An application ID might define your app among all others, but its signature is what proves and confirms its identity and integrity. From working in distributed teams to fending off fraudulent clones of your application, you eventually come to understand the importance of signatures.
In this talk we'll take a deep dive into the Android keystore system, certificates and signatures, and go over key points necessary for any application's long and productive life. Also, we will cover some security tips and tricks that will help ensure your app is safe to use, even if the users are faced with its evil twin.
At the end you should walk away with a deeper insight into everyday mechanisms that are often taken for granted, and the impact that they have on your users' security.
Managing development or developing management - survival instructions
Can't keep them together and you can't keep them apart - project stand still without both. Ones cannot give correct estimations, other understand nothing but deadlines. How do we find common ground and ensure the best conditions for any project to thrive?Join us in discovering the 10 steps for a peaceful and prosperous coexistence of management and development.
Inhibiting the impostor
Have you ever had an experience where a small voice in your head prevented you from acting on an idea, stopped you from sharing your knowledge or trying something new, or maybe even made you feel like your achievements were nothing special?
That voice is more common than you think!
In this talk we will go over the basic steps that will help you materialise, deconstruct and take control of that voice, helping you distinguish the useful bits of information that can help you grow from the overwhelming debris and clutter. You will learn how to notice the early signs of its onset and manage the situation to your benefit. Finally, you will learn to use simple tools that will help you recognise and acknowledge your achievements and help yourself and others fight the invisible menace.
Building an effective team from zero
The reality that any employer faces today is that it is increasingly difficult to find new talent. Once you do find them, you need keep your employees challenged and happy in order for them to stay.
Last year we took a leap of faith and ventured in setting up an office at a remote location where we previously did not have a significant presence and achieved a mutually beneficial collaboration with the University of Rijeka.
We will demonstrate how we provided industry based knowledge to students, details of our internship program and how we managed to setup and grow an effective team of 9 that is thriving.
Finally, we will share our wins and fails, what we have learned and how we managed to have fun along the way.
Better safe than sorry
Don't ask for security, ask for an adventure! Or not?
Mobile security has come a long way in the last few years, but it has definitely had its share of design and implementation faux pas, some far more memorable than others.
In this talk we'll go through Android and iOS security and its history; trends that were invented, reinvented and copied, how each platform approaches keeping their users safe, and share a laugh about the mistakes that were made along the way.
In the end you'll have greater insight in the history of security, how it has shaped the design of both platforms and how you can contribute to a greater user experience in your applications, while keeping your users safe!
Break your app before someone else does
You can never really know just how secure your app is until you've done your best trying to break it.
In a world where building apps is similar to playing with Legos, the sturdiness and stability of our creations is mostly tested by others. Unfortunately, this places our users at risk of exposing their data into potentially harmful hands.
Let's dive together and explore a series of practical, hands-on examples on how to explore an app, dismantle it and alter it in a way it wasn't intended to be.
