Security Automation Developer Days 2009

MITRE hosted the first-ever Security Automation Developer Days conference on June 8-12, 2009, at MITRE in Bedford, Massachusetts, USA. The five-day conference was technical in nature and focused on the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP).

The purpose of the event was for the community to discuss SCAP in technical detail and to derive solutions that benefit all concerned parties. Discussion topics included NIST SP 800-126, SCAP content management, lifecycle, validation, and remediation; OVAL®, XCCDF, emerging specifications, and perceived gaps in standards coverage; ontology; and use cases.

Materials from the event include the following:
