Cracking the Code: The Role of Programming in Information Security

In this presentation, we'll explore an unpatched vulnerability within Windows, one that attackers can likely exploit to bypass your defenses. Through the lens of this attack, we'll address a significant question: "Are programming skills a requisite for excelling in the field of information security?" Recent research indicates that approximately 20% of entry-level positions in information security demand proficiency in programming. Yet, the ongoing debate in online forums highlights the uncertainty surrounding the necessity of coding skills. Join me as we navigate through this discussion, examining the intricate relationship between coding expertise and achieving success in the realm of information security.

Fast forward to today and Mark’s infosec career spans nearly 30 years with 15 of those years spent teaching for SANS. Mark is currently a senior instructor for SANS and an independent consultant through his company Indepth Defense providing forensics, incident response, and penetration testing services. Mark has also served as the technical advisor to the DoD for SANS since 2011, where he assists various government organizations in the development of information security capabilities.
