You are NOT just a developer

Cyber Security is part of your job

There is a lot of misconception among developers and managers about the nature and responsibility of web application security. Contrary to popular beliefs:

  • Crackers RARELY use complex methods to attack websites

    Looking at the OWASP Top 10 we can see, that most attacks are preformed using simple attack vectors that rely on ignorance or negligence on the part of the developers. Attacks using zero-day or underlying OS exploits are rare and used only against high-profile targets.

  • Defending is CHEAPER than being a victim

    Breaches in security are becoming more and more expensive - according to recent survey by PWC the average cost of a breach for small companies is between 116 000$ - 480 000$, and between 2 250 000$ - 4 860 000$ for big companies.

  • Your website is NOT too small to be of no interest

    The website you build might not be the Facebook with 100s of millions of users, doesn't matter. Attackers use mass scanning techniques to find and compromise easy targets no matter how small, because its ultimately your users that they are after. Breaking your security can help compromise more prominent targets - you might just be the weakest link in the chain.

  • Cyber Security is YOUR concern

    Experts in the field spend most of their time looking for new vulnerabilities or preforming penetration testing to discover your code's deficiencies. Mitigation within your application is not their job - it's yours. Learn and become a better developer so you won't have to discover vulnerabilities through exploits.
