Next Meeting - XSS Lab - Postponed until August 20th, 2009
Due to some location security issues we must postpone the June meeting until August. We will finish the Cross Site Scripting lab on August 20th, 2009 and we will be using a Broomfield location rather that a Fort Collins location.
The good news is we have some new sites to attack and defend with the help of Anurag Agarwal, the Director of Education at WhiteHat Security and we will have a much more intense lab. We wholeheartedly apologize for the delay but it will be worth the wait.
Please join the Boulder OWASP Chapter on Thursday, August 20th, 2009 at Staples for a XSS lab. THREE levels of labs - beginner, intermediate, and advanced.
Cross-site scripting LAB - Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced
