John Dickson and I will be at RSA 2010 next week. I will be running around giving demos of our Vulnerability Manager and John Dickson is running a P2P session on getting management buy-in for secure software initiatives. We will also be at a bunch of the after-parties for OWASP, WhiteHat, etc. Hope to see folks there.
Here is the info on the P2P session:

Session Code: | P2P-106A | |
Session Title: | Secure Software Initiatives: How Do You Get Management Buy-in? | |
Scheduled Date/Time: | Tuesday, March 02 01:00 PM Burgundy Room 222 |
|
Session Abstract: | The vast majority of information that exists about software security either focuses on technical means to build more secure applications, or strategies to put controls in a software development process. Unfortunately, there is a dearth of information regarding how managers should push secure software initiatives forward, convincing executives that software security is critical to trusted business operations. What can security officers do to build consensus around security for applications? | |
Facilitator: | John Dickson, CISSP Principal Denim Group, Ltd. |
Please contact us if you are going to be at RSA 2010 and would like to meet up.
