In this virtual event, join CSNP's leaders to learn about what CSNP is, their goals and mission from Emily Stamm. Followed by Abdel who will demonstrate how to use open source tools to search through your Git Commit History and find sensitive data. Finally, David will discuss vulnerability deferment, bot detections, antiquated application protections, IP blocking, alert fatigue, etc.

Title: Protecting Runtime Applications
Abstracts:
One thing that you learn in the technology space is that change is constant. Companies, solutions, and people who sit on their laurels can find themselves in a position of never-ending catch up. For security operations and application security professionals who rely exclusively on web application firewalls (WAFs) or runtime application security protection (RASP), this talk should open your eyes to better understanding gaps. Tethered to traditional signature-based security approaches, WAFs simply aren't able to keep pace with the changes in the advanced threat landscape. But at the same time, RASP does not provide some of the same bot and DDoS protections that a WAF may provide. And yet, application security professionals are still directly comparing a WAF and RASP as to use one or the other, which is like comparing virus protection and endpoint detection and response (EDR). Join David in this talk as he explains the similarities and differences between a WAF and RASP. David will discuss things such as vulnerability deferment, bot detections, antiquated application protections, IP blocking, alert fatigue, etc. David will also dig in to how WAF and RASP should work harmoniously and why you should be utilizing the strengths and benefits of each in your overall.
