The Coming Earthquake in App and API Security

A shake-up has begun in App and API security, and you’ve probably felt it coming.

The ground upon which your existing security practices and defense philosophy is based is starting to crack, with these tectonic plates shifting underneath.

1. Shifting attack trends
OLD: Simple infrastructure and identity compromises
EMERGING: Sophisticated multi-faceted attacks, which increasingly include application and API layer vulnerabilities

2. Shifting risk measurement
OLD: Prioritizing risks purely based on vulns in development
EMERGING: Prioritizing based on level of threat, blast radius, and other production context

3. Shifting legal liability
OLD: Corporations protected by "reasonable and customary" box-checking
EMERGING: Both corporate AND EXECUTIVE liability without having to prove negligence for either vulnerabilities or bugs

Your current practices and defense philosophy were devised for a terrain map that is rapidly becoming outdated. What should they look like once the tremors subside?

Join App and API Security Pioneer Larry Maccherone in this thought-provoking discussion on how to earthquake-proof your business and career.
