SQL Injection 2.0: SQL Injection 2.0: Bigger, Badder, Faster…and More Dangerous Than Ever (Webinar)

Thursday, July 31, 2008 2:00 am
Singapore Standard Time (GMT +08:00, Philippines)

SQL Injection has existed as a very real – and documented – threat to enterprise security for years. While the concept is far from novel, the techniques, tools, and scope of SQL Injection attacks is growing exponentially – and at a rate that far outpaces traditional, time-consuming defense mechanisms such as code review. Need proof? A quick scan of the industry headlines produces a lengthy list of international SQL Injection victims, including the United Nations and UK Civil Service.

Join Amichai Shulman, CTO of Imperva and Director of the Application Defense Center (ADC), as he pulls back the covers on the next generation of SQL Injection attacks and provides directions on how you can protect your organization against these increasingly sophisticated and dangerous threats. Mr. Shulman will highlight how hackers are launching non-customized attack code via “botnets” and Google searches to distribute malware with lightning-fast speed and precision efficiency. This educational webinar will also feature live demonstrations of several different types of SQL Injection attacks. Specific topics that will be covered during the webinar include:

• SQL Injection Cocktails
• Mass SQL Injection Attacks and Google Hacking
• SQL Injection Automation Tools
• SQL Injection DoS Attacks
• Lateral SQL Injection and other Database-Related SQL Injection Attacks
