WALTHAM, Mass., March 31 /PRNewswire/ --

    What:     Jack Danahy, founder and CTO for Ounce Labs, the industry leader
              in software risk analysis, will present a session titled 'Beyond
              the Coding Errors: The Complete View of Software Security' at
              the RSA Conference 2008 next week.

              Session Overview:
              While security professionals and vendors typically focus on
              vulnerabilities caused by coding errors, they often overlook
              improper implementation of critical design elements that may
              cause even greater risk of exposure. This session will offer a
              checklist of baseline security and design policies as well as a
              step-by-step look at how to assess software security before it
              is deployed.

    Where:    The conference is being held on April 7-11 at the Moscone Center
              in San Francisco, CA.

    When:     Mr. Danahy will present on Tuesday, April 8th at 5:40 p.m. PT in
              Red Room 309

    Speaker:  Jack Danahy is founder and chief technology officer of Ounce
              Labs as well as one of the industry's most prominent advocates
              for software security assurance. Prior to Ounce Labs, he founded
              Qiave Technologies, a pioneer in kernel-level security that was
              acquired by WatchGuard Technologies in October of 2000.
              Previously, Danahy served as the managing director of
              engineering for BBN/Genuity's managed security services.
