POPULARITY
Machine Learning appears to have made impressive progress on many tasks including image classification, machine translation, autonomous vehicle control, playing complex games including chess, Go, and Atari video games, and more. This has led to much breathless popular press coverage of Artificial Intelligence, and has elevated deep learning to an almost magical status in the eyes of the public. ML, especially of the deep learning sort, is not magic, however. ML has become so popular that its application, though often poorly understood and partially motivated by hype, is exploding. In my view, this is not necessarily a good thing. I am concerned with the systematic risk invoked by adopting ML in a haphazard fashion. Our research at the Berryville Institute of Machine Learning (BIIML) is focused on understanding and categorizing security engineering risks introduced by ML at the design level. Though the idea of addressing security risk in ML is not a new one, most previous work has focused on either particular attacks against running ML systems (a kind of dynamic analysis) or on operational security issues surrounding ML. This talk focuses on the results of an architectural risk analysis (sometimes called a threat model) of ML systems in general. A list of the top five (of 78 known) ML security risks will be presented. About the speaker: Gary McGraw is co-founder of the Berryville Institute of Machine Learning. He is a globally recognized authority on software security and the author of eight best selling books on this topic. His titles include Software Security, Exploiting Software, Building Secure Software, Java Security, Exploiting Online Games, and 6 other books; and he is editor of the Addison-Wesley Software Security series. Dr. McGraw has also written over 100 peer-reviewed scientific publications. Gary serves on the Advisory Boards of Code DX, Maxmyinterest, Runsafe Security, and Secure Code Warrior. He has also served as a Board member of Cigital and Codiscope (acquired by Synopsys) and as Advisor to Black Duck (acquired by Synopsys), Dasient (acquired by Twitter), Fortify Software (acquired by HP), and Invotas (acquired by FireEye). Gary produced the monthly Silver Bullet Security Podcast for IEEE Security & Privacy magazine for thirteen years. His dual PhD is in Cognitive Science and Computer Science from Indiana University where he serves on the Dean's Advisory Council for the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering.
Gary McGraw is the Vice President of Security Technology at Synopsys, the best-selling author of "Software Security" and 11 other books, and the man behind the Silver Bullet Security Podcast.

As part of our ongoing discussion about the #SDLC and getting security baked in as far left as possible, Joe Gray, host of the Advanced Persistant Security #Podcast (find it at https://advancedpersistentsecurity.net/), Mr. Boettcher, and I sat down with Dr. Gary McGraw, author of "Software Security: Building Security In" to discuss his book. We are also doing this book as part of the Brakeing Security Book Club (check out our #Slack channel for more information). Gary walks us through the 7 Kingdoms of getting more security in, including doing automated and manual code audits, proper penetration testing of the application at various stages (testing), documentation (if you don't know it works, how can you test it?), and your Security Operations people, monitoring for things once it goes into production. Also, find out what Chapter he thinks you should skip altogether... the answer may surprise you... :) Join Mr. Gray, Mr. Boettcher, and I for a discussion with a true leader in the software and application security industry.

As a discipline, software security has made great progress over the last decade. There are now at least 46 large scale software security initiatives underway in enterprises including global financial services firms, independent software vendors, defense organizations, and other verticals. In 2008, Brian Chess, Sammy Migues and I interviewed the executives running nine initiatives using the twelve practices of the Software Security Framework as our guide. Those companies among the nine who graciously agreed to be identified include: Adobe, The Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC), EMC, Google, Microsoft, QUALCOMM, and Wells Fargo. The resulting data, drawn from real programs at different levels of maturity was used to guide the construction of the Building Security In Maturity Model (BSIMM). This talk will describe the observation-based maturity model, drawing examples from many real software security programs. A maturity model is appropriate because improving software security almost always means changing the way an organization works---people, process, and automation are all required. While not all organizations need to achieve the same security goals, all successful large scale software security initiatives share common ideas and approaches. Whether you rely on the Cigital Touchpoints, Microsoft's SDL, or OWASP CLASP, there is much to learn from practical experience. Since its March release, the BSIMM is being expanded to include BSIMM Europe, BSIMM II, and BSIMM Lite. Use the BSIMM as a yardstick to determine where you stand and what kind of software security plan will work best for you.
