GSA Technology Council

April Lunch – Staying ahead of Hackers

Few can argue that web applications present significant threat of attacks for organizations. Stay ahead of the hackers, understand how vulnerabilities in applications are first exposed and then exploited by cyber-criminals for profit.

Dan Gravelle, a Technology Specialist and a member of the IBM Security Team will be presenting the importance of web application security — today’s most significant online threat. Several of the most common web application attacks — how they occur, and what can be done to prevent them. Manual versus automated approaches for scanning and identifying web application vulnerabilities How an automated vulnerability scanner can help you automate more of what you are doing manually today. Dan will demonstrate the most common attacks and how easy it can be for today’s “hackers” to break into your systems. I guarantee this will keep you on the edge of your seats during the entire session.
