Cybercrime and the Developer: More tales from the dark side

By Steve Poole

Elevator Pitch

5 years ago I started talking about Cybercrime to developers. This talk will show off some of the always incredible ways that attacks can happen as a forceful reminder that there are more bad guys than ever out there and it’s time to wake up and smell the dying roses.

Description

The bad guys are still here. Clever, motivated and ruthless they have developed many new ways of tricking you: Hear about sneaky device attacks, amazing attacks-by-post , unbelievable physical choreography manipulations and more!. In this talk learn a little about the scale of the challenge developers still face from assaults on our systems. Be prepared to be appalled and scared. Fainting is not allowed.

This session will help you think about how to fight back - from the ways you code to the ways your behave. It’s up to you to play your part in defending against the dark side.

Your destiny is clear - it’s time to be come a Cyber Defender
