Social engineering is a form of hacking that exploits human trust and helpfulness. It is done through impersonation, phone calls, email, or in-person interactions to obtain sensitive information. Anyone can be a target if the social engineer can build rapport and trust. Common techniques include pretending to need technical help, claiming to be from the same organization, or creating a sense of urgency or fear in the target. Education and strict security policies are needed to combat social engineering threats.Social engineering presentation

Social engineering is a type of attack that manipulates people into revealing sensitive information or performing actions that violate security policies. It works by exploiting human trust and the natural tendency to help others. Attackers first gather information about targets, then develop relationships to gain trust before exploiting that trust to obtain access or steal information. Common social engineering techniques include phishing emails and calls where attackers pretend to be from technical support. While no system can fully prevent social engineering, organizations can minimize risks by educating users and restricting what sensitive information users provide over the phone or to unknown parties.Social Engineering - Strategy, Tactics, & Case Studies

Russia is one of the most aggressive nations when it comes to state coordinated cyberattacksand Ukraine has been at the center of their crosshairs for 3 years. This report, provided the State Service of Special Communications and Information Protection of Ukraine contains an incredible amount of cybersecurity insights, showcasing the coordinated aggressive cyberwarfare campaigns of Russia against Ukraine.
It brings to the forefront that understanding your adversary, especially an aggressive nation state, is important for cyber defense. Knowing their motivations, capabilities, and tactics becomes an advantage when allocating resources for maximum impact.
Intelligence shows Russia is on a cyber rampage, leveraging FSB, SVR, and GRU resources to professionally target Ukraines critical infrastructures, military, and international diplomacy support efforts.
The number of total incidents against Ukraine, originating from Russia, has steadily increased from 1350 in 2021 to 4315 in 2024, but the number of actual critical incidents has been managed down from a high of 1048 in 2022 to a mere 59 in 2024showcasing how the rapid detection and response to cyberattacks has been impacted by Ukraines improved cyber resilience.
Even against a much larger adversary, Ukraine is showcasing outstanding cybersecurity, enabled by strong strategies and sound tactics. There are lessons to learn for any enterprise that could potentially be targeted by aggressive nation states.

Explore the ease of managing Firecracker microVM with the firecracker-python. In this session, I will introduce the basics of Firecracker microVM and demonstrate how this custom SDK facilitates microVM operations easily. We will delve into the design and development process behind the SDK, providing a behind-the-scenes look at its creation and features. While traditional Firecracker SDKs were primarily available in Go, this module brings a simplicity of Python to the table.OpenPOWER Foundation & Open-Source Core Innovations

This OrionX's 14th semi-annual report on the state of the cryptocurrency mining market. The report focuses on Proof-of-Work cryptocurrencies since those use substantial supercomputer power to mint new coins and encode transactions on their blockchains. Only two make the cut this time, Bitcoin with $18 billion of annual economic value produced and Dogecoin with $1 billion. Bitcoin has now reached the Zettascale with typical hash rates of 0.9 Zettahashes per second. Bitcoin is powered by the world's largest decentralized supercomputer in a continuous winner take all lottery incentive network.FIDO Seminar: Targeting Trust: The Future of Identity in the Workforce.pptx

Utilities and water companies play a key role in the creation of clean drinking water. The creation and maintenance of clean drinking water is becoming a critical problem due to pollution and pressure on the environment. A lot of data is necessary to create clean drinking water. For fieldworkers, two types of data are key: Asset data in an asset management system (EAM for example) and Geographic data in a GIS (ArcGIS Utility Network ). Keeping this type of data up to date and in sync is a challenge for many organizations, leading to duplicating data and creating a bulk of extra attributes and data to keep everything in sync. Using FME, it is possible to synchronize Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) data with the ArcGIS Utility Network in real time. Changes (creation, modification, deletion) in ArcGIS Pro are relayed to EAM via FME, and vice versa. This ensures continuous synchronization of both systems without daily bulk updates, minimizes risks, and seamlessly integrates with ArcGIS Utility Network services. This presentation focuses on the use of FME at a Dutch water company, to create a sync between the asset management and GIS.Oh, the Possibilities - Balancing Innovation and Risk with Generative AI.pdf
