Session
In this 2-hour interactive workshop, we will dive into the world of Application Security with the perspective of one of the most iconic tech-savvy superheroes: Iron Man. Like Tony Stark, who continuously refines his armor to fend off evolving threats, we will explore how developers, security champions, and engineers can fortify their applications against vulnerabilities.
The session will cover the full spectrum of Application Security, from threat modeling and secure coding to incident response, framed within the tech innovation and constant iteration that Iron Man embodies. Attendees will learn practical approaches to building robust security mechanisms into their software development lifecycle (SDLC), while maintaining agility in the face of new threats—just as Iron Man does with his suits.
Through engaging analogies, real-world examples, and actionable takeaways, participants will leave with a superhero’s toolkit to defend their applications from vulnerabilities, automate their defenses, and respond swiftly to incidents.
Key Topics:
Threat Modeling: Understanding the foundational elements of secure software.
DevSecOps: How to protect core application components from critical threats.
Vulnerability Management: Proactive vulnerability management process.
Application Monitoring: Incident response tactics that mirror Iron Man's agility in combat.
Get ready to suit up and protect your applications with the same ingenuity and foresight as Iron Man!
