August Meeting Announcement

Defensible .NET

ASP.NET and the .NET framework have become a preferred foundation underlying enterprise applications. While Microsoft has prioritized integrating security into the ASP.NET framework, attacks at the application layer are dramatically increasing. How effective are the security controls built into the ASP.NET framework? Application architects must understand the limitations of the framework and ensure that code is secure. Focusing on the OWASP top ten, Jason Montgomery will explain the latest defensive techniques specific to the ASP.NET environment, and discuss the importance and challenges of building security into the organization’s software development lifecycle.
