Create Secure Applications with Go

Join us to learn how you can create secure applications using Go. This session will be the second in our "Grow with STL Go" series of workshops for beginners. You'll learn where and when to use cryptography to secure data on disk and in transit while minimizing unintentional data leaks. If you are just getting started with Go development, this is an ideal session for you! Presenter: Andy Schiefelbein Andy is currently working in cyber security at a telecommunications company. He has had a 26 year career in technology, has a Masters in Computer Science, and 7 software patents to his name. When not toiling away the hours in the underground digital salt mines you can often find him playing bass trombone in various organizations around town or volunteering with the Missouri Master Gardners. 00:00 Introduction 00:25 Protecting our data 02:46 Using Wireshark 06:47 Data at rest 08:21 Ciphers and hashing 23:54 Adding SSL encryption 31:06 The weakest link 33:55 Questions and Answers 41:19 Encrypting configuration 44:03 Additional Q&A Resources described in the talk (in order of mention): - https://github.com/stlgo/grow-with-stl-go/blob/master/docs/cryptography.md - https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-science/cryptography/crypt/v/intro-to-cryptography - https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rdriley/487/papers/Thompson_1984_ReflectionsonTrustingTrust.pdf Show notes and other resources may be found in our Github repository: https://github.com/stlgo/presentations/tree/main/2024-04-24-GrowWithStLGo-2 SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@stltechmeetups FOLLOW us on X: https://twitter.com/StLGoMeetup #Golang #Beginner #Developer #SecureApplications
