Edited: Sep 30, 2018

Hey everyone, Submissions are rolling in and PauseOnSecurity session curation/development is in full effect as we speak. Here's sampling of some exciting topics that may be in store for us in Chicago. Note these aren't final yet but it's starting to look like an awesome show:

Session topics submitted - coming up with a set of indicators for catching security problems in a DDR

- exploring vulnerabilities we face in the cloud

- what we learned implementing GDPR

- security and microservices/API used with FileMaker

- how to apply security concepts from the Department of Defense context to FileMaker

- keeping FMS secure on AWS

- show and tell on FileMaker security threats

- discussing the art and science of security communication to fellow developers

- FM & IoT--let's make a facial recognition FileMaker thingy together.

    Running w/ Scissors - Where are we and where should we go?

    by Josh Ormond This will be intended as an open discussion about ways to educate the community, the current state of security in the general community, and some of the misconceptions we need to push back against. How do we get on the same page, as experts interested in helping secure sensitive data and files? How do we distribute that message? Right now, there are too many running with scissors, and don't see any danger in it. Can we as a group do something to raise the message so people get it?

    Security Threat Matrix - Threats facing FileMaker developers

    by Alan Deffenderfer This session is intended to be a brief introduction to several key security concepts, such as defense in depth, attack surface, separation of duties, network design and, more broadly, risk management, used in the DOD context. It will then become an open discussion about how those concepts might apply to large multi-module, multi-file FileMaker solutions using data separation across multiple sites, connected to disparate data sources (Oracle, for example) for numerous user groups accessing FileMaker through Web Direct, FM Client, iOS, PhP and the Data API.

    To Store or Not To Store, That Is The Question

    by Chris Irvine A fast paced discussion to examine all the places in the FileMaker universe where passwords can be stored. For each situation, we'll apply a healthy level of business and security scrutiny. Walk away more informed, write smarter solutions, deploy safely, and give good advice to your users/clients. Also, one other thing, just because there wasn't a box for it. For my "storing passwords" concept, I'd really like a co-facilitator that can record audience contributions on a whiteboard or giant pad. I'm not sure if there are people who would like to get some involvement without leading a session of their own. (Plus my handwriting is terrible and I'm a guy so I can't do two things at once.)
