CDI and Enterprise Security

Wednesday January 25th, 2012
6:30 - 8:30 PM

Context and Dependency Injection

Presented by Sang Shin

Among the many new features and improvements introduced in Java EE 6, Context and Dependency Injection (CDI) introduces the most fundamental change, thus will have a far-reaching impact to the way we build Java EE based enterprise applications moving forward. In short, it provides a unifying Dependency Injection and contextual life-cycle model. In this presentation, we are going to go over both basic and advanced features of CDI. Each feature will be explained and demonstrated.

Attendees are also encouraged to bring their own laptops to experiment. The Maven-based sample applications are provided on the website below so that attendees can do the experimentation together with the speaker. Also limited number of memory cards that contain the sample apps are going to be provided on the spot.

Every attendee who fills out the feedback form during / after the event will receive a JRebel or LiveRebel license.

Establishing Enterprise Security and Risk Management Program in an Agile Software Development Organization

Presented by Srini Penchikala

Covers the details of a security program we established to build security risk aspects into all phases of Product Development Lifecycle process. As part of this new program, we defined an agile, iterative, and repeatable security architecture process that includes the touch-points with development process at all levels of the agile projects (Feature, Sprint, Release, Project and Product levels).

  • How the Enterprise Security and Risk Management Program works and its touch-points with other processes in the organization
  • Several Process Flow Diagrams to help learn and use the product risk management program elements and Process Activity details with Goals, Inputs, Outputs, Stakeholders etc
  • Templates for assessing Product Risk Profile, Security Risk Assessment, Security Review and Sign-off
