PDC Birds of a Feather Sessions

Security Briefs

If you're free Tuesday night at PDC, stop by one of my BOFs and hang out with us. These are the same topics I hosted at TechEd, and they were a blast. Some great discussions came out of them.

Writing Secure Code, Tuesday 9:00pm

Bring your questions as well as your experiences to this interactive discussion. Participants share what techniques they are using to ensure bulletproof implementations, including third party tools. Also on the agenda are the top threats that developers need to worry about when writing code. Remember, it's not just the guys calling security APIs that need to worry about this! Anyone writing code to access valuable assets should care about this topic, so let's have a big turnout!

Writing Partially Trusted Code, Tuesday 10:15pm (BYOC)

Writing partially trusted code can be tricky. But a lot of people feel that it's an important tool in our security arsenal: by running with only the permissions we need, the CLR puts walls around our apps to help ensure we can't be tricked into doing something we didn't intend to do. Come discuss the pros and cons of running under partial trust. There are a lot of gotchas, so if you've had experiences, we'd love to hear about them. And if you're just considering taking on the challenge of writing partially trusted code, you'll get a great head start by joining us.

BYOC == Bring Your Own Caffeine ;-)

We travel so much in our normal teaching regime that it's hard to justify (to our families) flying somewhere to do a user group talk - I'm sure you understand.

But I'll keep you in mind if I'm ever in town teaching. I'm happy to do a local user group talk if I'm in town that week.
