As we all knew it would, JavaScript has finally overtaken the server. This departure from the client to the server introduces a number of security issues and problems that the language does not handle by default. This talk will cover and demonstrate prevalent security vulnerabilities in Node.js applications. In addition, it will address existing security controls within JavaScript code through the use of an intentionally vulnerable Node.js application.
Seth Law (@sethlaw (http://twitter.com/sethlaw)) is the VP of Research & Development at nVisium and wrangles the research efforts into all areas of application security. An experienced Application Security Professional with years of security experience, Seth has worked in multiple disciplines, from software development to network protection, as a manager, contributor, and speaker.
