    DefectDojo and Bringing Quality Appsec Tools to Small Appsec Teams - Greg Anderson - ASW #312

    All appsec teams need quality tools and all developers benefit from appsec guidance that's focused on meaningful results. Greg Anderson shares his experience in bringing the OWASP DefectDojo project to life and maintaining its value for over a decade. He reminds us that there are tons of appsec teams with low budgets and few members that need tools to help them bring useful insights to developers. Segment Resources: https://owasp.org/www-project-defectdojo/ Three-quarters of CISOs surveyed reported being "overwhelmed" by the growing number of tools and their alerts: https://www.darkreading.com/cloud-security/cisos-throwing-cash-tools-detect-breaches As many as one-fifth of all cybersecurity alerts turn out to be false positives. Among 800 IT professionals surveyed, just under half of them stated that approximately 40% of the alerts they receive are false positives: https://www.securitymagazine.com/articles/97260-one-fifth-of-cybersecurity-alerts-are-false-positives 91% of organizations knowingly released vulnerable applications, 57% of vulnerabilities are left unresolved by developers, 32% of CISOs deploy vulnerable code in the hopes it won’t be discovered, 56% of developers struggle to prioritize vulnerability fixes: https://info.checkmarx.com/future-of-application-security-2024 Curl removes a Rust backend, double clickjacking revives an old vuln, a new tool for working with HTTP/3, a brief reminder to verify JWT signatures, design lessons from recursion, and more!

    Applying Usability and Transparency to Security - Hannah Sutor - ASW #311

    Practices around identity and managing credentials have improved greatly since the days of infosec mandating 90-day password rotations. But those improvements didn't arise from a narrow security view. Hannah Sutor talks about the importance of balancing security with usability, the importance of engaging with users when determining defaults, and setting an example for transparency in security disclosures. Segment resources https://youtu.be/ydg95R2QKwM Curl's oldest bug yet, RCPs (and more!) from AWS re:Invent, possible controls for NPM's malware proliferation, insights and next steps on protecting top 500 packages from the Census III report, the flawed design choice that made Microsoft's OTP (successfully) brute-forceable, and more!

  3. Biometric Frontiers: Unlocking The Future Of Engagement - Andras Cser, Enza Iannopollo - ASW #308

    Biometric Frontiers: Unlocking The Future Of Engagement - Andras Cser, Enza Iannopollo - ASW #308

    This week's interview dives deep into the state of biometrics with two Forrester Research analysts! This discussion compares and contrasts regional approaches to biometrics; examine the security challenges and benefits of their implementation; and reveal how biometrics holds the keys to a range of engagement models of the future. Andras Cser dives into the technical end of things and explains how biometrics can be resilient to attack. We can't replace our fingerprints or faces, but as Andras explains, there's no need to, thanks to how biometrics actually work. Then, Enza takes us through the latest on privacy in biometrics - a concern for both consumers, and businesses tasked with complying with privacy regulations and avoiding costly fines. Finally, get a sneak peek into the upcoming Forrester Security & Risk Summit. Whether you're an industry professional or just curious about the implications of biometrics, this episode delivers insights you won't want to miss! This week, in the Application Security News, we dismiss magical thinking and discuss what generative AI will actually be able to do for us. We also discuss whether Secure by Design's goals are practical or not. OSC&R releases a report on software supply chain that should be interesting, though neither of us had time to read it yet. Also, Watchtowr has some fun with Citrix VDI! Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/asw for all the latest episodes! Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/asw-308

    Bug bounties, vulnerability disclosure, PTaaS, fractional pentesting - Grant McCracken - ASW #306

    After spending a decade working for appsec vendors, Grant McKracken wanted to give something back. He saw a gap in the market for free or low-cost services for smaller organizations that have real appsec needs, but not a lot of means to pay for it. He founded DarkHorse, who offers VDPs and bug bounties to organizations of all sizes for free, or for as low of cost as possible. While not a non-profit, the company's goal is to make these services as cheap as possible to increase accessibility for smaller or more budget-constrained organizations. The company has also introduced the concept of "fractional pentesting", access to cyber talent when and how you need it, based on what you can afford. This implies services beyond just offensive security, something we'll dive deeper into in the interview. We don't see DarkHorse ever competing with the larger Bug Bounty platforms, but rather providing services to the organizations too small for the larger platforms to sell to. Microsoft delays Recall AGAIN, Project Zero uses an LLM to find a bugger underflow in SQLite, the scourge of infostealer malware, zero standing privileges is easy if you have unlimited time (but no one does), reverse engineering Nintendo's Alarmo and RedBox's... boxes. Bonus: the book series mentioned in this episode The Lost Fleet by Jack Campbell. Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/asw for all the latest episodes! Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/asw-306
