Practical Strategies to Designing Engaging PortalsKanwal Khipple
No one starts a project with the intent of building an ugly intranet. We always have good intentions to build the best communication and collaboration portal the company has ever seen. We ensure that executives and end users are involved to design and implement from a portal based on their experience. What ends up happening? Portals are built with too many links to content or even stale content, images that take too long to load or are generic. You even had good intentions to leverage many features and perhaps some are even using it. What you typically find is that after the initial buzz of the launch, adoption fails. Why is that? If that sounds like what you recently went through, then attend this session to learn the strategies and implement them tomorrow. Learn the key principles in building innovative solutions that are simple but capture user’s attention and increase adoption.
By the end of the session, you’ll learn
How to get executives engaged early and ensuring they don’t get in the way
How to effectively run requirement gathering workshops that are not IT focused
What UX strategies are effective in delivering intuitive user experiences
And much more
This session will be filled with examples and there will be giveaways to those that share their own journey.

Practical Tips to Increase SharePoint Adoption Kanwal Khipple
Have you deployed SharePoint but none of your employees are using it? Despite having SharePoint within your organization, end users continue do their work the old fashioned way via email threads, file shares, paper based approval, etc. There is no guarantee that the solution will be adopted. This is the case even if users are involved in every step of your SharePoint solution. Attend this session, to learn techniques I've used to increase adoption of SharePoint solutions that have become slow or stalled.

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.
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!

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.
