Fighting Hackers using HoneyTokens with Dana Epp

Fighting Hackers using HoneyTokens with Dana Epp

Author: Carl Franklin and Richard Campbell July 27, 2021 Duration: 1:06:27
Bring the fight to the hackers with some clever code! Carl and Richard talk to Dana Epp about honeytokens - adding code and elements to your applications that are there only to attract bad actors. Dana talks about how hackers attack applications, looking for vulnerabilities. Often those attempts take weeks or even months and are hard to detect in regular logs. By adding code that would only run if an attacker was trying to exploit, you can raise a red flag to your security team early and take action before the attackers are successful. Have a listen, then chat (preferably over pizza) with your security folks about how you can help!
