ABSTRACT
Attend this session and learn how you can
prevent today's most significant data
security vulnerabilities—the kind that
leave businesses open to fraud that ranges
from capturing tens of millions of credit
card numbers to stealing money from bank
accounts to constructing next-generation
botnets. We'll review how cross-site request
forgery, cross-site script inclusion and SQL
injection attacks work and discuss their
impact on Web 2.0, AJAX, mashup and social
networking applications. We'll present
industry-wide statistics on security
vulnerabilities, cover emerging security
trends and discuss the current state of
security education. Then we'll tell you how
to defend against security attacks and how to
modify your software development process to
achieve security, and we'll recommend
certification programs, books and
organizations that can help you secure your
applications.
