IT infrastructure & microservices authentication

Mestrado IPB-ESTGBIOma - Integrated solutions in BIOeconomy for the Mobilization of the Agrifood chain project is structured in 6 PPS (Products, Processes, and Services) out of which, a part of PPS2 is covered in this work. This work resulted in the second deliverable of PPS2 which is defined as PPS2.A1.E2 - IT infrastructure design and graphical interface conceptual design. BIOma project is in the early stage and this deliverable is a design task of the project. For defining the system architecture, requirements, UML diagrams, physical architecture, and logical architecture have been proposed. The system architecture is based on microservices due to its advantages like scalability and maintainability for bigger projects like BIOma where several sensors are used for big data analysis. Special attention has been devoted to the research and study for the authentication and authorization of users and devices in a microservices architecture. The proposed authentication solution is a result of research made for microservices authentication where it was concluded that using a separate microservice for user authentication is the best solution. FIWARE is an open-source initiative defining a universal set of standards for context data management that facilitates the development of Smart solutions for different domains like Smart Cities, Smart Industry, Smart Agrifood, and Smart Energy. FIWARE’s PEP (Policy Enforcement Point) proxy solution has been proposed in this work for the better management of user’s identities, and client-side certificates have been proposed for authentication of IoT (Internet of Things) devices. The communication between microservices is done through AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol), and between IoT devices and microservices is done through MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) protocol

A Visual {DSL} for the certification of open source software

Quality assessment of open source software is becoming an important and active research area. One of the reasons for this recent interest is the consequence of Internet popularity. Nowadays, programming also involves looking for the large set of open source libraries and tools that may be reused when developing our software applications. In order to reuse such open source software artifacts, programmers not only need the guarantee that the reused artifact is certified, but also that independently developed artifacts can be easily combined into a coherent piece of software. In this paper we improve over previous works and describe a visual language that allows programmers to graphically describe how software artifacts can be combined into powerful software certification processes. This paper introduces the visual language and describes how its elements are available to the user through an intuitive interface.(undefined

Do Certifications Matter? The Impact of the Great Place to Work Certified Label on Consumers´ Product Perceptions

Dissertation presented as the partial requirement for obtaining a Master's degree in Information Management, specialization in Marketing IntelligenceCompanies are increasingly understanding the positive impacts in the consumer’s mindsets related to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives, actions that can be correlated to more ethical and sustainable ways to conduct business. Some practical benefits of these disciplines are on the enhancement of employer branding perceptions, turning it into a relevant and strategical business component that is requiring more attention for this context in the last years. The expected results want to provide more insights able to show how a high level of employee engagement and advertising these related recognitions are perceived or not by the consumers, and if they can directly associate with a better quality of products. Every year, over six thousand companies in sixty countries, representing more than ten million employees, invest time and resources to use methodologies like as provided by Great Place to Work®, to identify their employee experience and improve the key drivers of engagement. Based on this context this paper seeks to investigate if there are any positive impacts of being certified as a great workplace on a brand’s reputation, by identifying consumers’ preferences and purchasing intentions in an experimental test comparing different product packages. The study used an experimental design with two conditions: a product’s package with versus without the Great Place to Work® label. We formulated questions that measured on a scale from 1 to 9, the degree of importance or agreement given to the proposed questions or statements. We recruited 240 people living in the United States of America. 135 were male (56,25%) and 105 female (43,75%), 14 of these individuals had 18 – 24 years (5,83%), 103 individuals 25 – 34 years (42,92%), 74 individuals 35 – 44 years (30,83%), 26 individuals 45 – 54 years (10,83%), and 23 individuals had 55 – 75 years (9,58%). As a result, the exploratory analysis underscores a significant correlation between the overall perception of the product and the quality of a specific group. Despite that, we found no statistically significant correlation between the presence of a Great Place to Work® certified company label on the chocolate package and the overall value of the product. The presence of this specific label also was not statistically associated with the price people were willing to pay or the possible taste of the chocolate. In conclusion, our study shows that the perception of quality only impacted individuals above 35 years old who ate chocolate often. Indeed, the use of credible labels allows firms to signal quality, and in so doing to create the potential for a premium positioning based on this signal

An Examination of Computer Forensics and Related Certifications In The Accounting Curriculum

Forensic accounting has been a fast-growing niche area within the accounting field for many years. While there has been dramatic growth in the number of courses and degrees in forensic accounting offered by universities, certain relevant topics receive little coverage, such as computer forensics. The purpose of this paper is to examine the views of accounting academics and practitioners pertaining to integrating computer forensics in the accounting curriculum, as well as to determine which forensic accounting certifications the respondents hold. Differences in opinions between the two groups are discussed, along with recommendations on how to improve the forensic accounting curriculum pertaining to computer forensics education
