For the Network Security Guy Who Knows Nothing about Web Applications
Most security officers are not software developers, and rarely do they have control over the security associated with internally developed software systems. However, CSO's are still frequently held accountable when externally-facing software is compromised and a breach occurs. Unless security professionals radically upgrade their knowledge of software and software development techniques, they will continue to inadequately manage the risk that custom software systems represents to the enterprise.
Presented by John Dickson of Denim Group and Jeremiah Grossman of WhiteHat Security, this webinar will help non-development security managers understand the salient aspects of the software development process and to upgrade their IQ on software. It will help them to identify risks with different assessment approaches, how to inject themselves into the development process at key "waypoints," and to understand ways to influence development peers to write more secure code.

Php Security Value1
Php Security Value1Aung Khant PHP is a widely used language for web applications and is expanding into enterprise markets. It is important to secure PHP applications as they often work with sensitive data and deal with user inputs that cannot be fully trusted. Proper input validation is needed to validate any user input before use to prevent unexpected modifications or intentional attempts to gain unauthorized access through the application.
Privilege Escalation
Privilege EscalationAung Khant This whitepaper discusses automated testing of privilege escalation vulnerabilities in web applications. It explains that privilege escalation occurs when an attacker is able to access unauthorized functions by exploiting vulnerabilities. The whitepaper then introduces Watchfire App Scan 7.0, which allows for automated privilege escalation testing of web applications to identify vulnerabilities without manual effort. It concludes that automated testing is needed to effectively test for privilege escalation issues at scale.

It introduces Chris as an author on PHP security books and articles, and a founder of the PHP Security Consortium. The outline then lists security principles and best practices as topics to be covered, along with common PHP vulnerabilities. It concludes with a section for questions and answers.
Preventing Xs Sin Perl Apache
Preventing Xs Sin Perl ApacheAung Khant Cross-site scripting attacks pose a common security threat to websites that display user-submitted content without validation. Perl and mod_perl provide built-in solutions to prevent cross-site scripting by checking for malicious script tags. A new mod_perl module called Apache::TaintRequest further secures applications by applying Perl's tainting rules to HTML output.
Protecting Web App
Protecting Web AppAung Khant This white paper discusses protecting web applications from attacks and misuse. It explains that the threat facing organizations has shifted from network exploits to attacks targeting web and web services applications. While security vendors have created products to shield web apps, there is confusion around the actual threats and best protection methods. The white paper aims to provide clarity on the requirements for viable web application security solutions, such as inspecting application communications rather than just IP packets and detecting attacks.

The author acknowledges incorporating feedback received after publishing version 2.0 of the document.
Secure Cross Domain Communication
Secure Cross Domain CommunicationAung Khant Subspace is a cross-domain communication mechanism that enables secure data sharing between domains for web mashups. It allows third-party code and data to be safely integrated into applications while preserving security. The authors developed Subspace to address browsers' poor ability to pass data between domains, as this frequently forces developers to compromise security for the sake of functionality in web mashups.
Securing Php
Securing PhpAung Khant Securing PHP discusses approaches to web application security and securing PHP applications. It notes that while operating system security is out of PHP's control, the language aims to help developers write more secure code and run it securely. The paper indicates that most PHP application vulnerabilities stem from insecure code that allows untrusted data in outputs like cross-site scripting attacks or database queries. It provides a short overview of past and current security techniques for PHP to address these issues at the language and platform level.

Influence of Career Development on Retention of Employees in Private Univers...
Influence of Career Development on Retention of Employees in Private Univers...publication11 Retention of employees in universities is paramount for producing quantity and quality of human capital for
economic development of a country. Turnover has persistently remained high in private universities despite
employee attrition by institutions, which can disrupt organizational stability, quality of education and reputation.
Objectives of the study included performance appraisal, staff training and promotion practices on retention of
employees. Correlational research design and quantitative research were adopted. Total population was 85 with a
sample of 70 which was selected through simple random sampling. Data collection was through questionnaire and
analysed using multiple linear regression with help of SPSS. Results showed that both performance appraisal
(t=1.813, P=.076, P>.05) and staff training practices (t=-1.887, P=.065, P>.05) were statistical insignificant while
promotion practices (t=3.804, P=.000, P<.05) was statistically significantly influenced retention of employees.
The study concluded that performance appraisal and staff training has little relationship with employee retention
whereas promotion practices affect employee retention in private universities. Therefore, it was recommended
that organizations renovate performance appraisal and staff training practices while promoting employees
annually, review salary structure, ensure there is no biasness and promotion practices should be based on meritocracy. The findings could benefit management of private universities, Government and researchers.
