Cybersecurity: It’s All About the Coders | Dan Cornell | TEDxSanAntonio

Software developers need to fundamentally rethink the coding process to include an explicit focus on the privacy and security aspects of their code rather than simply regarding it as an afterthought.

A globally recognized application security expert, Dan Cornell has over 15 years of experience architecting, developing, and securing web-based software
systems. As the Chief Technology Officer and a Principal at Denim Group, Ltd.,
he leads the technology team to help Fortune 500 companies and government organizations integrate security throughout the development process. He is also the original creator of ThreadFix, Denim Group’s industry leading applica-tion vulnerability management platform. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree
with Honors in Computer Science from Trinity University where he graduated Magna Cum Laude.

  1. I heard a very important key word: "AFTER THOUGHT". Isn't that the whole problem now facing this world that relies and lives off from all this technology? Just try to be the average person who is trying to attempt to become information technology survival savvy who gets spammed, slammed and laughed at. NICE!

  2. Interesting but I have to disagree with his statement about coders not knowing security. Having been 'coding' for the last decade, security concerns and data protection are areas that are focused on very closely and are integral throughout the design process. An interesting talk though
