Participation
Local OWASP Chapter meetings are FREE and OPEN to anyone interested in learning more about application security. We encourage chapter members to share knowledge via hands-on training and presentations of specific OWASP projects and vendor agnostic security research topics. Speakers should review the standard speaker agreement and utilize the OWASP Powerpoint template. As a 501(3)c non-profit association donations are encouraged of meeting space and/or refreshments and tax-deductible donations can be made online using the below donation button. Prior to participating with OWASP please review the Chapter Rules and the OWASP Overview Slides.

Call for Speakers
This is a call for speakers/papers. If we haven't approached you, but you believe you have a significant discovery or new research that the security community would value, or enjoy hearing about, we invite you to submit your presentation topic for serious consideration. Preference will be given to speakers who can present new and innovative technical content to a broad audience. Of course, all presentations are expected to challenge the brightest and quickest of attendees - we wouldn't have it any other way.
OWASP is not a vendor fair. Consequently, there will be very little tolerance for commercial content within presentations. Attendees will be encouraged to quell any shameless marketing that is not immediately backed up with rationale for its inclusion.
Some topics of interest for upcoming meetings include (but are not limited to):
- Breaking CAPTCHA
- Hacking Cardspace and Identity 2.0
- Breaking Commercial Software for Fun and Profit
- Tactics for breaking software licensing schemes
- Gaming, the next overlooked security hole
- Hacking Mainframes
- Database rootkits
