Presentations
Uploading threats: Malware and virus detection and elimination
Wednesday, 11:00 AM CDT
Many of our apps allow users to upload files which then become available for some users to (re)download. Viruses and malware could tailgate these files into your system and infect your users! Join us to learn how to avoid this potential fatal mistake!
Malware and virus-based attacks are on the rise. We have all seen the news stories all around us. How do you easily prevent damage to your corporate reputation and potentially devistating damage to your users from such threats?
Join us for an in-depth discussion and exploration of an effective architecture which detects, isolates and prevents downloading of infected uploaded files. We will also discuss other practical limits you should place on file uploads to avoid performance and UX issues.
Hacker-proof MFA including hardware-based authenticators
Wednesday, 1:30 PM CDT
Zero Trust Security and Authentication is on most CISOs, CTOs and architects top 10 'must do' lists and for good cause! Everywhere you read about bad actors, phishing and ransomware attacks with ever increasing frequency. Join us to learn how to implement one of the safest, most hacker-proof means of authenticating your users available today: Hardware-based authenticators!
Hardware based authenticators include security keys as well as device-resident bio-authenticators such as TouchId and Windows Hello. In this presentation, we will explore these devices, how they are accessed, managed and used to provide virtually hacker-proof authentication in modern web applications. We will discuss the current industry standards and specs which govern these devices and their use including FIDO and WebAuthn.
Zero Trust Security: Effective authentication strategies, architecture and best practices
Wednesday, 3:15 PM CDT
Everywhere you look, security breeches, phishing attacks and ransomware attacks are in the news and should be in the forefront of every technical leader's top 10 concerns. An effective strategy to combat such attacks and vulnerabilities begins with a zero-trust inspired authentication strategy, application architecture and deployment infrastructure.
Join us for an in depth analysis of the current options and best practices around implementing zero-trust compliant, modern authentication architectures and systems.

Resiliency, Reliability and Scalability: Tools and Techniques for the Enterprise
Wednesday, 5:00 PM CDT
You built the app. You are ready to launch! But how do you proceed from there? You need to ensure that, once deployed, your app remains 'up', healthy, available and secure. For that, you are going to need some serious tools in your belt! Join us as we explore the tools and services you can use to complete your deployment stack and give you all of the monitoring and control that you need for a successful launch!
