Things this talk will cover:
Broken crypto code in many payment gateways
Horror stories we’ve seen from various banks
How convoluted security is at various banks and organizations
This is a flashtalk, and is slightly more focused towards people working with banks/payments/developers. I’ll be showing example code that should point out both the obvious and not-so-obvious mistakes that organizations make when it comes to security. The primary takeaways from the talk are fairly simple: Don’t roll your own crypto.
Unfortunately, this golden rule is broken on a daily basis by almost everyone in the industry.
