Make a Fearless Start with Security Testing

Sander van Beek

13:30 - 17:00 CEST, Tuesday 3rd June

Security testing can feel like a daunting task. It’s a test specialty, and often an afterthought. Testers and test automation engineers won’t replace security testers but can prevent many of the most common security vulnerabilities.

Learn about the most common security vulnerabilities according to the OWASP top 10. How do these common vulnerabilities work and why do bad actors want to exploit them?

Learn to design applications that an unskilled bad actor can’t crack. Support your team in making the right decisions throughout the application life cycle.

And, of course, testing the security of applications. Learn how to security-test forms, find known vulnerabilities in dependencies, test API authorization, and more.

To be able to do all these things you need knowledge about common vulnerabilities and the various types of tools that can detect them. In this talk you’ll learn about these tools and when to use them.

What you will learn

  1. How to find these common security vulnerabilities (OWASP top 10).
  2. Help your team design and develop secure products.
  3. Types of security test tooling and what they do.

I’m a technical tester that focuses on automation. To me, a test that’s worth doing is also worth automating. I combine my technical expertise with the human and organizational sides of testing. Technical solutions are great, but the bigger challenge is making people use them at scale.

I think it’s fun to create something new. I think complexity is fun and more complexity is more fun. I use my programming skills to tame complexity.
