J-Spring 2019: Brian Vermeer – Live exploiting your open source dependencies

Today, almost all software heavily relies on the use of third-party dependencies. While open source modules are undoubtedly awesome, they also represent an undeniable and massive risk. You’re introducing someone else’s code into your system, often with little or no scrutiny. Including the wrong package can introduce severe vulnerabilities, exposing your application and your user’s […]

J-Spring 2018: Simon Maple – Common vulnerabilities you wish your Java app didn’t have!

This session takes some of the most common vulnerabilities found in the Java eco-system, breaks them down and shows how simple code can exploit them. We’ll look at examples in the wild that have been exposed, some more famously than others, before showing you how to guard against these important security issues. Bio Simon: Simon […]

J-Spring 2019: Emond Papegaaij – Oauth2 demystified

Almost every developer will have to face this at some point in his or her career: authorization with OAuth2.

J-Fall 2018: Maarten Mulders – SSL/TLS for Mortals

Using Transport Layer Security (TLS) the right way is often a big hurdle for developers. We prefer to have that one colleague perform “something with certificates”, because he/she knows how that works. But what if “that one colleague” is enjoying vacation and something goes wrong with the certificates? In this session we’ll take a close […]

Future Tech 2019: Brenno de Winter – Resilience starts with code. Any attack starts with code

Bad code installed and smart exploits created. As soon as espionage or other APT’s are involved vague terms, lack of understanding and especially fear kick in. Common sense dictates other behavior. In this talk we focus on what we can do, what we should do and especially what you can do. Surviving digital xenophobia begins with replacing […]
