Sign up on Eventbrite for Location, London, Reino Unido

This is a placeholder for the event which is being run on Eventbrite. See the full details and register here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-anatomy-of-java-vulnerabilities-tickets-43594508348 Join the LJC for an evening of talks this March. In our first talk, Steve Poole will cover all aspects of Java Vulnerabilities. With the rise of cybercrime you must know how to defend your code. With examples & code this talk will help you be more effective in reducing security issues in Java. Java is everywhere. According to Oracle it’s on 3 billion devices and counting. We also know that Java is one of the most popular vehicles for delivering malware. But that’s just the plugin right? Well maybe not. Java on the server can be just at risk as the client. In this talk we’ll cover all aspects of Java Vulnerabilities. We’ll explain why Java has this dubious reputation, what’s being done to address the issues and what you have to do to reduce your exposure. You’ll learn about Java vulnerabilities in general: how they are reported, managed and fixed as well as learning about the specifics of attack vectors and just what a ‘vulnerability’ actually is. With the continuing increase in cybercrime it’s time you knew how to defend your code. With examples and code this talk will help you become more effective in reducing security issues in Java. Steve Poole is a Developer Advocate and long time IBM Java developer, leader and evangelist who has been working on IBM Java SDKs and JVMs since Java was less than 1. He's a member of the Adopt OpenJDK group championing community involvement in OpenJDK and a seasoned speaker and regular presenter at JavaOne and other conferences on technical and software engineering topics. In our second talk, Mo Haghighi will give an overview of various algorithmic techniques, concurrency and design patterns to optimise gateways’ operations. He will also describe real-world scenarios and modern applications of asynchronous and NIO operations, where Java is used for inter-gateway data aggregation and edge processing. IoT/M2M gateways are often mains-powered multi-radio devices used in IoT infrastructure. IoT gateways are primarily used to capture data from multiple sensor devices and relay them to cloud services. What makes IoT gateways interesting and often challenging, is the fact that data streams from multiple radio transceivers (BLE,[masked], LoRa, WiFi or etc) need to be received and processed simultaneously. Many IoT/M2M gateways, whether based on Intel x86 or ARM architecture, are often Linux-based (i.e. Yocto) and support Java SE. In addition to open source process engines, such as Eclipse Kura and IBM node-RED, Java SE can be used to facilitates many I/O, messaging, storage and data processing in IoT gateways. Dr Mo Haghighi is the head of developer ecosystems group at IBM, former research scientist at Intel and former software developer at Sun Microsystems. Mo is a Java enthusiast, who has several publications and patents in IoT, ML, embedded and distributed systems. He has also been a long-time speaker at Java One and IEEE conferences.
