[SC-L] Top 5 Reasons to Implement Threat Modeling

2013-07-01 Thread Reef Dsouza
Hi Secure Coders,

As always, the Verizon Data Breach report highlighted some interesting
stats on attacks and breaches over the last year.  And, no surprise that
hacking accounts for a high chunk of those attack vectors, with SQL
Injection still prominent.

In order to build software securely, we cannot stress enough the importance
of proactively threat modeling applications and we’ve identified 5 of the
top reasons to do so. Avoiding a single breach is a good enough reason
alone to implement threat modeling but hey, for you skeptics out there,
we've compiled a handful of other key considerations as well.

Here's the blog post: http://myappsecurity.com/5-reasons-threat-modeling/

Please take a look – any and all feedback is welcome!


Thanks,

Reef Dsouza

[SC-L] Silver Bullet 87: James Walden

2013-07-01 Thread Gary McGraw
hi sc-l,

Last month, Cigital consultant Joe Harless suggested that I interview his NKU 
professor James Walden.  It was a good idea.  Thanks Joe.  I have known James 
for years.  He uses Software Security in some of his classes and he thinks 
about software security all day.

Trained as a particle physicist, James is one of the leaders in academic 
software security.  We talk about all sorts of things, top ten lists, breaking 
versus fixing, bugs and flaws.  James teaches a Secure Software Engineering 
course that is right up our ally here at sc-l.

Have a listen: http://www.cigital.com/silver-bullet/show-087/

And if you have a suggestion for a Silver Bullet episode, let me know!
