San Antonio OWASP Chapter: October 2008 Meeting
Topic: Ensuring System Security Using Data Flow Analysis
Presenter: Price, Senior Research Engineer at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI)
Date: October 22,2008 11:30am – 1:00pm
Location:
San Antonio Technology Center (Web Room) 3463 Magic Drive San Antonio, TX 78229 http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=3463+Magic+Drive,+San+Antonio,+TX+78229
Abstract:
Ensuring computer system security using user defined policies is a difficult problem. One approach that is currently being researched is the application of system-level data flow analysis to ensure malicious code cannot infiltrate the system.
The data flow analysis involved with ensuring system security needs two levels of granularity: inter-process data flow analysis and intra-process data flow analysis. The University of Texas at Austin Department of Computer Science has created a Dynamic Data Flow Analysis (DDFA) tool that implements intra-process data flow analysis. Purdue University has created a Process Coloring (PC) system that implements the inter-process data flow analysis. Southwest Research Institute is working with both universities to integrate the PC and DDFA technologies to implement the system level data flow analysis solution. This talk will focus on technical details of the two different technologies and will detail example security scenarios that can be solved using these technologies.
