Failures of Shallow, Inconsistent & Incomplete Security
With a number of best security practices, great security concepts
and sincere security implementations, why do security systems
fail? Many fail because the security is trivial, inconsistent
and/or incomplete.
Trivial security may be ridiculed as being useless. Inconsistent
security may be blamed on logic faults, or on the poor
implementation of a sound idea. But of the three, it is the
incomplete security flaws that are often the hardest to identify
and most difficult to fix. Worse still, attacks on systems
with incomplete security often produce the most devastating
results.
We will look at security failures, from the historic to the
modern, for examples of the trivial, inconsistent and incomplete
security: with takeaway lessons that will help you avoid repeating
those mistakes.
