ABSTRACT:
 
−
 
 
−
It's been over 10 years since the first automated web scanning products were introduced so why are so many of the dynamic or black box testing tools still challenging to use and often ineffective? With the average organization having dozens or in some cases hundreds of web applications, testing them all manually is an expensive and time consuming task.  As a result organizations have turned to automated solutions to assess their online risks, but are automated dynamic scanning solutions really effective or are they only offering us a false sense of security?
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
This talk covers the history of web application scanning, how web applications and therefore the methods of assessing web application risk have and must change and how cloud computing is enabling new approaches to managing and assessing risk that bring scalability and cost inline with business expectations.
