Led by Arxan Technologies Technical Director Jonathan Carter, the discussion will examine the subtle, yet dominant shift that has taken place in the computing industry over the last decade that has allowed sensitive code to be executed in a variety of untrustworthy computing environments, especially mobile settings. Carter will highlight the impact of this shift on traditional application security practices, the new risk variables that must be considered, and application integrity protection techniques that complement overall risk mitigation requirements. From a world of web applications to mobile applications, Carter will specifically outline what needs to be done to adequately address problems such as malware insertions, security disablement via reverse engineering and hacking attacks that are rapidly surfacing in the Age of the App.
