Effective Approaches To Web Application Security

Description: Abstract

This presentation will focus on new and interesting approaches to web application security problems posed by a continuous deployment environment. Specifically, this presentation will cover useful security systems such as automatic vulnerability and application fault detection, effective platform defenses for XSS/SQLi, practical security alerting mechanisms, and visualizations of security related data. This talk demonstrates how to create these systems using free tools that improve security posture without commercial security products.
