From Guidance Share

I'm currently a Program Manager for the patterns & practices:http://msdn.com/practices group at Microsoft which produces patterns & practices, where he focuses on software engineering and quality attributes. I've performed more than 750 architecture and design reviews for customers and use that experience to create customer-facing guidance. In addition to several knowledge base articles, MSDN Magazine articles, and online MSDN articles, I've authored the following books:

• Improving .NET Application Performance and Scalability (ISBN: 0-7356-1851-8)
• Improving Web Application Security: Threats and Countermeasures (ISBN: 0-7356-1842-9)
• Building Secure ASP.NET Applications (ISBN: 0-7356-1890-9)

J.D.'s more recent work includes creating an updated Threat Modeling approach specifically for Web applications (http://msdn.microsoft.com/ThreatModeling), integrating security engineering activities into MSF Agile and creating application security guidance for .NET Framework 2.0.
