Technical Certification

## Details Welcome to the DevSecOps London Gathering March Event on Wednesday 26 March. We bring you two amazing talks, as well as the usual conversations, pizza and beer! 📍 **Hosted at Autogen AI, Pentonville Road, London** 📅 **Wednesday, 26 March** 🕕 **6:00–8:00 PM** ## Talk 1 **Abstract:** Software supply chain attacks are no longer rare or theoretical. They are happening every day. Recent ​ incidents show how easily malicious packages can enter trusted registries and make their way into production systems before anyone notices. Today’s package managers host millions of components and support billions of downloads each week. That scale enables modern software development, but it also creates an enormous attack surface. Typosquatting, dependency confusion, malicious install scripts, and credential harvesting are no longer unusual techniques. They are now common and repeatable attack patterns. This session looks at how these attacks are playing out. Using malicious code detection data from Veracode, we walk-through real-world supply chain attack campaigns, the techniques attackers use, and the indicators that separate legitimate open-source packages from malicious ones. Attendees will see how weaponized components are identified, sometimes before they reach production and sometimes after damage has already begun. The talk also draws on industry research, including findings from the Veracode State of Software Security report, to put hard numbers behind the risk introduced by open-source dependencies and transitive trust. The session concludes with practical guidance for reducing exposure without slowing development. Topics include dependency controls, CI CD enforcement, malicious code detection, and continuous monitoring approaches that fit modern engineering workflows. ## Talk 2 **Abstract** [The National Archives](https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ "https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/") is the official archive and publisher for the UK Government. Our records include physical records such as the Domesday Book and Magna Carta, along with digital records from UK Government departments, Enquiries, and other public bodies, held both on premise and in public cloud. It's vitally important to protect our digital records from accidental deletion and the increasing threat of ransomware. We therefore initiated a programme to implement immutable cloud backups using the AWS Backup service within a central, segregated AWS account. In this talk, we'll share our learnings from this programme of work, including: * why AWS Backup compliance mode vault locks are not always truly immutable * which KMS key types should be selected to support backup and restore to a central vault * the importance of Logically Air Gapped (LAG) vaults * how each AWS service has implemented backups differently * which widely used AWS database option doesn't support centralised backup * cost considerations for setting up backup plans We soon learnt that it's not just a case of "Turn on AWS Backup". To deploy a centralised solution, we needed to: * configure centralised AWS Backup vaults and vault policies * deploy components to workload accounts, including Backup vaults, EventBridge, IAM roles * select the appropriate vault type depending on AWS resource type We decided to implement our solution as an open-source, public Terraform Module which deploys immutable AWS Backups across an AWS Organization, to handle this complexity, and simplify onboarding new accounts and resources to be backed up. You'll come away with an increased understanding of AWS Backup, an appreciation of its complexity and limitations, and the opportunity to greatly simplify deployment of truly immutable backups across your AWS accounts, using our public Terraform module.

# Beginners Hands-On Workshop: Breaking Down OpenClaw: From Minimal Installation Mode to Full-Featured Installation Mode w/ Your Own Custom Skills & More... **Registration to this event is only valid through the Luma platform:** [https://luma.com/it7a6h53?utm_source=meetup-dot-com](https://luma.com/it7a6h53?utm_source=meetup-dot-com) Hello code campers! Since **OpenClaw**, both as a project and as a tech movement, is growing, and since there is so much happening in this space, we've decided to dedicate the next **FreeCodeCamp \| AI** almost entirely to **OpenClaw,** especially following the success of the previous event. This is quite relevant since AI is moving soooo fast nowadays, making everyone scratch their heads confused while making some feel overwhelmed or have a small sensation of AI news fatigue. We will try to break down what this whole project is all about and whether or not all the hyperbolic statements about what this system can do are true. The aim for this workshop is to go through the setup process (it will hopefully take less time compared to last time because the maintainers of this project are constantly improving things), focusing on how to install the agent not only locally (virtualised, of course) but also in the cloud. We will probably look at AWS and GCP with the caveat: if you have your own server, which we encourage you to look into, the same will apply. This will be our **6th** event in our series of **local-first, open-source** AI events; therefore, we will try to focus on building a setup that doesn't depend on Big Tech but on smaller open-source tech instead. People who already have OpenClaw installed will be guided to customise it to use local LLMs or at least privacy-first cloud-based AI systems (that is because an individual's private ideas and personal project are their personal moat). At the end, we will be looking at what **SKILLS** are in the context of agents, how to build them, and if we have time, we will look at use cases for OpenClaw or, alternatively, look at emerging open-source AI agent toolkits like Pi. This workshop is open to all levels, from beginners to experts. Bring your laptop (make sure it's fully charged as local LLMs tend to be power-hungry), and don't forget to bring your coding gear (hoodie). This workshop will be accompanied by a guest speaker (full details TBA). *** ## Prerequisite First and foremost**, VERY IMPORTANT**, a VM (Virtual Machine) system like Docker/UTM for MacOs or WSL for Windows. Lastly, a local install of Ollama / LMStudio (but if you don't have any of that, don't worry, come a bit early and we will help set you up). If you want to take a quick look at the slides from the previous events fell free to do so: [https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-01/](https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-01/) (Ollama); [https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-02/](https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-02/) (LangFlow, not really related but still) [https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-03/](https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-03/) (private RAG w/ Anything LLM) [https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-04/](https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-04/) (AI-native browsers) [https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-05/](https://andysign.github.io/ai-london-02/https://github.com/andysign/ai-london-05) (OpenClaw basics) *** ## Agenda for the evening (Subject to change) **18:00 - 18:30 Arrival and networking** Mingle with fellow developers over refreshments. **18:30 - 18:45 Introductions (What is Local-First?)** Intro and a bit of audience engagement **18:45 - 19:40 Workshop** ​Hands-on technical workshop (if you are non-technical it's OK, tag along). **19:45 - 20:15 Guest Speaker (TBA)** **20:15 - 21:00 Networking** **21:00 - Closing remarks and follow-up** **END:** Carry on the fun at a nearby pub which is right @ the corner. *** ## Event Venue We'd like to extend a heartfelt thank you to **Encode Club**.

Hi Architects, Welcome to our the second AWS London Well-Architected User Group Meetup!!! 🥳🥳🥳 Due to the huge demand we saw for our inaugural meetup we have gone bigger with a new venue. Dragon Hall Trust, 17 Stukeley Street, London WC2B 5LT The AWS London Well-Architected Meetup is the latest chapter in the most popular AWS Meetup group globally. At each meetup we cover off various pillars of AWS best-practice in detail including insights from industry leaders that specialise in the Well-Architected Framework. We'll be announcing more speakers and topics over the coming weeks. **Speakers** * **The Philosophy Behind Well-Architected** **Philip Fitzsimons (Fitz)** \- Ex\-AWS \- Co\-authored the AWS Well\-Architected Framework\. The Well-Architected Framework started at AWS but has since been adopted by every major cloud vendor and beyond. Why did it resonate so widely? In this session, Fitz, who led the Well-Architected initiative at AWS from the beginning, explores the philosophy behind the framework, how it was intended to shape architectural thinking, and the mistakes teams commonly make when applying it. Drawing on lessons from seeing thousands of real architectures, he will explain how to approach Well-Architected reviews in a way that actually improves systems rather than just generating checklists. * **Running your first Well-Architected Review: A Live Walkthrough** **James Harding** \- Technical CSM \- Green Custard Curious about how a Well-Architected Review works in practice? In this session we'll run a live walkthrough using the AWS Well-Architected Tool, showing how to define a workload, answer the review questions, identify High Risk Issues and move on to an actionable improvement plan. * **Building Your Infrastructure: "Self-Hosted vs. Managed"** **Mykola Boiko -** Backend Developer - Ultralytics What does it really cost to build and operate your own infrastructure? Mykola Boiko shares real-world lessons from scaling a globally distributed AI platform using self-hosted infrastructure before gradually migrating services to AWS. Through stories of building replication, caching, observability, and multi-region reliability from scratch, the session reveals the hidden operational complexity and costs behind running everything yourself. The journey highlights key principles of the AWS Well-Architected Framework including Reliability, Performance Efficiency, Operational Excellence, and Cost Optimisation and shows why managed cloud services can dramatically reduce operational burden while improving scalability and resilience. More speakers to be announced soon. So come join us at 7pm for a 7.30pm start, including drinks, snacks and friendly networking after our talks :-) \*\*\*NB: No entry to the building after 7.30pm.\*\*\*

**About the London Software Guild** ​The London Software Guild gathers developers, architects, and teams across London who care deeply about the craft of building great software. No fluff, no vendor pitches — just people who take the work seriously, sharing what they've learned the hard way. *** ## ​**Tonight's Speakers** ## ​**🎤 Kieran — Founding Engineer, Demand-Genius** ​Kieran is a founding engineer at Demand-Genius, working to close the gap between how humans and machines perceive your brand versus reality. Background in electrical & electronic engineering, previously working on real-time payments systems, high-scale distributed dynamic rules engines, and reverse proxies. Third Start-Up/Scale-Up (because I'm dumb and have never learnt my lesson). ​ **Talk: The Statistical (Un)Certainty That Our AI Co-Founder Ruins Everything** ​We have handed the most powerful text prediction machines ever built the keys to our codebases. They write code that is statistically likely to be correct. But "statistically likely" and "correct" are not the same thing. As we move toward autonomous multi-agent systems writing production code at machine speed, that gap becomes the central engineering problem of our time. ​Code is not text. It is a formal, deterministic, mathematical structure that happens to be serialised as text. Every tool in the agentic coding stack — retrieval, editing, version control, coordination — treats it as text. ​This talk argues that the answer isn't better frontier models. It's better systems around models. Specifically, the engineering disciplines we've used for a century to control uncertain systems — feedback loops, formal verification, dependency analysis, and control theory — are the missing layer between "AI can write code" and "AI can write code you can trust." *** ## ​**🎤 Andy Roberts — Senior Engineering Leader** ​Andy Roberts is a senior engineering leader with 25+ years of experience — the kind where you've actually written the code, run the teams, and been in the room when things went wrong at scale. Previously Head of EMEA Enterprise Solutions at Apollo GraphQL, where he helped companies like [Booking.com](https://booking.com/), PayPal, and The New York Times stop arguing about their APIs. Before that, Head of API Engineering at RS Components, wrangling 11 teams. Has strong opinions about federated architecture and isn't afraid to use them. ​ **Talk: Built for Browsers, Billed by Tokens** *Your microservices solved for latency. AI agents are solving for context. Nobody told your APIs.* ​Every era of software development has been defined by a constraint that reshaped architecture. In the database era we optimised for round trips. In the web era we obsessed over latency. Mobile forced us to think about bandwidth and battery. Each shift required new instincts, new patterns, new defaults. We're in the middle of another one. ​The AI era introduces a new constraint: context. Language models have finite working memory, and every API response your services return goes into it. The kitchen-sink response payloads that work fine for browsers are quietly making your AI agents more expensive and less capable — and the cost is almost entirely invisible in your existing dashboards. ​This talk maps the constraint transition from latency to context, shows what it means for the microservice APIs you have today, and offers five concrete things you can do about it without touching a line of existing backend code.

They do have packets of nuts and things.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is the gold standard for grounding LLMs in proprietary enterprise data. However, the journey from a flashy proof-of-concept to a reliable, secure production system is fraught with complexity. This talk bridges the gap between rapid prototyping and rigorous engineering. We will begin by exploring the actual merit of “vibe-coding”—using AI-assisted, rapid prototyping to build compelling demo apps that secure client buy-in and validate use cases. Once the demo is sold, the real work begins. We will navigate the architectural decision matrix, comparing the trade-offs of off-the-shelf products, cloud-managed services, and fully custom-built RAG solutions. Diving into the technical pipeline, we will cover modern ingestion strategies like agentic chunking and sophisticated retrieval methods, including re-ranking and GraphRAG, to overcome the limitations of simple vector search. We will detail the essential role of telemetry and LLM-as-a-Judge evaluation frameworks in ensuring sustained performance, faithfulness, and relevancy. Join us to learn how to transition from impressive demos to robust solutions that deliver measurable business value. Our Speaker, **[Dr. Enrico Fonda](https://www.linkedin.com/in/enricofonda/)** is a data scientist with a background in physics. He conducted postdoctoral research at the University of Maryland and New York University, where he studied quantum fluids and applied deep learning to turbulence.

Please join us for our next Bioinformatics London meetup, where we welcome **Francisco Azuaje**, Director of Bioinformatics and AI at **Genomics England**, for a talk on what it really takes to turn powerful models and rich datasets into safe, trustworthy impact in the clinic. **Francisco Azuaje** is Director of Bioinformatics at **Genomics England**, where he leads applied ML and GenAI across national-scale genomic and clinical datasets. With 25+ years across academia, public sector and pharma (including UCB and the Luxembourg Institute of Health), his work focuses on what actually works in AI for bioinformatics: moving from proof-of-concept to robust, governed systems that clinicians and patients can trust. In this talk, he will discuss real-world lessons from deploying AI in genomics pipelines and health data platforms, touching on verification, safety, organisational friction, and why the hard problems now are as much social and operational as they are technical. Approximate schedule: * 18:30 – Doors open * 18:45 – Chitchat, announcements * 19:00 – Talk and Q&A * 19:45 – End, then adjourn to a nearby pub for informal discussion Please **RSVP at least the day before** so we can provide an attendee list to reception. Make sure your Meetup name looks like a real name (e.g. “J Smith” or “Jane Jones”, not “weaselstabber”) so University of Westminster reception can identify you. We look forward to seeing you there for an honest discussion about what it takes to make AI and genomics work *for* real patients, not just in demos.

Hey everyone, Join us for our **next AI Security meetup on March 26th**, once again at the Snyk offices in central London, featuring 2 new talks. And as always, there’ll be drinks, pizzas, and a great crowd — so expect a fun evening as well. **Don't forget to RSVP now!** **Talk 1 - Securing AI with AI: Building a Security Gate for Production Agents** In production, any input could be malicious. This talk covers how my team built a security validation layer for an AI agent at Snyk. I’ll walk through the attack categories we defend against (prompt injection, system manipulation, data exfiltration, role-play bypasses), and the unexpected challenges that come with securing an agent that's purpose-built for security workflows. Speaker: Jada Ross - AI Systems Engineer at Snyk. Jada is an AI Systems Engineer at Snyk, building production AI systems that help teams move faster and smarter. She's shipped RAG pipelines, LangGraph agents, and knowledge systems, embedded her work across engineering, go-to-market, support, and strategy teams at Snyk. **Talk 2 - From Bias to Trust: A Day in the Life of a Responsible AI Product** Building "Responsible AI" is often seen as a compliance hurdle, but for a business to scale, it must be the foundation of the architecture. In this session, we follow the end-to-end journey of a single AI use case—from the boardroom to the server room. We will explore how different roles—Business Owners, Data Scientists, Architects, and Delivery Leads—can identify and mitigate ethical risks at every stage of the lifecycle. You’ll walk away with a practical "Day 1" checklist to ensure your AI is not just powerful, but trustworthy. Speaker: Gayatri Pandey is a Strategic Product Manager with over 13 years of experience in the technology sector. She specializes in bridging the gap between deep technical engineering and high-level business strategy. Gayatri’s expertise is backed by the **AI for Business Leaders program at MIT**, the **Artificial Intelligence program at Oxford**, and a **12-week intensive Applied Data Science bootcamp**. With a foundational background as a **Data Engineer**—where she personally deployed ML models to servers—she brings a unique, "full-stack" perspective to the challenges of scaling responsible and ethical AI systems.

MCKS PRANIC HEALING® Level I In PRANIC HEALING® Level 1, you learn the basics of working with your energy aura, including learning to "scan," or feel the energy, to "sweep," or clean away congested energy, and to "energize," or supplement areas in your aura that have a pranic deficiency. PRANIC HEALING® has been taught to doctors, nurses, massage therapists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, shiatsu practitioners, and many others in the healing field. It has allowed them to heal confidently and consistently in the shortest learning time possible. These professionals find PRANIC HEALING® very effective and easy to apply. Other topics covered in PRANIC HEALING® Level 1: Energetic anatomy: You will learn to work with the network of chakras, meridians and auras to accelerate the healing processes of your body. Preventive healing: You will learn to remove the negative energetic patterns of a disease to prevent it from fully manifesting as a physical ailment. Self-Pranic healing: You will learn to apply these healing techniques to accelerate your own healing. Step-by-step techniques for ailments related to your: respiratory system, e.g., asthma,; circulatory system, e.g., heart ailments; gastrointestinal system, e.g., irritable bowel syndrome; musculoskeletal system, e.g., arthritis and back pain; reproductive system, e.g., menstrual problems. You'll also learn how to address common problems as migraines and sinusitis. Additionally, you'll learn to apply distant healing to loved ones who are not present in the room with you. All PRANIC HEALING® courses are "experiential," which means that you learn by actually performing the techniques and exercises in class - on yourself and those around you. During class, all the principles will be explained thoroughly and you will practice the techniques exhaustively so you will be confident in your ability to produce positive results when you finish the course. This is Day 2 of 2 Attendance at day one is required to attend day 2. The Course text book is Choa Kok Sui, "Miracles through Pranic Healing" Please bring this with you to class. PRANIC HEALING® Level 1 is a prerequisite to all other GMCKS courses. For those interested to review the class...Review fee is only $75!! LOOK AT THIS!! Review for FREE when you bring a new student to class with you.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
