Organizations spend hundreds of work hours to build applications and services that will benefit customers and employees alike. Whether the application/service is externally facing or for internal use only, it is mandatory to identify and understand the scope of potential cyber risks and threats it poses to the organization. But where and how do you start with an accurate threat model? Nick can discuss how to approach this and create a model that's useful to security and developers alike.

Most of the myths and lies in InfoSec take hold because they seem correct or sound logical. Similar cognitive biases make it possible for even the most preposterous conspiracy theories to become commonly accepted in some groups. This is a talk about the importance of critical thinking and checking sources in InfoSec. Our industry is relatively new and constantly changing. Too often, we operate more off faith and hope than fact or results. Exhausted and overworked defenders often don't have the time to seek direct evidence for claims, question sources, or test theories for themselves.
