It then outlines the top 10 vulnerabilities according to OWASP: Injection, Broken Authentication and Session Management, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Insecure Direct Object References, Security Misconfiguration, Sensitive Data Exposure, Missing Function Level Access Control, Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities, and Unvalidated Redirects and Forwards. The rest of the document demonstrates examples of these vulnerabilities on a vulnerable web application and provides guidance on how to test for and fix security issues.
DevSecCon Singapore 2018 - Pushing left like a boss by Tanya JancaDevSecCon
- The document discusses "pushing left" in application security, which means involving security teams earlier in the software development lifecycle from requirements through testing.
- It outlines the key elements of an application security program including vulnerability assessments, threat modeling, code reviews, penetration testing, secure coding practices, and bug bounty programs.
- It provides advice for individuals to push left in their own work by testing their own code using a web proxy, conducting threat modeling, reviewing code for security issues, and training themselves in secure coding best practices.
This document discusses the importance of continuous security testing throughout the development process. It recommends adopting a security test pyramid approach similar to testing principles like test-driven development. Responsibility for security testing should be shared between developers, testers, and external communities. The document reviews some recent security breaches like Cross-Site Scripting attacks on eBay and data leaks from Cloudbleed, noting vulnerabilities that allowed these threats were not caught earlier. Various tools for security testing like dependency checks, static analysis, and OWASP ZAP are presented, along with caveats to keep in mind regarding tools. The key takeaways are to incorporate security testing into all phases of development and think like an attacker when testing.
Open source software is widely used but faces security challenges as vulnerabilities have been found in widely used open source components. While most companies do not currently monitor open source code for security issues, the open source community is adapting to improve security. New approaches for security processes and tools are emerging and will provide increased choices for addressing open source security over time.
This presentation discusses software quality and security. It provides an overview of common vulnerabilities in websites, demonstrating vulnerability scanning tools. Key points include that nearly 11,000 attack sites and 150,000 infected sites are discovered monthly. After scanning a site, the presenter will analyze the lengthy report generated to identify true vulnerabilities and prioritize fixes. The presentation emphasizes that web security depends on the entire ecosystem and encourages continuing to learn more about the topic.
With exponential growth of internet usage and impact it has for our lives nowadays the importance of security becomes extremely more and more valuable, especially if we take into account number of users with closed to zero experience in IT and with limited knowledge in security.
That means we’re as engineers who create modern applications should take responsibility to make them more robust and secure.
In this talk I’m going to explore security topic for broader developers audience and share simple but yet useful strategies, tactics and techniques to help to make applications we create more secure.

New Era of Software with modern Application Security (v0.6)Dinis Cruz
Description: This presentation will start with an overview of the current state of Application Insecurity (with practical examples). This will make the attendees think twice about what is about to happen to their applications. The solution is to leverage a new generation of application security thinking such as: TDD, Docker, Test Automation, Static Analysis, cleaver Fuzzing, JIRA Risk workflows, Kanban, micro web services visualization, and ELK. These practices will not only make applications/software more secure/resilient, but it allow them to be developed in a much more efficient, cheaper and productive way.

Find out what testing works for your mobile app.
Agile Software Development means we want to maximise progress while minimising waste. Delays cause waste, for instance wasted time and efforts; ineffective work causes waste; poor quality causes waste; and bugs cause waste and delay progress, etc.
Mobile apps and the mobile app ecosystem help determine what sorts of testing will be more valuable for the project. This workshop introduces various key concepts and factors related to testing mobile apps effectively. You will have the opportunity to practice testing mobile apps during the workshop to help reinforce your learning and discovery.
We will cover both interactive and automated testing of mobile apps, and find ways to reduce the Time To Useful Feedback (TTUF) so the project team can make more progress while reducing project waste. We will also cover various ways to gather more and better information about the qualities of our mobile codebase and of the quality of the apps-in-use.

Continuous, Evolutionary and Large-Scale: A New Perspective for Automated Mob...Kevin Moran
Mobile app development involves a unique set of challenges including device fragmentation and rapidly evolving platforms, making testing a difficult task. The design space for a comprehensive mobile testing strategy includes features, inputs, potential contextual app states, and large combinations of devices and underlying platforms. Therefore, automated testing is an essential activity of the development process. However, current state of the art of automated testing tools for mobile apps posses limitations that has driven a preference for manual testing in practice. As of today, there is no comprehensive automated solution for mobile testing that overcomes fundamental issues such as automated oracles, history awareness in test cases, or automated evolution of test cases.
In this perspective paper we survey the current state of the art in terms of the frameworks, tools, and services available to developers to aid in mobile testing, highlighting present shortcom- ings. Next, we provide commentary on current key challenges that restrict the possibility of a comprehensive, effective, and practical automated testing solution. Finally, we offer our vision of a comprehensive mobile app testing framework, complete with research agenda, that is succinctly summarized along three principles: Continuous, Evolutionary and Large-scale (CEL).
The document discusses penetration testing, which involves evaluating systems and applications to identify vulnerabilities from an unauthorized user's perspective. It describes why companies perform penetration tests, such as to comply with regulations and prevent data breaches. It outlines the skills needed like technical abilities in operating systems, networking, and applications as well as offensive and defensive security knowledge. Common tools used in penetration tests are also listed.
