Please come join us for our July OWASP Denver Meeting. Enjoy some great food, drinks and networking courtesy of Solutions II.

Presentation:

Static vulnerability analysis is the practice of testing non-running software for application vulnerabilities. It is often referred to as SAST, white box testing, or automated code review. In this session we will cover some of the hows and whys of static analysis and deep dive some of the common issues users of SAST technologies often encounter. Topics will include data flow analysis and taint propagation, scan noise, and partial code scanning, specifically around OWASP Top 10 issues. The material should provide value to anyone with an interest in application security, not just static analysis practitioners.
