Talk (Software - Day 1) - Security considerations in Python Packaging
Abstract: Popular programming language index websites (TIOBE index) and developer surveys (Stack Overflow) place Python as one of the fastest-growing programming languages. However, this popularity also puts in the target range of attackers. The attackers perform malicious dependency attacks and use misconfiguration tools to reveal confidential information. In this talk, we will discuss identifying common security issues in Python code and handling malicious dependency attacks using safety.
