Next up we have the crazy and always hilarious Paul McCarty. Paul will he presenting "Repo Swatting: How to delete anyone's source code repository anonymously". Paul will discuss a new attack called Repo Swatting identified in major SCM providers including GitHub, GitLab, and Gitea. He identified the attack and theorized that it could be weaponized to take developer resources offline. He was correct. Swatting is a terrible practice as it allows malicious attackers to target unsuspecting, innocent people by using law enforcement as a directed weapon. Join Paul to learn more about this attach and how he found it. https://lnkd.in/gqPDu9Ca #BSidesMelb2024

There has been a lot of hype around the Rust programming language. Most articles and blogs I read are heavy on promises, and a little light on testing. I’ve done a simple comparison between a lambda written in Python vs the same lambda written in Rust. Both use the official AWS SDKs. Boto3 is well established but the Rust SDK is new. The official release was about 8 months ago at reinvent. I’ve load tested both using K6. Why? Well, because I want to see for myself if I really do get the 8x improvement in performance and equivalent reduction in cost that people promote. What were the results? Come along and find out! https://lnkd.in/gfzVfDXY

ASP.NET developers - want to integrate C# SDK generation into your MSBuild pipeline? For example - you have an ASP.NET core app, with NSwag generating your OpenAPI spec on every build. You can also have liblab generate a C# SDK on every build as well by adding it to your MSBuild targets. This post from Jim Bennett shows you how! #aspnet #aspnetcore #dotnet #sdk #api #msbuild https://lnkd.in/g6G4QzPi

I discover new method of file sharing, but it has become paid. It is by using the NZB files, NZB search index is paid, Meaning you have to pay a vendor for searching NZB files Also you have to buy service for using server to transfer the media. https://lnkd.in/dvWS3nbb But it is fast method and longer retention of content is assured. You can store and download content upto terabytes , depending on how much you can pay. It is not very costly. In early days these may have been free. Also , while torrents can be blocked by ISP, This method cannot be blocked , at it is probably smaller text files that are combined to form and complete binary file.

If you haven't use App Runner before, I've found it to be a great tool for hosting a Docker container. This is a simplistic version of deploying one with an added bonus of using CodeBuild so it's easy to integrate with GitHub actions. https://lnkd.in/gw_r4qeZ
