is, why companies pay for them, and what role they play in most IT security programs. It will also include a brief overview of the common skill sets and tools used by today’s security professionals. Finally, it will offer some basic advice for getting started in penetration testing. This should be interesting to aspiring pentesters trying to gain a better understanding of how penetration testing fits into the larger IT security world.

VAPT defines the security measures that are supposed to be put in place to address cyber threats. There are plenty of strategies that can be adopted in Pen Testing which include Black Box Pen Test, White Box Pen Text, Hidden Pen Test, Internal Pen Test, and Gray Box Testing. It is mandatory that VAPT is conducted in order to deter cyber-attacks that are on the upsurge daily. These VAPT ranges from Mobile, Network Penetration Testing, and Vulnerability Assessments.
There are many merits to VAPT in your business which include early error detection in program codes which will prevent cyber attacks. Most companies lose billions of dollars due to cyber-attacks. With VAPT, it guarantees that all loopholes are tightened before an intrusion transpires.

Vulnerability assessment & Penetration testing Basics Mohammed Adam
In these days of widespread Internet usage, security is of prime importance. The almost universal use of mobile and Web applications makes systems vulnerable to cyber attacks. Vulnerability assessment can help identify the loopholes in a system while penetration testing is a proof-of-concept approach to actually explore and exploit a vulnerability.

Advanced Persistent Threat Life Cycle Management
This presentation will cover the full Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) Life Cycle and Management of the resulting intrusions. It will cover both what the APTs are doing as attackers and what we as defenders should be doing for both the APT Mission Flows and the Computer Network Defense (CND) Mission Flows.
The need for automated regression testing is most often associated with making sure code changes don’t break an app. Often ignored is the impact of data changes that are ongoing even after the code is frozen and the app is launched. Making sure that this ongoing data change (including changes to content and configuration data) does not impact app quality requires a continuous testing solution that includes support for powerful data driven testing capabilities.
In this webinar we will specifically look at the challenges in testing the types of changes that occur on a frequent basis in an eCommerce app.

Writing malware while the blue team is staring at youRob Fuller
Talk given at DerbyCon 2016 and RuxCon 2016
Malware authors and reverse engineers have been playing cat and mouse for a number of years now when it comes to writing and reversing of malware. From nation state level malware to the mass malware that infects grandmas and grandpas, mothers and fathers, the different types of malware employ a myriad of techniques to stop those who look at it from guessing the true intent. This talk will be about some of the unorthodox methods employed by some malware to stay hidden from, or out right ignore the reverse engineering community.

Stop Chasing the Version: Compliance with CIPv5 through CIPv99 Tripwire
For many energy companies, readying for compliance with the latest version of NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) standards, whether they be v5, v6, v7 or beyond is not the first priority – delivering reliable energy to the BES is. So, how does a company deal not only with the impending changes of CIP v5, but do so in a manner that best positions them for compliance with future versions and secures their cyber environment?
Join our live webcast on Thursday February 5 to hear from ICF, Tripwire, and AssurX industry experts who are helping organizations already grappling with the new and upcoming CIP requirements, implementing a risk based approach, the steps they are taking to get ahead of the curve, and addressing the uncertainty.
Key Takeaways - Regarding Readiness for NERC CIPv5 (and beyond):
•Best approaches for achieving compliance in a changing environment. (i.e. v5, v6, v7).
•How to save time, resources, and achieve automation with practical guidance on compliance efforts for current and future CIP requirements.
•Practical highlights and key controls from those already working on the most pressing issues.

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.

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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
