Design for Secure Applications

• SQL injection attack – User enters SQL statement into a form instead of a name

or other data. Accepted code becomes part of database commands

issued.Improper data disclosure, data damage, and loss

possible.Well designed applications make injections ineffective.

Case 12: Will You Trust FIDO?

• One-third of all people record passwords somewhere, whether on a sticky note or in a computer file.

• Malicious code searches for files that include "password" or some variant.

• Many web sites offer to authenticate you using your Facebook or other common credentials.

• Use credentials only at site where created.

12-42

Alternatives to Passwords

• Biometric: Fingerprints, retinal scans, keystroke rhythm

• Picture password in Windows 8User makes three gestures over a photo.Asking user to name people in group photo or provide

facts about people in photo.

• One defect: If user’s authentication compromised once, it is compromised for all sites where that authentication method used.

Fast Identity OnLine (FIDO)

C o p y r i g h t © 2 0 1 5 P e a r s o n E d u c a t i o n , I n c .

12-44

Will You Trust FIDO? Probably

• FIDO does not eliminate need to send private data over the Internet, but substantially reduces it.

• Password or PIN never sent over a network.

• Forming open standards and asking the community to find holes and problems long before standard is implemented.

• Support of major, well-funded organizations.
