'''Abstract:'''  We frequently apply Risk Management concepts in our daily lives, whether it’s driving in the rain on the freeway, or crossing a busy intersection. It comes down to making a choice, taking a calculated risk to reach our objective.  We decide quickly, making assumptions about the threats and about our environment.  The lessons we learn from our failures help us make wiser decisions next time, if we survive.

'''Abstract:'''  Web Services represent a new and unexplored set of security-sensitive technologies that have been widely deployed by large companies, governments, financial institutions, and in consumer applications.  Unfortunately, the attributes that make web services attractive, such as their ease of use, platform independence, use of HTTP and powerful functionality, also make them a great target for attack. In this talk, we will explain the basic technologies (such as XML, SOAP, and UDDI) upon which web services are built, and explore the innate security weaknesses in each.  We will then demonstrate new attacks that exist in web service infrastructures, and show how classic web application attacks (SQL Injection, XSS, etc…) can be retooled to work with the next-generation of enterprise applications.  
 
 
Using a new Framework of Risk Management & Analysis (FoRMA) for Secure Software Development, we will be able to make better decisions by understanding our threats.  FoRMA will help us ensure that we have the appropriate level of protection to maximize our business objectives, increasing quality and minimizing cost.

'''''Presented by: Jeremiah Grossman, Founder and CTO, WhiteHat Security'''''<br/>
 
'''Abstract:''' Malicious JavaScript is capable of stealing cookies, capturing keystrokes, monitoring activity and planting root kits.  Attackers are using JavaScript to hijack browser sessions to commit bank fraud, hack other websites, or post derogatory comments in a public forum – all without traces, tracks or warning sirens. Web application security research is revealing that outsiders can also use these hijacked browsers to exploit intranet websites.
 
 
 
Most assume while surfing the Web we are protected by firewalls that are isolated through private networks.  We believe nothing is capable of directly connecting in from the outside world. Right? Well, not quite.  Web browsers can be completely controlled by any web page, enabling them to become launching points to attack internal network resources. 
 
 
 
The web browser of every user on an enterprise network becomes a stepping stone for intruders.  During this presentation we'll demonstrate a wide variety of cutting-edge web application attack techniques and describe best practices for securing websites and users against these threats.
 
 
 
You’ll see
 
 
 
    * Port scanning and attacking intranet devices using JavaScript
 
    * Blind web server fingerprinting using unique URLs
 
    * Discovery NAT'ed IP addresses with Java Applets
 
    * Stealing web browser history with Cascading Style Sheets
 
    * Best-practice defense measures for securing websites
 
    * Essential habits for safe web surfing

The Next Generation of Vulnerable Applications
Presented by: Alex Stamos, Founding Partner, iSEC Partners
Abstract: Web Services represent a new and unexplored set of security-sensitive technologies that have been widely deployed by large companies, governments, financial institutions, and in consumer applications. Unfortunately, the attributes that make web services attractive, such as their ease of use, platform independence, use of HTTP and powerful functionality, also make them a great target for attack. In this talk, we will explain the basic technologies (such as XML, SOAP, and UDDI) upon which web services are built, and explore the innate security weaknesses in each. We will then demonstrate new attacks that exist in web service infrastructures, and show how classic web application attacks (SQL Injection, XSS, etc…) can be retooled to work with the next-generation of enterprise applications.
