This page contains the resources for the talk titled 'AppSec is too hard!?'.
Abstract
At first glance, application security seems straightforward. Modern frameworks come with built-in security, and vulnerable technologies are gradually being replaced by safer alternatives. Yet, despite these advancements, the same vulnerabilities keep resurfacing. Is this due to carelessness, or is application security inherently difficult?
In this keynote, we dive into real-world security failures and uncover the root causes behind them. Through practical examples, we’ll analyze how things went wrong and explore more resilient approaches to securing applications. While it may seem like an uphill battle, this talk won’t leave you disheartened. Instead, you’ll walk away with a clear understanding of the challenges and actionable insights to strengthen security in your own applications.
