Presentation

With the integration of new technologies into web application development, there are more security dangers than ever before to be found in the application layer. This session discusses the landscape of web application security, new technologies being used in developing web applications and web services and the implications these have on system security. Technical vulnerabilities in web applications such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS) will be discussed alongside logical, business-level issues. The evolution of these flaws will be tracked as traditional web applications have expanded to include Web 2.0, AJAX and web services capabilities. The goal of the presentation is to educate developers, project managers and quality assurance personnel about the risks inherent in developing web applications and provide meaningful recommendations for addressing those risks during the software development lifecycle.
