Explore runtime application security through the lens of application data traces in this 31-minute conference talk from BSidesSF 2025. Follow Kennedy Toomey as they guide you through the journey of an application data trace navigating runtime security environments. Discover how Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) tools provide real-time insights into application behavior, detect emerging threats, and actively block attacks as they occur. Learn how trace-based approaches enhance security posture by revealing vulnerabilities during actual execution, offering a dynamic perspective that traditional static analysis tools often miss. Understand the limitations of conventional application security tools and how modern trace-following methodologies can bridge critical security gaps in live application environments.
