===Technology 1=== | ===Technology 1: Automating Security Scanning with OWASP ZAP=== | ||
* Presenter: [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/psiinon/ Simon Bennetts] | |||
* Description: | |||
<BLOCKQUOTE> The Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is an OWASP Flagship project and one of the world’s most popular and best maintained free & open source security tools. It can help you automatically find security vulnerabilities in your web applications while you are developing and testing your applications. | |||
In this talk Simon will give a quick introduction to ZAP and then will focus on automation and embedding ZAP in continuous integration / delivery pipelines. He will explain the different ways of automating ZAP, how we are using ZAP in Cloud Security and then dive into the ZAP API which gives full control over the ZAP functionality. | |||
===Technology 3=== | This talk is suitable for anyone interested in security automation, including developers, QA and security people.</BLOCKQUOTE> | ||
===Technology 2: Project Deep Speech=== | |||
* Presenter: [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/kdavis/ Kelly Davis] | |||
* Description: | |||
<BLOCKQUOTE> In the last ten years Deep Learning has revolutionized numerous fields: natural language processing, image classification, automatic translation... The list grows longer each day. Speech recognition has also been placed under its spell. DeepSpeech, the subject of my talk, is set to be part of this revolution in speech recognition. | |||
DeepSpeech is an open source speech recognition engine Mozilla is working on. It is based off of Baidu’s research[arXiv:1412.5567v2] and uses the TensorFlow[arXiv:1605.08695v2] machine learning framework. It’s currently in early development.

===Technology 3: Augmented Reality Research @ Mozilla=== | |||
* Presenters: Blaire MacIntyre and [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/swhite/ Sean White] | |||
* From Pokemon Go to Microsoft Hololens, we expect Augmented Reality to have significant impact on the future of the web. We'd like to use this session as an opportunity to discuss early research directions, demonstrate some early ideas, and gather thoughts from around Mozilla about potential aspects of AR that we should explore and develop. | |||
===Technology 4: Not just blockchains in VR: what should interest the Emerging Technologies group?=== | |||
* Presenter: [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/swhite/ Sean White] | |||
* Description: | |||
<BLOCKQUOTE>The Internet is a big and busy place. There are many things we *could* be working on. Where to start? | |||
We need a reference on the top technology trends and market forces occurring now and in the expected future, together with a point of view on what Mozilla thinks about the trends and what we should do about it. | |||
Join us as we review the process for identifying new areas, gaining common understanding, creating hypotheses and sharing those across the organisation with rough consensus and to motivate action. | |||
You will learn how to engage with shaping the agenda of which emerging technologies Mozilla should be investing in. | |||
Futurists, technologists, kremlinologists are all welcome: anyone with a passion for the technological future of the organization.</BLOCKQUOTE> | |||
