-'''Understanding cyber gaps in the human'''<BR>
-'''Jason Flood – Ethical Hacker IBM  '''<BR>
-'''Abstract:''' <BR>
-A Capture the Flag tournament, also known as a CTF is a framework often found at conferences such as IRISS, OWASP, Blackhat and many more. For the last number of years as part of my PhD research I have been creating CTF frameworks that operate at local, national and international levels, some of you may have played them or at least seen them, and looking at the results.
-These CTF events were built using a variety of architectures, network topologies and programming languages. The challenges they presented also varied both in complexity of exploit and potential organisational damage if exploited.
-Today we see attack know-how and attacker tools being freely traded on the internet, enabling hackers and exposing organisations to an even greater communal risk. Arguably it can be said that every organisation no matter the size needs a business plan.  If that business has an online footprint, then a part of that plan needs to focus on it's own cyber risk profile.
-Join us to explore how CTF applied methodologies can be used as part of business decisions around resource management, defensive technology solutions, defect management and other aspects of business activities that are associated with operating in a hostile environment such as the internet.

-''' The Encrypted Token Pattern CSRF Defence'''<BR>
-'''Paul Mooney –     Freelance, Ryanair Labs, insidethecpu.com''<BR>
-I’m the creator of the Encrypted Token Pattern and ARMOR, its .NET implementation.
-I specialise in taking apart problems, designing solutions, and providing those solutions as downloadable software frameworks, available under the MIT License.
-I’m a Software Architect, happiest when designing solutions to problems from a conceptual point-of-view, while getting my hands dirty assembling the nuts and bolts. For that reason, I try to avoid titles; if I had to brand myself, I’m a Technology Consultant.
-I’m most accomplished in C# in terms of language, however I’m also very proficient in JavaScript, Java, and Google Go.
-I’m a software-development mentor, and enjoy guiding teams of engineers toward effective technology-driven solutions to real-world problems.
-'''Abstract:''' <BR>
-The Encrypted Token Pattern is a defence mechanism against Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
-attacks, and is an alternative to its sister-patterns; Synchroniser Token, and Double Submit Cookie.
-This article discusses the merits and means of implementing this defence mechanism in web-based
-applications.
-''Brief Description''
-The Encrypted Token Pattern
-The Encrypted Token Pattern leverages a single token, as opposed to dual tokens, and offers a more
-narrow scope of failure than alternative CSRF protection patterns. <BR>
-Leveraging the Encrypted Token Pattern
-The Advanced Resilient Mode of Recognition (ARMOR) is a C# implementation of the Encrypted
-Token Pattern, available on GitHub under the MIT license that provides a means of protecting
-ASP.NET applications from CSRF attacks, by leveraging the Encrypted Token Pattern. A Java
-equivalent of ARMOR is under construction and will be available soon. <BR>
-ARMOR
-ARMOR is a framework composed of interconnecting components exposed through custom web-
-handlers. ARMOR is essentially an advanced encryption and hashing mechanism, leveraging the
-Rijndael encryption standard, and SHA256 hashing by default.

-'''Managing Your Application Security Program with the ThreadFix Ecosystem'''<BR>
-'''Dan Cornell – Denim Group - (https://www.linkedin.com/in/dancornell) '''<BR>
-A globally recognized application security expert, Dan Cornell holds over 15 years of experience architecting, developing and securing web-based software systems. As Chief Technology Officer and Principal at Denim Group, Ltd., he leads the technology team to help Fortune 500 companies and government organizations integrate security throughout the development process. Cornell is an active member of the development community and a sought-after speaker on topics of web application security, speaking at international conferences including RSA Security Conference, OWASP AppSec USA and EU and Black Hat Arsenal.
-'''Abstract:''' <BR>
-ThreadFix is an open source application vulnerability management system that helps automate many common application security tasks and integrate security and development tools. This tutorial will walk through the capabilities of the ecosystem of ThreadFix applications, showing how ThreadFix can be used to: Manage a risk-ranked application portfolio Consolidate, normalize and de-duplicate the results of DAST, SAST, IAST and other application security testing activities and track these results over time to produce trending and mean-time-to-fix reporting Convert application vulnerabilities into software defects in developer issue tracking systems Pre-seed DAST scanners such as OWASP ZAP with application attack surface data to allow for better scan coverage Instrument developer Continuous Integration (CI) systems such as Jenkins to automatically collect security test data Map the results of SAST and DAST scanning into developer IDEs The presentation walks through these scenarios and demonstrates how ThreadFix, along with other open source tools, can be used to address common problems faced by teams implementing software security programs. It will also provide insight into the ThreadFix development roadmap and upcoming enhancements.<br><br><br><br><br>
-''' AppSec Survey 2.0: Fine-Tuning an AppSec Training Program Based on Data'''<BR>
-'''John Dickson – Denim Group''' (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/john-b-dickson-cissp/0/149/41a)<BR>
-John Dickson is an internationally recognized security leader, entrepreneur and Principal at Denim Group, Ltd. He has nearly 20 years hands-on experience in intrusion detection, network security and application security in the commercial, public and military sectors. As a Denim Group Principal, he helps executives and Chief Security Officers (CSO’s) of Fortune 500 companies and government organizations launch and expand their critical application security initiatives.
-'''Abstract:''' <BR>
-Measuring the effectiveness of any security activity is widely discussed – security leaders debate the topic with a religious fervor rivaling that of any other hot button issue. Virtually every organization has some sort of application security training effort, but data on training effectiveness remains scarce. Last year our research team delivered the first-ever survey that captured developer awareness of secure coding concepts and the impact of formal application security training on a developer’s ability to write secure code. We learned that most software developer were aware of certain application security concepts, yet when asked how to write more secure code, they faired poorly. This year’s 600-developer survey provides more quantitative data on what software developers understand about application security, both concepts and practices. It dives most deeply into awareness of defensive coding practices, which most developers largely did not grasp in the 2013 survey. It also is separates respondents by roles, so we can better understand how architects, developers, and QA staff grasp key application security concepts and put them to work. It better captures how software developers learn in general, so one can tailor any security training effort to how software developers, in practice, actually learn. This information will provide data to application security managers responsible for corporate security training that should allow them to make more fact-based decisions about security training.

-Talk 1: Building a shield of security - Vulnerability Management by the numbers and dumb robots!
-Rahim Jina - BCC Risk Advisory
-Rahim has been an active member of OWASP since 2008 and has contributed to many projects such as the OWASP Security Code Review Guide and is an ex-board member of the Irish Chapter. Previously Rahim was a senior security consultant at a “big 4” professional services firm and more recently, the head of security for Fonality Inc, a VoIP service provider based in Los Angeles. Rahim is currently a director for BCC Risk Advisory (bccriskadvisory.com), based in Dublin, Ireland. He is also responsible for the security architecture of the edgescan.comvulnerability management solution.
-Abstract:
-This presentation discusses how builders, breakers and defenders should look at vulnerability management when attempting to keep hackers at bay. We discuss the most common vulnerabilities which are not detected by security tools nor automation but nevertheless are common and can be used to commit real fraud resulting in financial loss. We will see that Web Application Firewalls are ineffective against such attacks and why the only practical solution is to apply a layered approach across all aspects of the SDLC.
-Talk 2: "PCI's Changing Environment - What You Need to Know & Why You Need To Know It".
-Stephen Scott - Senior Consultant and PCI QSA in Espion's Information Government practice
-Stephen Scott, Consultancy Team lead in Espion, is an experienced information security, risk and compliance consultant whose experience spans across many different areas including, PCI DSS, information security, risk management, group internal audit, IT service management and regulatory compliance. Stephen has extensive experience with information security, internal control testing, compliance programmes, information risk management, and process improvement. Stephen has worked across a wide range of industry verticals, including financial, industrial and insurance.
-Abstract:
-PCI DSS – The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard sets common requirements for securing payment card information (credit, debit, some gift cards), and lays out a range of controls relating to auditing, scanning and assessment.
-This presentation discusses the ever evolving PCI environment, specifically focusing on the changes in the recent release of version 3 of the PCI DSS standard.  Stephen will start off by giving a brief background to PCI, including motivators for merchant and service providers to adhere to the standard.  In addition to this, the presentation will highlight what security considerations are relevant to application and information security practitioners.

-Eoin Keary will be delivering free application security training between 2pm and 5pm on the 30th May. Eoin was the founder of OWASP Ireland and is currently the global vice chair for OWASP (amongst many other things!  https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Eoin_Keary). He has delivered application security training to many developers and security professionals around the world and recently delivered a training course to over 400 people at the RSA Conference.
-The training will focus on secure application development and why we can't hack ourselves secure. It will be covering why penetration testing on its own does not work approaches to improvement including "knowing what you don't know" and how to measure change.
-It will be technical training covering XSS eradication, client side security and browser DOM curiosities.
-'''Talks'''
-The talks will be starting at 6pm in our office and OWASP have arranged two very interesting talks! Diarmaid McManus https://twitter.com/elephant_rb from Realex Payments will be expanding his award winning SecurityBSides London Rookie Track talk https://www.securityninja.co.uk/application-security/securitybsides-london-esp-security-plugin/ to include more details about static analysis approaches and his research and development work on ESP: Security Plugin https://github.com/diarmaid-mcmanus/ESPSecurityPlugin.
-Hugh Pearse https://twitter.com/hughpearse will be talking about Low Level Exploits and this looks like it will be a great talk:
-“In 2010 Mr Haroon Meer from thinkst.com presented a timeline of memory corruption vulnerabilities and their mitigation techniques dating from 1985 to 2010. In his 35 page publication he referenced almost 150 events in low level information security history. The scope of the presentation "Low Level Exploits" is to explain in detail some of the most significant attacks in from Haroon Meers research. The attacks covered in this presentation include buffer overflows on the stack, heap overflows, integer overflows, format strings, null pointers and ROP chains. This brings us to exploits in the present day where researchers are looking for the successor of the buffer overflow attack, next big exploit.”

-'''Title:''' OWASP ESAPI Swingset: Introduction & Demo by Cathal Courtney
-<br>
-'''Abstract:''' The ESAPI Swingset is a web application which demonstrates common security vulnerabilities and asks users to secure the application against these vulnerabilities using the ESAPI library. The application is intended for Java Developers. The goal of the application is to teach developers about the functionality of the ESAPI library and give users a practical understanding of how it can be used to protect web applications against common security vulnerabilities. During the talk, Cathal will demonstrate how to install and use ESAPI Swingset in your organization. A copy of the latest version will be also provided to the attendees.
-<br>
-'''Presenter:''' Cathal is an experienced developer working at AIB and is currently the ESAPI Swingset project leader. More information about this project could be found here: [http://www.owasp.org/index.php/ESAPI_Swingset Esapi SwingSet]

-'''Title:''' Security Implications for Web Applications based on SOA by John Marmelstein
-<br>
-'''Abstract:''' The main point of SOA (in this context) is combining systems and applications to make new applications, or a big 'overall' application.This higher inter-operability does (by default) lower security. For a start, a request originating from a web user might end up at several back end systems, which do not know who or what the request came from.
-<br>
-Each back end system might have no access to the customer data, have a different security models, and serve serveral front end. Each of the above systems could be under different ownership, thus the owners have different concerns and priorities. Also, the basic solution at a technical level include single sign on, or security as a service. This can be costly, give limited coverage and have a performance hit. But is pretty much the only way to do it. The other thing to do (probably in tandem) is strict management, and delegation of authority.
-<br>
-'''Presenter:''' John has about 13 years in IT. Most of this in distributed systems and 'Middleware' integration software. Including BEA (now owned by Oracle). Mainly working on Enterprise Java and more recently on Microsoft BizTalk. Various industries, incuding financials, public services, and a fish farm.

-'''Title:''' OWASP O2 Platform - Open Platform for automating application security knowledge and workflows <br>'''Abstract:''' In this talk Dinis Cruz will show the OWASP O2 Platform which is an open source toolkit specifically designed for developers and security consultants to be able to perform quick, effective and thorough 'source-code-driven' application security reviews. The OWASP O2 Platform (http://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_O2_Platform) consumes results from the scanning engines from Ounce Labs, Microsoft's CAT.NET tool, FindBugs, CodeCrawler and AppScan DE, and also provides limited support for Fortify and OWASP WebScarab dumps. In the past, there has been a very healthy skepticism on the usability of Source Code analysis engines to find commonly found vulnerablities in real world applications. This presentation will show that with some creative and powerful tools, it IS possible to use O2 to discover those issues. This presentation will also show O2's advanced support for Struts and Spring MVC.
-'''Presenter:''' Dinis Cruz is a Security Consultant based in London (UK) and specialized in: ASP.NET/J2EE Application Security, Application Security audits and .NET Security Curriculum Development. For the past years Dinis has focused on the field of Static Source Code analysis, from May 2007 to Dec 2009 he worked as a independent consultant for Ounce Labs (bought by IBM in July 2009) where during active security engagements using Ounce's technology he developed the Open Source codebase which now is the foundation of the OWASP O2 Platform. Dinis is currently focused on making the O2 Platform the industry standard for consuming, instrumenting and data-sharing between the multiple WebAppSec tools, the Security consultants and the final developers. Dinis is a also active trainer on .Net security having written and delivered courses for IOActive, Foundstone, Intense School and KPMG (at multiple locations including BlackHat), and has delivered a number of presentations and keynote speeches at multiple OWASP and Security related conferences. At OWASP, Dinis is the leader of the [[OWASP O2 Platform]] project, member of the OWASP [[Global Projects Committee]], chair of the [[OWASP Connections Committee]] and member of the [[About The Open Web Application Security Project#Global_Board_Members|OWASP Board]].

-'''Title:''' Trials &amp; Tribulations of WAF Implementation<br>'''Abstract:''' A web application firewall (WAF) is an appliance, server plugin, or filter that applies a set of rules to an HTTP conversation. Generally, these rules cover common attacks such as Cross-site Scripting (XSS) and SQL Injection. By customizing the rules to your application, many attacks can be identified and blocked. The effort to perform this customization can be significant and needs to be maintained as the application is modified.<br>Mark will be presenting on his experience in implementing a Web Application Firewall solution through all phases from research to implementation.

-== OWASP Event: Define Security Requirements - A practical approach  ==
-'''When:''' 20/5/2010 6:30pm - 7:30pm <br>
-'''Where:''' Ernst &amp; Young, Harcourt Street, Dublin 2, Opposite the Odeon Pub, Dublin, Ireland
-'''Sponsors:''' [[Image:Ey logo.gif]]<br>
-'''Title:''' Define Security Requirements - A practical approach<br>'''Abstract:''' The Data Protection Act states that "appropriate security measures" must be taken to protect personal data. How do you specify the appropriate security measures for a website which processes personal data? It is an important step in a development project, but is often neglected. In this talk, Alexis will descibe his own experiences of assessing web application, and will also look in more detail at what the Data Protection Commissioner says. He will then take a fictional website and look at a practical approach to specifying the security requirements that the fictional application should meet. This will use the kind of risk-based techniques outlined by OWASP or the Microsoft Secure Development Lifecycle (SDL). Issues discussed will include encryption, authentication, access control, audit, etc. The result will be a list of security requirements that can be carried into the design and development phases. Attendees should be able to apply the ideas to their own development projects.
-'''Presenters:'''
-'''Alexis Fitzgerald - Rits Information Security Group''' <br>For the last six years Alexis has worked for Rits Information Security Group, where he performs application penetration testing assignments as well as advising clients on application security issues.
