Topic: Disinformation is the malware of a free society

Abstract:

The future of information security is not protecting networks or endpoints. A new and unique security condition has emerged that has no IOC’s or TTP’s. However, it is arguably the most dangerous of all emerging threats. If exploited, it can alter elections, destabilize governments, and bring a swift end to truth and the institutions that rely on truth. The future of information security is detecting and preventing the spread of disinformation, but does the security community have the tools and framework to do it?

Speaker 2: Haral Tsitsivas, Principal Product Security Engineer, Arlo Techologies

Topic: OWASP Top 10 2021

Abstract:

The OWASP Top Ten is a standard awareness document for developers and web application security. It represents a broad consensus about the most critical security risks to web applications. In this talk they'll look at the changes between the previous version of 2017 and the 2021 version. For the Top Ten 2021, the team calculated average exploit and impact scores in the following manner. They grouped all the CVEs with CVSS scores by CWE and weighted both exploit and impact scored by the percentage of the population that had CVSSv3 + the remaining population of CVSSv2 scores to get an overall average. They mapped these averages to the CWEs in the dataset to use as Exploit and (Technical) Impact scoring for the other half of the risk equation.
