DESCRIPTION: "Software Assurance - Solving the Application Security
Challenge for Internally Developed and 3rd Party Software"
Whether you are buying or building software, it is imperative
that the security of the software can be validated in a timely
and accurate manner to properly assess the risk and potential
impact to your organization.
Government and large enterprises are similar in that they both
require assistance in the following areas:
-Assessing the security of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS)
software where source code is unavailable
-Analyzing internally developed software for security quality
-Evaluating the security of code developed offshore
-Reviewing software as part of a Request for Proposal (RFP)
procurement process
In his presentation, Veracode Founder and CTO Chris Wysopal
will discuss how to create an independent application security
testing program that effectively automates and manages the
operational risk of internally developed applications, as well
as externally procured applications and components.
