Title:
A Fireside Chat on Testing Like a Hacker
Description:
Join Dr. Kevin Fu and Dr. David Brumley for a fireside chat on testing like a hacker. How do you find and exploit new zero days in software? Hackers answer this question one way, while software development another. No wonder there is a disconnect, and we often ship unsafe software. This talk will focus on offense, and how elite hackers think and work to find new zero days. We’ll show how you can use the same zero-day methodology to put testing like a hacker in your pipeline so that you can ship safer software faster. We’ll also connect this to pen testing, SBOM, and medical device security.
