The Log4j security vulnerability is likely a result of insufficient secure coding and/or testing practices for software that is used in billions of devices worldwide. This vulnerability is now being actively exploited, causing a wide variety of security incidents and privacy breaches. New attacks are announced weekly, and sometimes daily, that are exploiting that vulnerability. How did such a dangerous vulnerability make its way into billions of devices? Hear a preeminent applications development and cybersecurity expert, Dr. Mich Kabay, explain Log4j, how the Log4j vulnerability could have been prevented, and the ways in which similar vulnerabilities can be prevented. We also discuss open source software code security in general, the different types of tests that are used to validate open source software code, and the criticality of doing thorough tests before putting software into production.
