Not All Flaws Are Created Equal: The Difference Between a Flaw, a Vulnerabil...DevOps.com
According to Gartner, the application layer contains 90% of all vulnerabilities. However, do security experts and developers know what’s happening underneath the application layer? Organizations are aware they cannot afford to let potential system flaws or weaknesses in applications be exploited, but knowing the distinctions between these weaknesses can make all the difference in removing them successfully.
During this webinar, Jim Jastrzebski of CA Veracode will discuss how to identify risk factors within your application landscape and share his approach to helping security and development teams address them efficiently. Learn about the methods and solutions attackers typically rely on to perform application vulnerability discovery and compromise, and hear how organizations rely on application security technology and services to gain visibility into their overall landscape—and act upon it in the right way.

Software development is moving much faster than application security with new platforms, languages, frameworks, paradigms, and methodologies like Agile and Devops.
Unfortunately, software assurance hasn't kept up with the times. For the most part, our security techniques were built to work with the way software was built in 2002. Here are some of the technologies and practices that today's best software assurance techniques *can't*handle: JavaScript, Ajax, inversion of control, aspect-oriented programming, frameworks, libraries, SOAP, REST, web services, XML, JSON, raw sockets, HTML5, Agile, DevOps, WebSocket, Cloud, and more. All of these rest pretty much at the core of modern software development.
Although we're making progress in application security, the gains are much slower than the stunning advances in software development. After 10 years of getting further behind every day, software *assurance* is now largely incompatible with modern software *development*. It's not just security tools -- application security processes are largely incompatible as well. And the result is that security has very little influence on the software trajectory at all.
Unless the application security community figures out how to be a relevant part of software development, we will continue to lag behind and effect minimal change. In this talk, I will explore a radically different approach based on instrumenting an entire IT organization with passive sensors to collect realtime data that can be used to identify vulnerabilities, enhance security architecture, and (most importantly) enable application security to generate value. The goal is unprecedented real-time visibility into application security across an organization's entire application portfolio, allowing all the stakeholders in security to collaborate and finally become proactive.

Winning open source vulnerabilities without loosing your deveopers - Azure De...WhiteSource
Tsaela Pinto, Director of Knowledge R&D at WhiteSource, spoke at the Azure DevOps meetup in Tel Aviv about how develpers should part in maintaining open source security
CI/CD pipeline security from start to finish with WhiteSource & CircleCIWhiteSource
Open source software components play an important role by providing us with the building blocks of our products. However, even as we enjoy the benefits of open source components, they are not without their challenges, especially when it comes to security vulnerabilities.
In this webinar with Circle CI, you'll learn how:
- WhiteSource Orb can help teams catch vulnerabilities within open source components at early stages of the development cycle
- You can start implementing the WhiteSource CircleCI orb into your CI configuration
- To gain insights into your software helping you make smarter decisions in working with open source components.
One of the core tenets of what people consider to be “DevOps” is to shorten the feedback loop in your development cycles. This tenet ties in directly with Agile methodologies utilized by software engineering teams. With the advent of easily accessible cloud infrastructure, and with the various operational tooling around those new infrastructure providers reaching a new level of maturity, we are now seeing a world where “DevOps” is mainstream. For companies starting new product development initiatives, using some form of Configuration Management is now table stakes to iterate quickly. Continuous Integration. Continuous Deployment. But who (or what) is continually monitoring the state of your operational security? This is where SecDevOps, or SecOps, comes into play. The SecDevOps methodology allows you to improve your security monitoring and response time, while maintaining your ability to continually deploy changes.

DevSecOps Security Best Practices
How to integrate security in CI/CD pipeline
Talk to executives in IT divisions of large enterprises about security and invariably the conversation will hover around
DevSecOps pipeline.
Is DevSecOps the only thing you need to do for security in your IT division or is there more?
What impact does bringing in secure culture in an engineering context mean?
What handshake is needed between the IT function and the security / risk function for large enterprises?
How does this impact roles and responsibilities of a developer?
This talk is an attempt to answer questions such as these using a real world examples of transformations seen in Fortune 100 companies.
Java application security the hard way - a workshop for the serious developerSteve Poole
Cybercrime is rising at an alarming rate. As a Java developer you know you need to be better informed about security matters but it’s hard to know where to start. This workshop will help you understand how to improve the security of your application through a series of demonstration hacks and related hands on exercises. Serious though the topic is, this practical session will be fun and will leaving you more informed and better prepared. Start building your security memory muscle here
Erik Costlow, Product Evangelist at Contrast Security, was Oracle's principal product manager for Java 8 and 9, focused on security and performance. His security expertise involves threat modeling, code analysis, and instrumentation of security sensors. He is working to broaden this approach to security with Contrast Security. Before becoming involved in technology, Erik was a circus performer who juggled fire on a three-wheel vertical unicycle.
Discussion of how security is in crisis but DevSecOps offers a new playbook and gives security a path to influence. Taking a look at the WAF space, we look at how Signal Sciences has created feedback between Dev and Ops and Security to create new value.
At a time when some say users pose the biggest threat, new tools are emerging that give users more freedom than ever.
451 Analyst, Adrian Sanabria speaks on this bold new approach to application control in our latest webinar.
KEY TOPICS
1. Learn from the past: valuing User Experience, IT workload & business/IT relations.
2. Take off the training wheels: it’s possible to trust users to make the right choices, but still have options if they don”t.
3. Drop unreasonable goals: more restrictions ≠ more security.
40 DevSecOps Reference Architectures for you. See what tools your peers are using to scale DevSecOps and how enterprises are automating security into their DevOps pipeline. Learn what DevSecOps tools and integrations others are deploying in 2019 and where your choices stack up as you consider shifting security left.
An introduction to the devsecops webinar will be presented by me at 10.30am EST on 29th July,2018. It's a session focussed on high level overview of devsecops which will be followed by intermediate and advanced level sessions in future.
Agenda:
-DevSecOps Introduction
-Key Challenges, Recommendations
-DevSecOps Analysis
-DevSecOps Core Practices
-DevSecOps pipeline for Application & Infrastructure Security
-DevSecOps Security Tools Selection Tips
-DevSecOps Implementation Strategy
-DevSecOps Final Checklist
Thanks to the cloud and open source tools, DevOps teams have access to unprecedented infrastructure and scale. But that also means they can be approached by some of the most nefarious actors on the Internet, as they risk the security of their business with every application deployment. Perimeter-class security is no longer viable in such a distributed environment, so now companies need to adapt to more micro-level security. This merging of DevOps and security operations – a concept called DevSecOps – is one of the most important new developments in security and IT deployment. In this session, our expert will discuss how teams are now collaborating as peers to achieve optimal security.
Even though large breaches have hit headline news in years past, some companies are still on the fence about investing in cybersecurity. As a security practitioner (or jack of all trades) how can you be expected to cover your assets with zero budget? Thankfully, there are plenty of open-source tools out there that will allow you to secure your organization. Come join me as I discuss how you can track your network assets, perform vulnerability assessments, prevent attacks with intrusion prevention systems, and even deploy HIDS. We will also jump into finding sensitive data and PII in your network, as well as incident response tools and automation. All it costs is your time (and maybe a VM or two). You really can drastically improve the security posture of your network with little to no budget, and you’ll have fun doing it! OK, maybe it won’t be fun, but at least you’ll learn something, right?
Chaos engineering for cloud native securityKennedy
Human errors and misconfiguration-based vulnerabilities have become a major cause of data breaches and other forms of security attacks in cloud-native infrastructure (CNI). The dynamic and complex nature of CNI and the underlying distributed systems further complicate these challenges. Hence, novel security mechanisms are imperative to overcome these challenges. Such mechanisms must be customer-centric, continuous, not focused on traditional security paradigms like intrusion detection. We tackle these security challenges via Risk-driven Fault Injection (RDFI), a novel application of cyber security to chaos engineering. Chaos engineering concepts (e.g. Netflix’s Chaos Monkey) have become popular since they increase confidence in distributed systems by injecting non-malicious faults (essentially addressing availability concerns) via experimentation techniques. RDFI goes further by adopting security-focused approaches by injecting security faults that trigger security failures which impact on integrity, confidentiality, and availability. Safety measures are also employed such that impacted environments can be reversed to secure states. Therefore, RDFI improves security and resilience drastically, in a continuous and efficient manner and extends the benefts of chaos engineering to cyber security. We have researched and implemented a proof-of-concept for RDFI that targets multi-cloud enterprise environments deployed on AWS and Google cloud platform.
SHOWDOWN: Threat Stack vs. Red Hat AuditDThreat Stack
Traditionally, people have used the userland daemon ‘auditd’ built by some good Red Hat folks to collect and consume this data. However, there are a couple of problems with traditional open source auditd and auditd libraries that we’ve had to deal with ourselves, especially when trying to run it on performance sensitive systems and make sense of the sometimes obtuse data that traditional auditd spits out. To that effect, we’ve written a custom audit listener from the ground up for the Threat Stack agent (tsauditd).

The Anatomy of Java Vulnerabilities (Devoxx UK 2017)Steve Poole
Java is everywhere. According to Oracle it’s on 3 billion devices and counting. We also know that Java is one of the most popular vehicles for delivering malware. But that’s just the plugin right? Well maybe not. Java on the server can be just at risk as the client.
In this talk we’ll cover all aspects of Java Vulnerabilities. We’ll explain why Java has this dubious reputation, what’s being done to address the issues and what you have to do to reduce your exposure. You’ll learn about Java vulnerabilities in general: how they are reported, managed and fixed as well as learning about the specifics of attack vectors and just what a ‘vulnerability’ actually is. With the continuing increase in cybercrime it’s time you knew how to defend your code. With examples and code this talk will help you become more effective in tacking security issues in Java.

Microsoft Vulnerability Research - How to be a finder as a vendorJeremy Brown
You may think of Microsoft as a company that fixes vulnerabilities, but we frequently find security issues in other vendors’ products as well. Microsoft Vulnerability Research (MSVR) was created to help ensure that our company demonstrates the same behavior, in the role of a finder, that we’d like to see from other companies and researchers from all over the world. We make sure that our reports are complete and accurate and communicated securely and effectively to the right place. This presentation will cover how and why MSVR was created, an in-depth look at our operations and what we’ve learned so far with this program. We’ll also discuss how your company can have a centralized program to do the same. We’ll finish things off with a run through of an example vulnerability that one of our finders discovered, reported through MSVR, and what is was like working to get it fixed with an advisory we released thereafter.

Vulnerability Management Nirvana - Seattle Agora - 18Mar16Kymberlee Price
Vulnerability Management Nirvana: A Study in Predicting Exploitability
When everything is a priority, nothing is. 15% or 10,000 vulnerabilities have a CVSS score of 10. Vendors and practitioners alike use CVSS or their own threat intelligence models to predict which vulnerabilities will be exploited next. We review current options, present a predictive data-driven prioritization model, and how attendees can get started using our approach in their vulnerability management program.
Truly Secure: The Steps a Security Practitioner Took to Build a Secure Public...John Kinsella
My CSA 2011 talk - gives an overview of what one needs to do to review the security if a commercial or open-source cloud stack and feel confident in providing secure cloud services.
Watch on-demand now: https://securityintelligence.com/events/application-security-protection-world-of-devops/
How do organizations build secure applications, given today's rapidly moving and evolving DevOps practices? Development teams are aware of the shifting security challenges they face. However, they're by no means security experts, nor do they have spare time on their hands to learn new tools.
What can development teams do to keep pace with rapidly-evolving application security threats?
The answer lies in automation. By making application security part of the continuous build processes, organizations can protect against these major risks.
In this session, you will learn:
- New security challenges facing today’s popular DevOps and Continuous Integration (CI) practices, including managing custom code and open source risks with containers and traditional environments.
- Best practices for designing and incorporating an automated approach to application security into your existing development environment.
- Future development and application security challenges organizations will face and what they can do to prepare.

Software Security Engineering (Learnings from the past to fix the future) - B...DebasisMohanty43
This talk was presented at BSides Delaware 2021. This talk covered some crucial aspects of software security engineering and strategy that most organisations have overlooked or ignored. Primarily the presentation provides some insights on why still we continue to two decades old bugs and recommendations to consider going ahead.
Note: I gave this talk earlier in the year at the OWASP Global 21st event, but this presentation is a slightly extended version of the OWASP talk. Therefore, treat this slide as the most up to date version.
The video recording of this talk is available via the BSides DE youtube channel.
Vulnerability Management In An Application Security World: AppSecDCDenim Group
Identifying application-level vulnerabilities via penetration tests and code reviews is only the first step in actually addressing the underlying risk. Managing vulnerabilities for applications is more challenging than dealing with traditional infrastructure-level vulnerabilities because they typically require the coordination of security teams with application development teams and require security managers to secure time from developers during already-cramped development and release schedules. In addition, fixes require changes to custom application code and application-specific business logic rather than the patches and configuration changes that are often sufficient to address infrastructure-level vulnerabilities.
This presentation details many of the pitfalls organizations encounter while trying to manage application-level vulnerabilities as well as outlines strategies security teams can use for communicating with development teams. Similarities and differences between security teams’ practice of vulnerability management and development teams’ practice of defect management will be addressed in order to facilitate healthy communication between these groups.

8 Patterns For Continuous Code Security by Veracode CTO Chris WysopalThreat Stack
Deploying insecure web applications into production can be risky -- resulting in potential loss of customer data, corporate intellectual property and/or brand value. Yet many organizations still deploy public-facing applications without assessing them for common and easily-exploitable vulnerabilities such as SQL Injection and Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).
This is because traditional approaches to application security are typically complex, manual and time-consuming – deterring agile teams from incorporating code analysis into their sprints.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. By incorporating key SecDevOps concepts into the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) – including centralized policies and tighter collaboration and visibility between security and DevOps teams – we can now embed continuous code-level security and assessment into our agile development processes. We’ve uncovered eight patterns that work together to transform cumbersome waterfall methodologies into efficient and secure agile development.
Similar to Open Source Security – A vendor's perspective (20)
A big focus for web development this year was the EU's General Data Protection Regulations entering into force. This talk will counter some of the misinformation about GDPR and privacy-centred design in general, as well as introduce a Plone add-on to make it easy to deploy sites that respect users' privacy.
The Zope Component Architecture is a very powerful tool which is widely used in Plone and the Plone community. For stock users of Plone it can seem like an encumbrance, slowing the site down and complicating development without any advantages. However, even basic applications built with Plone can benefit from some ZCA tricks that are not as widely known as they should be.
This talk will demonstrate simple uses of the component architecture which, along with a typical Plone stack, allow developers to deliver very performance Plone sites while simultaneously freeing the developer from the normal optimisation worries.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
