Last Month
In August, our talks were:
"Software Assurance and the Insider Threat" by Karen Mercedes Goertzel, Booz Allen. Karen is a subject matter expert in software assurance and information assurance, particularly multilevel secure systems and cross-domain information sharing. She supports the DHS SwA Program and the National Security Agency’s Center for Assured Software, and was lead technologist for 3 years on the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Application Security Program. Karen was lead author of IATAC's the state-of-the-art reports in software security assurance and insider threats. This talk will combine the two topics.
"Protecting Your Applications From Backdoors: How Static Binary Analysis Helps Build High-Assurance Applications" by Shawn Hank of Veracode. Backdoors and malicious code pose operational risk to software at a level too significant for organizations to ignore. The common practices of outsourcing and using third-party libraries are making modern application development increasingly complex. As a result, it is nearly impossible for an enterprise to identify the pedigree and security level of the software running their business-critical applications and handling their customers' personally identifiable information.
Next Meeting
Our next meeting is cancelled. See you in NYC!
