Ian Lee - Your Secrets are Showing! - How to Find if Your Developers are Leaking Secrets?

This talk will zoom in to the cache of goodies which developers leave lying around that an attacker could leverage access valuable information and / or to pivot through a target environment. It will also highlight some of the tools available to developers and InfoSec professionals to find and prevent these sorts of information leakages.

Every day, developers interact with a variety of source code repositories and environments, often both inside their corporate firewalls and outside on public hosting platforms such as GitHub.com and Amazon AWS. These source code repositories can provide a wealth of information about a target environment, in addition to being of potential value all on their own.

Are you able to find this information in your environment? Do you know how to help your developers prevent these leakages in the first place? Remember "prevention is ideal, but detection is a must!"
