Solving Problems That Don't Exist

ABOUT:

In today’s enterprise, Web Application Security has come front and center for security managers as well as the business. The reason many well-funded, well-backed programs fail is because they miss the fundamental rule of problem solving – understand the problem. The secret to success is simple – understand your business context and build a program around that.

How can you develop an actionable, business-risk driven program for your enterprise? Understanding your role within the business is key, followed by successful identification of a cornerstone upon which to base the program. Evaluating data value, application visibility and business exposure one step at-a-time, and assigning real, measurable risk are the necessary steps to making sure your program is well-grounded in business value. Participants will be given a strong foundation to succeed, so they don’t end up solving problems the business doesn’t have.
