Nightmare Mitigation: How to Defend Your Product With a Security Assurance Program

What does it mean to build a secure product? How do you ensure your product is designed securely before writing the first line of code or picking the first component? And how do you prove it to leadership and external entities such as auditors or regulators?

This session answers these questions and shows how Android is continually evolving its security assurance program. We will discuss how to produce secure products, get executive buy in, generate artifacts for compliance and more.

Thinking like an Attacker: Introduction to Threat Modeling

Threat modeling allows us to think like an attacker and find security design flaws before the first line of code is ever written. This session will teach the fundamentals of threat modeling and provide you with an oppurtunity to threat model your own application and begin finding potential security threats.
