8:15pm - Enterprise Application Security - GE's approach to solving root cause and establishing a Center of Excellence
GE has established a holistic Application Security Program that seeks to detect, correct and prevent security defects throughout the application lifecycle. The program is focused on finding defects early in the development process and fixing the root cause through company-wide deployment of Guidance, Education, Tools and Metrics. The program's "Center or Excellence" has assessed several thousand applications across different GE business units and has observed, through metrics, a significant improvement in the security of the applications being deployed over the past several years. This presentation analyzes some of the critical success factors for this program and shares metrics which show that these programs are making a significant difference.
Speaker: Darren Challey Application Security Leader at GE.
Come prepared for networking with your industry peers, enter raffles for prizes and learn new techniques and careers in application security.
