Synopsis

Secure by Design - Managing technology change has significant challenges for Security. Delivering robust outcomes requires embedding a consistent framework from the start of the design process through to go live.

This talk describes the framework BT has developed for Secure by Design that scales to a large enterprise and is tried and tested from the pain of experience. Designing Offensively - In order to build a solution that is secure, architects and designers must consider threats to their solution.

Designing offensively takes into consideration active threats against a solution and targets technical security controls to combat them. As the saying goes, "the best course of defence is offense".
