| − | CTF (Capture The Flag) is a type of computer security competition. Contestants are presented with a set of challenges and puzzles which test their creativity, technical coding (and googling) skills, and problem-solving ability. Challenges usually cover a number of categories and when solved, each yields a “flag” which is submitted to a real-time scoring service. The difficulty levels are from beginner to advanced.
| |
| | | | |
| − | CTF tournaments are a great and fun way for software developers to learn a wide array of application security skills in a safe and legal environment.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Top scorers will win prizes kindly donated by cyber security technology vendors.

| − | The British Computer Society (BCS) Cybercrime Forensics Special Interest Group (SIG) promotes Cybercrime Forensics and the use of Cybercrime Forensics; of relevance to computing professionals, lawyers, law enforcement officers, academics and those interested in the use of Cybercrime Forensics and the need to address cybercrime for the benefit of those groups and of the wider public.

| − | OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit worldwide charitable organization focused on improving the security of application software. Their mission is to make application security visible, so that people and organizations can make informed decisions about true application security risks.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The '''Cyber Security and Networking''' ('''CSN''') Research Group at Anglia Ruskin University has close working strategic relationships with industry, professional bodies, law enforcement, government agencies and academia in the delivery of operationally focused applied information and application security research. We have strong international links with professional organisations such as OWASP, BCS, ISC2, IISP & the UK Cyber Security Forum amongst others. The primary aims of CSNRG are to help the UK and partner nations to tackle cybercrime, be more resilient to cyber attacks and educate its users for a more secure cyberspace and operational business environment. These will be achieved through the investigation of threats posed to information systems and understanding the impact of attacks and creation of cyber-based warning systems which gathering threat intelligence, automate threat detection, alert users and neutralising attacks. For network security we are researching securing the next generation of software defined infrastructures from the application API and control/data plane attacks. Other key work includes Computer forensic analysis, digital evidence crime scenes and evidence visualisation as well as Cyber educational approaches such as developing Capture the Flag (CTF) resources and application security programs.

| − | '''Goher Mohammad - Head of Security Engineering for Leadership Team at Photobox Group Security'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Bio'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Making his mark as one of the youngest IT leaders in Omnicom Group back in 2004, Goher has a huge passion for IT with a particular drive not just do things well but do things better. Having had to deal with more comprehensive but secure and controlled structures in Citibank and Merrill Corporation to more agile environments within Omnicomgroup and now Photobox Group, the next step for him is how to combine the best of both worlds. A keen diver, traveller keen to explore the world, Goher also loves play retro video games and not so secretly is a complete tech geek. Deep down, his inquisitive nature is always looking to understand the inner workings of everything that’s around and in turn, how can it be made better.

| |
| − | '''Abstract'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In an ever changing IT world with increased velocity of evolution, we have several challenges we need to deal with. One of which is how the hell do we keep up with the change. Scaling security workflows is an interesting challenge but need not be complex as you may have the tools you need already at your disposal. The second is how do we individually get noticed by talent finders and recruiters. Crowd sourced based security teams may well be the solution to your problems.

| |
| − | ==== Guest Speaker: Jonathon Brookfield –Security Research Group Director, Blackberry ====
| |
| − | '''Bio:'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Jonathon Brookfield leads the Security Research Group at BlackBerry. He has been working in product security for over 12 years, with the last 6 years at BlackBerry. At BlackBerry he has been involved in improving the security of a range of products including BlackBerry OS, BlackBerry 10 and most recently the PRIV on the device side and BlackBerry ID and Enterprise Identity by BlackBerry on the services side.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==== Abstract: ''“Security OAuth 2.0”'' ====
| |
| − | Enterprise authentication and single sign-on is a frequently overlooked subject by developers and security testers and is often relegated to something that "just works" or stands in the way of accessing the application being assessed. As such, the finer details are frequently ignored or left to third-party libraries to implement. This talk aims to help penetration testers and developers understand OAuth 2.0 protocol, detailing its components, configurations and modes of operation. Common implementation pitfalls will be explored from first-hand experience of securing OAuth in the enterprise, and an example will be demonstrated of how a mistake in the implementation can lead to a compromise of applications relying on OAuth for authorisation.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Bio:'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Marc cut his teeth looking after applications and infrastructure for various online financial services companies before venturing into consultancy and ultimately founding 4ARMED, a company focused on appsec and cloud computing. He part Dev, part Sec, part Ops (the cool kids call this DevSecOps I think) and his latest squeeze is all things Docker and Kubernetes.

| |
| − | '''Abstract: ''“XXE - The Bug That Bit Me”'''''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XXE and me have history. It taught me a valuable lesson and we’ve been friends ever since. It’s prolific yet still relatively unknown outside security testing circles.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | It was a new addition to the OWASP Top Ten in 2017 and is unique compared to the other entries. In this talk I’ll explain why, provide live demonstrations of how to find and exploit it based on real world examples I’ve found, show what it’s impact can be and ultimately give you some tips to avoid it.
