| SUBJECT | Subject: [Hangout-NYLXS] What the Fuzz? -- February 13 tech meeting at
|
Monday, February 13
6:30 pm
Social Flow
52 Vanderbilt Avenue, 12th Floor, Manhattan
(corner East 45 St; any train to Grand Central)
In February, New York Perlmongers will host a presentation by
Christopher Frenz on the technology known as "fuzzing" and its role in
information security. Chris writes:
"The days of applying security patches, sticking a firewall in front of
your server, and considering it secure are well since past.
Vulnerabilities in applications themselves now far exceed those at the
network level and the OS level and as a result application security has
become critical to ensuring the security of any organization.
Unfortunately, for many development shops awareness of secure coding
practices is still not commonplace. This presentation will address how
fuzzing fits into the larger secure SDLC process and then take a more in
depth look at how fuzzing can be used to identify potential security
vulnerabilities within applications."
Thanks to Sam Kaufman and Social Flow for hosting this meeting.
(Note: We have a social meeting at Peculier Pub next Wednesday, January
18. We expect to announce soon another technical meeting for the last
week in January.)
Thank you very much.
Jim Keenan
