Applications run the world. They provide an interface to the rest of the technologies and data we create, share, and make decisions with. Sometimes these interfaces come in the form of a user interface (UX), sometimes in the form of an API. In both cases, they offer a path to the systems and information we hold dear to us.
In this Chats on the Road to DEF CON, we connect with the co-founders and organizers of the AppSec Village along with their keynote speaker at the village this year. This is a conversation about the real-world that you won't want to miss.
About the AppSec Village
Welcome to AppSec Village, where red, blue and purple teamers, come together learn from the best of the best on how to exploit software vulnerabilities and how to secure software. Software is everywhere, and Application Security vulnerabilities are lurking around every corner making the software attack surface attractive for abuse. If you are just an AppSec n00b or launch deserialization attacks for fun and profit, you will find something to tickle your interest at the AppSec Village.
Our mission is to promote diverse voices and perspectives in an inclusive environment driven for and by the appsec community to increase education and awareness of application security methods and practices.
About Chris Kubecka's Keynote: Wartime AppSec
To understate things, the 2020s have been a challenging time for AppSec. First, Corona took the hardware out of the office for everyone. Now, with a war in Ukraine activating hacktivists, patriotic hackers, and nation-state level actors are wreaking havoc on our apps and websites. Cyber-attacks are targeting the code and products of allied nations, pro-Russian, and pro-sanction companies.
Come on a journey with a hacker who will share the top ten geopolitical gotchas in your AppSec and real-world examples. Through her experiences in several cyber warfare incidents as well as her recent experiences in Ukraine, Romania, Moldova, and Transnistria.
