**Presentation: The Truman Show: Real-world application attacks instead of canned demos**

**Presentation: Protecting Sources and Methods – The Magic of Runtime Security.**

In this talk, we’re going to dive into “runtime security” – a powerful technology that automatically adds powerful trust boundaries to these dangerous methods without requiring any code or process changes. Runtime security enables all four of these key capabilities:

Finding zero-day vulnerabilities in custom code and libraries in real time
Finding known vulnerabilities in libraries and understanding their exploitability
Preventing vulnerabilities from being exploited in production
Creating a digital blueprint of security to drive threat modeling, penetration testing, and risk management

In essence, Runtime Security is a comprehensive approach to app/API security that can replace your suite of legacy tools. Runtime security is already in use in hundreds of thousands of critical apps/APIs in some of the biggest companies in the world. During our session, you’ll learn how to use Runtime Security to streamline application security, accelerate innovation, and improve security at the same time.

In this presentation, Kevin Johnson of Secure Ideas will walk attendees through various scenarios used in penetration testing of applications. These demonstrations will use real attacks and discuss how a penetration tester views applications. This talk will explain the mindset of an attacker, using actual applications as well as demonstration apps to allow for exploitation.
