Software does not expire, but it “rots”. Its quality degrades over time. As you build your project and add features, you probably won’t always build it in a clean, orderly and mindful way. Especially if you have a tight deadline. So aside from features, you also produce bugs, code smells, and technical debt. That “rots” your software, but your job as a software engineer is to maintain its “freshness” while building on top of it.

Today’s phishing campaigns use sophisticated social engineering techniques and the latest AI advances with devastating effectiveness, tricking your most valuable users out of sensitive information, network access and personal credentials.

incident.io Catalog hands on lab

The incident.io Catalog is a connected, navigable, map of "things" that exist in your organization. We can use it to describe an organization as a connected graph, and use that graph to drive powerful workflow automations during incidents. In this hands-on training session, we'll work through an example of building a catalog for a mock organization. We'll then use the catalog to solve some real business problems, including automated incident data attribution, and some realistic workflows which outline how it works and what it enables in the context of incident management.
