Startup Institute NY (Summer 2016) - Authentication, Validation, and Basic Testing

This document is an agenda for a talk about Web 2.0 security woes. The talk will discuss how Web 2.0 applications have changed some threats and vulnerabilities compared to previous generations of web applications. While some threats have changed form, many of the same types of vulnerabilities still exist. The talk will provide examples of cross-site scripting and hidden functionality vulnerabilities. It will also discuss steps that development teams and customers can take to help improve security, such as training, secure coding practices, and involvement of security personnel throughout the development life cycle.

The document provides 10 tips for securing ASP.NET applications. It discusses common web attacks like cross-site request forgery and session fixation, and defenses against them such as using secret tokens and regenerating session IDs. It also covers proper use of cryptography, input validation, authorization, cookies, password security, and restricting application trust levels.

JWTs provide a more secure and scalable alternative to cookie-based authentication. JWTs contain encrypted user information that is verified on the client-side and transmitted with each request, avoiding the need for database lookups on the server-side. In contrast, cookies require server-side sessions and database lookups to validate the user on each request. JWTs also enable cross-domain requests and work across mobile and web platforms, while cookies have limitations in these areas. Developers are advised to use a third-party service to handle JWT generation and verification rather than implementing it themselves.

This presentation is a result of research and evaluation for SSO and IDM majorly focused to Drupal CMS. Enterprises, corporations and companies with multiple web properties are struggling to provide a better user experience and offer a single "corporate ID" and "Password" as the key for all. This single ID should be used across all the properties and corporations should still be able to manage the access level and permission of the respective user based on the grants assigned to this ID in each web property.

Everyone building a web application that supports user login is concerned with security. How do you securely authenticate users and keep their identity secure? With the huge growth in Single Page Applications (SPAs), JavaScript and mobile applications, how do you keep users safe even though these are 'unsafe' client environments? This presentation will demystify HTTP Authentication and explain how the Next Big Thing - Token Authentication - can be used to secure web applications on the JVM, REST APIs, and 'unsafe' clients while supporting security best practices and even improving your application's performance and scale.

You can improve how well your website works and looks across different devices using responsive web design techniques. But did you know you can also improve access for all users, including those with disabilities, by applying responsive techniques? Learn how.

According to HTTPArchive.org the average web page is now larger than the original DOOM installation application. Today's obese web is leading to decreased user satisfaction, customer engagement and increased cost of ownership. Research repeatedly tells us customers want faster user experiences. Search engines reward faster sites with better rankings. Small, fast sites are cheaper to develop, maintain and operate. - Why has the web become obese? - What actions can developers and stakeholders do to combat their morbid obesity? - Are these actions expensive or hard to implement? This session reviews what customers want and how to identify your web site's love handles. More importantly you will learn simple techniques to eliminate the fat and create a healthy, maintainable, affordable web development lifestyle that produces the user experiences your customers want to engage with over and over.

Our application got popular and now breaks under load. The document discusses common issues that cause applications to break as user load increases, such as overuse of shared scopes, inefficient database queries, and slow client-side performance. It provides examples of better approaches and techniques to optimize performance, such as using distributed caching, improving query efficiency through joins, compressing assets, and prioritizing critical CSS and JavaScript.

Identity and Access (AD), Azure and Office 365: Building a Single Page Application (SPA) with ASP.NET Web API and Angular.js using Azure Active Directory to Log in Users

Authentication verifies a user's identity by having them log in, while authorization determines which resources and pages the authenticated user has access to. For example, after authenticating normal and admin users on a website, authorization would prevent normal users from accessing admin pages. Authentication occurs before authorization and verifies the user, even if anonymously, while authorization checks the user's access rights after identity is confirmed.

A number of years ago I presented a talk at cfObjective on building an advanced, custom CF error handler. This talk will go above and beyond that, covering not just CF but JS/Ajax and SQL Server error logging and strategies for debugging errors on live sites. Developers should come away from this talk with lots of ideas for both custom code they can add to their sites as well a variety of open source and 3rd party solutions for error logging and use site analytics to track and fix issues on their live sites. Blog articles expanding on the information presented in this talk will also be published concurrent with the presentation at coldfusionmuse.com.

The document provides an overview of 10 best practices for AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). It discusses creating individual users and managing permissions with groups. It also covers granting least privilege, configuring strong password policies, enabling multi-factor authentication for privileged users, using IAM roles for EC2 instances and sharing access. Additional best practices include rotating security credentials regularly, restricting access with conditions, and reducing reliance on root users. The document is copyrighted material from Amazon.

We already showed you how to build a Beautiful REST+JSON API(http://www.slideshare.net/stormpath/rest-jsonapis), but how do you secure your API? At Stormpath we spent 18 months researching best practices, implementing them in the Stormpath API, and figuring out what works. Here’s our playbook on how to secure a REST API.

An overview of user authentication and authorization in the Galaxy project, and they can use it to authorize Galaxy to access their private resources on cloud, and how Galaxy implements the flow leveraging OpenID Connect protocol and Role-Based Access Control model to obtain temporary credentials.

REST+JSON APIs are great - but you still need to communicate with them from your code. Wouldn't you prefer to interact with clean and intuitive Java objects instead of messing with HTTP requests, HTTP status codes and JSON parsing? Wouldn't you prefer to work with type-safe objects specific to your API? In this presentation, Les Hazlewood - Stormpath CTO and Apache Shiro PMC Chair - will share all of the golden nuggets learned while designing, implementing and supporting multiple clients purpose-built for a real-world REST+JSON API. Further reading: http://www.stormpath.com/blog Stormpath is a user management and authentication service for developers. By offloading user management and authentication to Stormpath, developers can bring applications to market faster, reduce development costs, and protect their users. Easy and secure, the flexible cloud service can manage millions of users with a scalable pricing model.

An overview of web development essentials that will help you as a user experience designer to not only understand how to integrate designs with development components, but also to learn some tips on interacting effectively with developers.

A presentation from my speech about various technologies replacing password: multi-factor authentication, OATH, OTP, PKI, FIDO, U2F etc.

This document proposes a picture password authentication system using a touchscreen for illiterate users. The system would allow users to create passwords by touching images on the touchscreen in a predefined combination. If the user touches the images in the correct sequence, the microcontroller will authenticate them and grant access to appliances connected to relays. This technique aims to make passwords easier for illiterate users to remember compared to text passwords. A block diagram shows the main components would include a microcontroller, touchscreen module, LCD display, power supply, and relays connected to devices.

Graphical passwords are the alternative to textual password. It is more secure than textual password. http://www.trickyindia.net/delete-kik-account-permanently/ Thanks.

This document summarizes a seminar presentation on mobile phone cloning. It begins with an introduction that defines cloning as creating an exact genetic copy and explains that mobile phone cloning copies the identity of one phone to another, usually for fraudulent calls. It then covers topics like GSM and CDMA networks, how phones are cloned by capturing identifiers, methods to detect cloned phones, the impacts of cloning, and ways to prevent it. Statistics are provided on the costs of cloning to carriers and its use in criminal activities. The conclusion emphasizes the need for legislation against cloning fraud and for carriers and users to take security seriously.

Employability refers to an individual's ability to obtain and maintain employment. It depends on characteristics like skills, education, experience, and adaptability. High employability benefits both individuals and the overall economy. For individuals, it provides career opportunities and financial stability. For the economy, it leads to lower unemployment and higher productivity and economic growth. Maintaining employability requires continuous skills development, as labor market needs change rapidly. Workers need both technical skills specific to their occupation as well as soft skills like communication, problem solving, and cultural competence that facilitate employment across different roles and industries. Educational institutions, employers, workers, and policies all play a role in developing and sustaining employability.

- Cookies and sessions are used to maintain state in HTTP, a stateless protocol. Cookies are stored on the client side while sessions are stored on the server side. - Cookies can store string data and may persist even after closing the browser. Sessions can store any object but end when the browser closes. - GET requests can transmit data via URL parameters while POST transmits data within the HTTP request body and is more secure as data is not logged.

Vault is a tool for centrally managing secrets like passwords, API keys, and certificates. It addresses the problem of "secrets sprawl" where credentials are stored insecurely in multiple places like source code, emails, and configuration files. Vault centralizes secrets management, provides access control and auditing, and generates unique short-lived credentials to reduce risk if a secret is compromised. It also supports encrypting sensitive data for additional protection. Implementing Vault involves deciding where it will run, who will manage encryption keys, which secrets it will store, where audit logs will go, and who will operate and configure the system on an ongoing basis.

The document discusses session tracking techniques in servlets. It describes four main techniques: cookies, hidden form fields, URL rewriting, and HTTP sessions. Cookies are the simplest technique and involve assigning a unique session ID to each client as a cookie. Hidden form fields maintain state by storing information in hidden form fields and transmitting it across requests. URL rewriting appends a session ID to the URL. HTTP sessions involve saving client-specific information on the server side in an HTTP session object.

The document summarizes a presentation about proxy caches posing a threat to web application security. It begins with a review of the OWASP top 10 security risk of broken authentication and session management. It then describes how a vulnerability in Google Docs allowed access to other users' accounts due to issues with proxy caches and session management. The presentation warns that developers must assume proxy caches exist and can potentially expose session information to unintended users if session management is not implemented securely. It emphasizes the need for developers to test their applications under aggressive proxy cache scenarios.

This document discusses the importance of good design principles for test automation code. It provides examples of applying basic design concepts like avoiding duplication and separating concerns when automating tests using the Robot Framework and Selenium. The examples start simply by extracting duplicated steps in a single test into keywords and variables. They progress to splitting functionality across multiple files as "resources" and parameterizing tests to run with different data values. The goal is to demonstrate how non-programmers can design maintainable automated tests by applying basic coding best practices.

Not so much to say

Is your patent a vanity piece of paper for your office wall? Or is it a reliable, defendable, assertable, property right? The difference is often quality. Is your patent simply a transactional cost and a large pile of legal bills for your startup? Or is it a leverageable asset worthy of attracting precious investment dollars, worth its cost in multiples of valuation? The difference is often quality. Is your patent application only good enough to get through the examination process? Or has it been crafted to stand the tests of time and varied audiences if you later need to assert that document against an infringer, find yourself litigating with it in an Article 3 Court at the hands of a judge and jury, God forbid, end up having to defend its validity at the PTAB, or even needing to use it to block pirated imports at the International Trade Commission? The difference is often quality. Quality will be our focus for a good chunk of the remainder of this season. What goes into a quality patent, and where possible, how do you get it without breaking the bank? ** Episode Overview ** In this first episode of our quality series, Kristen Hansen and the panel discuss: ⦿ What do we mean when we say patent quality? ⦿ Why is patent quality important? ⦿ How to balance quality and budget ⦿ The importance of searching, continuations, and draftsperson domain expertise ⦿ Very practical tips, tricks, examples, and Kristen’s Musts for drafting quality applications https://www.aurorapatents.com/patently-strategic-podcast.html

Have you noticed the OpenSSF Scorecard badges on the official Dart and Flutter repos? It's Google's way of showing that they care about security. Practices such as pinning dependencies, branch protection, required reviews, continuous integration tests etc. are measured to provide a score and accompanying badge. You can do the same for your projects, and this presentation will show you how, with an emphasis on the unique challenges that come up when working with Dart and Flutter. The session will provide a walkthrough of the steps involved in securing a first repository, and then what it takes to repeat that process across an organization with multiple repos. It will also look at the ongoing maintenance involved once scorecards have been implemented, and how aspects of that maintenance can be better automated to minimize toil.
