DevelopSec: Developing Security Awareness

Ever read a security advisory that told you to “use a VPN” to protect a Bluetooth device? In this episode we talk about how bad or inaccurate recommendations can be a problem with security findings.  We take a look at an example of recommendations that don't relate to the issue at all, leaving people confused at how to respond. Share with us your experience with recommendations that just missed the mark.References:CISA Wheelchair Article - https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-medical-advisories/icsma-25-364-01Skateboard Article - https://gizmodo.com/faceplant-exploit-lets-hackers-hijack-an-electric-ska-1722691650Bicycle Shifter Article - https://www.bicycling.com/racing/a61994540/hackers-target-electronic-shifters/Send us Fan MailFor more info go to https://www.developsec.com or follow us on X (@developsec).The DevelopSec podcast is brought to you by Jardine Software Inc.

Have you ever felt that feeling of thinking your account has been compromised? It can be a scary feeling. But what about when it didn't really happen? Instead it was just confusing messaging.   That is what I talk about in this episode. The importance of proper messaging in the right context.

Welcome to the develop SEC podcast where our focus is your success in securing and improving development processes. And here's your host, James Jardine. Hey, everyone, welcome back to the show. Today, I want to talk about addressing the symptoms versus addressing the root problem. And I think in application security, or when we talk about secure development, this is something where a lot of times we address the symptoms, but we never really take the step back to address the actual root cause of what's causing those symptoms. And today, I want to actually talk about vulnerable third party components. This is something that has been kind of brought to the attention a lot more in the past few years, made it into the OWASP, top 10. And it's something I think everybody struggles with, we never know when we'll have a vulnerable third party component, because until somebody actually identifies a vulnerability, we just assume that we're good. And then on top of that, if there is a vulnerability identified, then we also run the chances that we're probably not even using that feature.  So vulnerable third party components are a really interesting aspect, when we think about secure development. Because there is a lot of unknowns, we may know that there's a vulnerability there. But the actual knowledge of do we use that piece and are we vulnerable, can be difficult, which, in the end, ends up adding a whole bunch of extra work and a whole lot of time for us to try to figure this out and address this stuff. And so this is where I talk about addressing the symptoms. In this case, in a lot of places, what we do is we address that symptom, we know that there's an issue of vulnerable third party components, right, that's the symptom, we have a vulnerable third party component. And so most places have some sort of process in place where we're going to identify these right, we're going to scan them all the time, whether using some of the common commercial tools, maybe you're using a free open source tool. But basically, the way it goes is I'm going to scan my repos or I'm going to scan my packages, and I'm going to look for all the dependencies, and then I'll look at their dependencies, and we'll see if there's any known vulnerable components within these right. And that requires having some sort of CVE out there that says, hey, somebody has found this, they've reported it, I remember requiring this to be a repSend us Fan MailFor more info go to https://www.developsec.com or follow us on X (@developsec).The DevelopSec podcast is brought to you by Jardine Software Inc.

 The headlines are filled with credential breaches. One way to avoid being those headlines is to not store credentials. Instead, use a 3rd party to authenticate your users. While this cuts a lot of work out of your development time, it is important to understand the pros and cons to each method. James talks through some of these risks to help better understand which method might be right for you.   Links from show:Ep. 92: 2-Factor Authentication -  http://podcast.developsec.com/ep-92-2-factor-authenticationEp. 61: Multi-factor Authentication -  http://podcast.developsec.com/ep-61-multi-factor-authenticationEp. 39: Authentication - http://podcast.developsec.com/ep-39-authenticationEp. 2: All About Passwords -  http://podcast.developsec.com/ep-1-all-about-passwordsEp. 73: Identity with Vittorio Bertocci - http://podcast.developsec.com/ep-73-identity-with-vittorio-bertocci   For more info go to https://www.developsec.com or follow us on twitter (@developsec). Join the conversations.. join our slack channel.
