Audience

Practitioners and students.

Duration

Half day

Description

Application security is essential to successful e-commerce, and must be part of a larger enterprise security strategy. Security concerns must be addressed in all phases of systems and applications development:

• When defining requirements
• When designing and constructing the application
• When testing the application
• At application deployment

This briefing discusses and describes products from the IBM Tivoli® security suite that provide identity management and provisioning, authentication, authorization, and enterprise single sign-on capabilities as part of the underlying platform, making these important functions an integral part of application security with minimal work required by developers.

Hear the latest on Web application vulnerabilities and malicious hacking. Discussions and demos point out the most common things that hackers look for when attacking a site. See how IBM Watchfire AppScan can be used through the development process to detect both common and obscure vulnerabilities in Web applications. A demonstration of Watchfire AppScan on a non-trivial Web application will show detection of vulnerabilities, generation of reports for internal and external use, and how you can integrate Watchfire Appscan with IBM Rational® ClearQuest to report detected vulnerabilities into the defect tracking system of Rational ClearQuest.

Discussions on security tools and products include:

• Rational Application Developer and Rational Software Architect
• Rational RequisitePro
• Tivoli Access Manager
• Tivoli Identity Manager
• Tivoli Federated Identity Manager
• Rational ClearQuest
• Watchfire AppScan
