---------- Talks ----------
• Software Security
Herbert Brunner // securitects (full talk)
Software security is crucial when it comes to software development
due to the vast amount of software artifacts that are produced nowadays.
Security is a system-wide issue that takes into account both security mechanisms, such as access control, and design for security, such as robust design that makes software attacks difficult.
Put another way, security is an emergent property of a software system.
A security problem is more likely to arise, because of a problem in a standard-issue part of the system, e.g. the interface to the database module,
than in some given security feature. This is an important reason why software security must be part of a full life cycle approach.
Just as you can’t test quality into a piece of software, you can’t spray paint security features onto a design and expect it to become secure.
There’s no such thing as a magic crypto fairy dust — we need to focus on software security from the ground up.
The secure software development lifecylce leverages good software engineering practice and involves thinking about security early in the software development lifecycle, knowing and understanding common threats, designing for security and subjecting all software artifacts to thorough objective risk analyses and testing.
