Veracode CEO Matt Moynahan to Discuss Independent Software Assessment at Department of Homeland Security Forum
Market Wire, October, 2007
WHO: Matthew Moynahan, President and CEO, Veracode, Inc.
WHAT: Software Assurance Forum, hosted by the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Defense (DoD)
WHEN: Tuesday, October 2, 2007 from 1:40 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. EDT
WHERE: McLean Hilton
7920 Jones Branch Drive
McLean, Virginia 22102
DESCRIPTION: As software applications grow in complexity and size -- with
multi-tier layers that are developed by geographically
distributed workgroups or by offshore developers, the
likelihood of flaws and exploitable vulnerabilities also
increases. Government agencies are increasingly concerned
about the risks that these complex commercial and custom
developed applications can pose to military and civilian
infrastructure. This application security challenge is
further exacerbated by the lack of separation of duties
between the developer and the testers, as well as the lack
of standards and metrics available to quantify the potential
risk posed by vulnerable applications.
In this presentation, Moynahan will discuss how automated,
independent assessments allow organizations to evaluate the
operational risks of internally developed applications, as
well as externally procured applications and components.
Moynahan will also participate in the "SwA EcoSystem Panel"
on Wednesday, October 3, 2007 from 1:30 p.m. - 2:50 p.m.
EDT.
