Organisms keep themselves safe in a world that's every bit as unpredictable as our world. This presentation will parallel what we can learn from the world of art, literature, science, nature and apply it to the world of software security. For e.g., If Shakespeare had to write about software security, what would he write? What does a naked motorist have to do with loose lips that sink ships? What does pH have to do with software vulnerabilities? What does the Stick Insects' regenerative ability have to do with software 'bugs'? or can the Ostrich sticking its head in the sand behavior reflect the modicum of risk management we observe today and many more ... The talk would be a fun-filled, extremely interactive session covering various concepts of security from risk management, defense in depth, secure programming, threats and vulnerabilities and compliance and more ... Come to find out the answers to the questions above and see what it takes to develop software with a security mindset throughout its life cycle. Come and look at software security from a different perspective that would make ALL the difference for you and your company.
