Past Speaking Engagements

Ruxcon 2006 - Sydney Australia - 30 Sep 06

In recent times web services have seen increasing adoption across the enterprise sector and beyond. Many of these leverage the Internet or extranet communications links, exposing their functionality to external attackers. The security implications of this exposure are not well understood given the relative immaturity of the technology.

Furthermore, existing web application testing methodologies are incongruent with web services specifics. Colin Wong and Daniel Grzelak presented a web services security testing framework to address this issue.

Although web services are a relatively new technology, the same attacks are applicable. While web application security practices have evolved and are now readily adopted, the defensive principles have not been transferred to the web services realm. The speakers discussed and demonstrated new and interesting uses of traditional offensive techniques against web services.
