The United States has historically struggled with how to treat all its citizens equitably and fairly while wealth and power are concentrated in a very small segment of our society. Now, in the face of growing public awareness and outcry about the centuries-long injustices experienced by African Americans, Native Americans, new immigrants, and other marginalized groups, we believe that our nation urgently needs collaborative multisector approaches toward equity and justice. For maximum effectiveness, these approaches must include and prioritize leadership by those most affected by injustice and inequity in order to effect structural and systemic changes that can support and sustain inclusive and healthy communities. Traditional community organizing and working for policy change will supplement the collaborative approach. We believe that efforts that do not start with treating community leaders and residents as equal partners cannot later be reengineered to meaningfully share power. In short, coalitions and collaborations need a new way of engaging with communities that leads to transformative changes in power, equity, and justice.

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.

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.

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:
2. “YOU NEVER CHANGE THINGS
BY FIGHTING THE EXISTING
REALITY. TO CHANGE
SOMETHING, BUILD A NEW
MODEL THAT MAKES THE
EXISTING MODEL OBSOLETE.”
― BUCKMINSTER FULLER
3. ANATHA
OUR NAME, ANATHA, COMES FROM ANATHAPINDIKA, THE CHIEF LAY DISCIPLE OF
GAUTAMA BUDDHA CONSIDERED BY MANY TO EXEMPLIFY THE THE BUDDHIST
VIRTUE OF GENEROSITY.
This fundamental principle is what interests us, inspires us, and drives us: building systems of generosity, of abundance
— systems built for collective creation rather than atomized consumption
Let’s begin with identifying the problem:
What we refer to as structures of violence. Structural violence is any system or organization that prevents human
beings from self-actualizing. This manifests in many ways, from the insidious everyday assault on well-being to broad
reaching devastation of entire populations. In both cases, there is tremendous loss, socially, economically and
individually, as people are in varied ways prevented from realizing their potential.What is so dangerously insidious
about this is that, as a culture, we assume it’s just the way it is. We even assume scarcity is a fundamental condition of
life — and so we accept, perhaps with a sigh, that some people will inevitably starve and die. So it goes, we say to
ourselves. We may or may not think this is a bad thing but, in both cases, we assume it’s a necessary thing.
E D W A R D D E L E O N H I C K M A N
4. BACKGROUND
At Anatha, we recognize the way things are. But we choose to challenge
the assumption that it’s natural or inevitable. We’re focused on the way
things are evolving — and on the way things could be instead, if we just
put our minds, wills, and resources to it.
No doubt, we could discuss why these systems of violence exist. But while
the past can teach us many lessons, we’re not interested in assigning
blame — instead, we’re interested in identifying the problem clearly in
order to create solutions.
It is precisely this assumption that we
want to question.
E D W A R D D E L E O N H I C K M A N
5. In addition to an earth that is being scorched by a system of unbridled
consumption, roughly half of the people in the world today live well
below the poverty line. For the third year in a row, food insecurity has
risen globally, touching nearly a billion lives. Another quarter billion
people don’t have access to a decent education and a shameful 1.6 billion
lack adequate shelter.
Setting the tremendous moral dilemma poverty presents aside for a
moment to consider the issue in purely economic terms, it’s extremely
inefficient to allow so much human resource to go to waste. Every
individual we fail to self-actualize is a net loss to society — someone who
didn’t contribute their insight, wit, intelligence, love. We lose that person’s
productivity, their social contribution, their purpose, and whatever
potential that might have emerged had conditions around them been
more favorable.
Simply put, people who do not have adequate resources to meet their basic
needs cannot self-actualize, and we are all the lesser for it. We all lose the
potential of that person, who is scrambling just to survive.And while the
problem is enormous, we believe the opportunity is equally big.
We’re not naive. We see the scale of the
problem.
E D W A R D D E L E O N H I C K M A N
6. Decentralization creates fundamentally new models in which people are no
longer consumers or products: they become partners. This is a radical shift, and
precisely what excites us about this technology. We believe that the systems of
the future are both generative and abundant, that by giving back users the value
that they themselves create by their inclusion in our ecosystem, we can create a
self-sustaining solution to the global problem of structural violence.
Needless to say, we don’t expect that we will solve these massive problems alone
or all at once. On the contrary, we believe it will take an entire ecosystem, a
network of networks, myriad information-age economic tools to unlock value on
a global scale. This in turn will position humanity to free itself from structural
violence once and for all, via self-sustaining systems of structural flourishing.
The information age has already revolutionized media and communications in
ways we could not have dreamed of mere decades ago. We believe the
emergence of decentralized trust networks, digital assets, and immutable ledgers
are better understood when viewed as the transition from industrial age
economic-governance tools into information age economic governance tools.
Now is the time to transform the rest of our civilization by bringing our
economic and governance systems into the information age as well.
The solution is deceptively simple.
E D W A R D D E L E O N H I C K M A N
7. And such is our promise at Anatha. One focus of Anatha’s projects is platform
interoperability and network cooperation. We build environments that unlock
value for the user, that can in turn be used to purchase real goods and services.
We are engineering systems of abundance that perpetuate collective
prosperity.Taken in that light, it is then perhaps easier to understand Anatha’s
central supposition: that information age economic tools have the potential to
unlock an age of abundance, (which also explains the title of my upcoming book,
“An Information Age of Abundance”). This in turn will allow us to tackle the
seemingly insurmountable problem of Structural Violence — by creating what
we at Anatha call systems of “Structural Flourishing.”
Structural Flourishing is any system, organization, or government that facilitates
the self-actualization of human beings. We believe this is not only possible due to
the advent of trustless, decentralized, information age economic tools: we believe
these outcomes to be both inevitable and tremendously profitable for any
organization or government that rallies behind their emergence.
Such is the promise, and possibility, of
decentralization.
E D W A R D D E L E O N H I C K M A N
8. THIS IS ANATHA’S PURPOSE.
We build systems that
combat structural
violence, by creating
environments in which
structural flourishing
can take root instead.
We put humans at the
forefront of all of our
design choices: human
solutions for a
distinctly human
problem.
