OWASP Project of the Month & Upcoming Global AppSec
=CURRENTLY WORKING ON=


 * AppSec APAC 2014
 * I spent all of last week in Tokyo, Japan helping with the OWASP AppSec APAC 2014 global conference.
 * Laura Grau and I were the only two staff members that attended the event.
 * The OWASP Japan chapter put on an amazing conference this year.
 * It was excellent to see the team work so efficiently to put on the event.
 * There were a few lessons learned, but overall it was an excellent experience.
 * I primarily helped run the merchandize store at the event, and I participated in the Women in AppSec panel.


 * Women in AppSec: AppSec APAC 2014
 * The Women in AppSec program at AppSec APAC 2014 was absolutely excellent.
 * I have to thank the OWASP Japan team and especially Okada-san and Dracea-san for making the panel session such a success.
 * I am taking lessons learned from this session, and I am going to apply it to other conferences if they choose to run the program.
 * Our winner was Hiromi Tsuchiya, and our runner-up was Ikue Yamanishi.


 * Graphic Designer Update
 * We have finalized the last interviews for our part-time graphic design role.
 * Our final candidate has now been selected.
 * We are in the process of putting together an offer for our selected candidate.
 * We hope to have the new designer start very soon.


 * 2014 Project Summit
 * I have been working on getting some ideas for summit sessions from the community for our 2014 Project Summit.
 * The summit will be taking place in Cambridge, UK this year in June.
 * I currently have one session scheduled for the summit lead by Kostas.
 * I have a few other community members interested in contributing session ideas as well.
 * I am working closely with them to hash out their ideas.
 * I will keep working on this effort.

 * Project based administrative help.
 * Project status information.
 * Several project donation questions.
 * Marketing questions.
