What are the most common mistakes made during the software development process which lead to security problems in the finished product?
In this talk, Peter af Geijerstam will present the top 10 issues leading to insecure software systems.
This talk is NOT about the technical aspects of buffer overflows, shell code or use-after-free vulnerabilities. It is about language- and OS-independent security-aspects such as design decisions, concepts, mistakes and bad luck.
If you are looking for in-depth technical security, this is not your talk. If you are a developer, curious about what you need to know about security, you should definitely attend. What to learn: What should you as developer be aware of? When should the alarm bells go off inside your head, saying "We need to think this over really carefully" or "I need to get an expert opinion on this"? How can you become an even better developer?
