Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto - Security Robots a la Unit-Testing

Explore security testing methodologies and challenges in this Black Hat conference talk. Delve into the difficulties faced by both security and development industries in identifying vulnerabilities in custom code. Learn about current security tools, their weaknesses, and costs. Discover the potential of unit testing frameworks for security testing, including inoculating applications, maintaining functional states, and ensuring consistent responses. Gain insights from lessons learned, such as the complexities of math in security, developer knowledge, and identifying endpoints. Examine real-world examples of security payloads, encoding problems, and test generation techniques. Witness a demonstration of innovative approaches to security testing that bridge the gap between development and security practices.
