Thank you to our meeting sponsor, Concord.

Date: Monday, February 28, 2011

Time: Room opens at 6:15 PM, speaker at 6:30 PM

Location: GET DIRECTIONS to Concord, 509 2nd Avenue S, Hopkins MN 55343. Go to the Main Entrance Lobby.

Speaker: Adam Baso

Topic: Application Security in a Nutshell

Description: Application security threats loom, but many teams are left wondering what to do about it. Adam Baso will give a fast-paced tour of all the stuff you need to know: a simple set of processes, common appsec bugs and their fixes, and resources. Adam will also be seeking help from the community for OWASP AppSec USA 2011 (www.appsecusa.org), which is being hosted in Minneapolis September 20-23, 2011.

Bio: Adam loves software. He started on a single-line LCD BASIC system at his cousin's house, graduated to Perl in the early years of the web, hammered out lots of PHP for small gigs during college and after, and then took on Java and .NET programming for geospatial applications before teaching a C# course and pursuing his childhood dream of getting paid to hack for the good guys. Adam passed the SCJP exam, and he holds a day job in the Security Business Practice at Symantec as a Senior Security Consultant in the field of software security, interacting daily with lots of fun technology and people.
