The Security Butterfly Effect
The butterfly effect is traditionally described as the almost imperceptible flap of a butterfly's wings causing changes that result in a tornado being formed (or not!). In information security, a change that seems simple may result in serious vulnerabilities—and as the complexity and interdependence of the environments we manage increase, predicting the effects of apparently innocent actions will become infinitely more challenging. This talk will discuss some notable examples of the butterfly effect in security, as well as giving a brief overview of future hot points to look toward.
