OWASP A9: A Year Later - Are you still using components with known vulnerabilities?

Presented at AppSec USA 2014, Sept. 19, 2014, 3 p.m. (45 minutes)

It's been more than a year now since the introduction of the new A9 to the OWASP Top Ten list. How are you doing to ensure you are not "using components with known vulnerabilities" in your applications? Join this session to hear real-world case studies of organizations who have taken steps to follow the best practices in this guideline to manage the use of comments across the software lifecycle. Hear what is working well and where there are still challenges. Trend data from thousands of application analyses will also be shared to provide a broader view of how we are doing as an industry to manage this risk.
