For years developers have been told to think about and bake security into their apps while they code for various reasons. This talk will explore this old adage and see just how it might play out, live. As a web application is built we will explore when is the right time to think about security controls like authentication, authorization, security headers and many more and what can happen if those are ignored.

About Adam:

The BBS owner, having discovered that some kid had brute-forced his passwords for funsies, declined to press charges against Adam, and instead did the next best thing: offered him a job. Under that long-ago sensei’s tutelage, Adam learned the ways of hacking and of reverse engineering, awakening a love for breaking things.

Adam is adept in assessing and securing Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Django, and PHP web apps, as well as providing expertise on secure application design and performing penetration testing at key project points prior to and after launch.

When he’s not experiencing the beauty of winning, Adam is spending time with his equally lovely family and giving speeches on web security at like all the conferences ever.
