What the Heck Are OAuth and OIDC?

Session abstract

OAuth is not an API or a service: it is an open standard for authorization, any developer can implement it, and applications can use it to provide client applications with “secure delegated access.” OAuth works over HTTPS and authorizes devices, APIs, servers, and applications with access tokens rather than credentials. OpenID Connect (OIDC), built on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol, enables clients to verify the identity of the user and obtain their basic profile information. This session covers how OAuth and OIDC work, when to use them, and frameworks/services that simplify authentication.

Benefiting from Java 9 Improvements

Session abstract

Mention Java 9, and everyone immediately thinks of modularization. Although that’s quite important, Java 9 contains many other improvements to the language and the JDK. This presentation dives into the language-level improvements and also the changes related to the Streams API and the functional style of programming. The objective of this session is to help developers make better use of Java 9 from the language, JDK, and functional programming point of view.

Enough java.lang.String to Hang Ourselves...

Session abstract

Is it better to write “” + 42 or Integer.toString(42)? How much memory can you save if you intern() all your strings? How can String Deduplication reduce your memory footprint, and what does it cost? And how much memory will Java 9 strings save in Bulgaria? What is the maximum length of a constant string? And a dynamic string? How much faster is the new StringBuilder().append(“Hello “).append(name).toString() than “Hello “ + name? What are intrinsics, and how do they relate to strings? Are strings really immutable? How can you efficiently create substrings? You’ll get answers to these and many more questions in this session.

Hacking and Hardening Java Web Applications Workshop

Session abstract

PLEASE NOTE: YOU MUST BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP (BYOL) TO PARTICIPATE IN THE HANDS-ON LABS.It seems like every day there is a new headline about a security breach in a major company’s web application. This hands-on workshop is designed to teach you how to identify and fix vulnerabilities in Java web applications. Using an existing web application, you will learn ways to scan and test for common vulnerabilities such as hijacking, injection, cross-site scripting, and cross-site forgery. You will learn best practices for logging, error handling, intrusion detection, authentication, and authorization. You will also learn how to improve security in your applications with existing libraries, frameworks, and techniques to patch and prevent vulnerabilities.*NOTE - Please download:- Virtual Box 64-bit -https://www.virtualbox.org(windows users please make sure you test virtual box ahead of time)- Kali Linux Varient Virtual Machine -https://s3.amazonaws.com

A Thousand Things You Always Wanted to Know About SSO but Never Dared Ask

Session abstract

How many times have you been in a meeting with a salesperson and started to sweat when you heard, “Yes, the system will be fully integrated with your SSO”? How many times have you searched on the internet forSSOand closed your browser after the second click? SAML, OAUth, ws-fed…which of these is the right protocol? Shibboleth, OpenAM, ADFS2, Keycloak…do I need all of them? Do I need them at all? Which is the right solution for my application? How can I protect my APIs? This session covers the most-popular SSO scenarios and will guide you along the sometimes obscure path to the “log in once and access everything” Grail.

Fully Reactive: Spring, Kotlin, JavaFX, and MongoDB Playing Together

Session abstract

Spring Framework 5 brings full reactive support to developers everywhere. What better way to demo reactive programming than to actually build something live? This session’s presenters perform a daring feat of pair programming/dueling coding to create an end-to-end application by using Spring Framework 5, Spring Boot, Reactor, Kotlin, JavaFX, REST, and MongoDB, all built with IntelliJ IDEA. What could possibly go wrong?

One VM to Rule Them All? Lessons Learned with Truffle and Graal

Session abstract

Goldman Sachs has an in-house programming language used for its critical pricing and risk applications. This session’s speakers share their experiences of using Truffle and Graal as they headed along the path to turn it into a JVM language. They showcase some of the complexities of a complex dynamic type system, interfacing with C native functions, and trying to evolve an existing system with 150 million lines of code.
