Charter
The Sacramento OWASP Chapter promotes the principles of OWASP in our local community with an emphasis on education, local networking opportunities, and fun. Meetings are typically on the last Thursday evening of the month.

MEETING: June 24, 2010, 6-8 pm: SQL Injection Lab
Prerequisites

• A basic understanding of Relational Databases

• Installed copy of Virtual Box, running Maven’s Web Security Dojo

SQL Injection can be a serious vulnerability that is actively being exploited "in the wild." This lab will help the attendee understand SQL Injection through live demonstrations and hands-on activities. We will be splitting into groups of 3-4 to perform the lab exercises. Once the lab activities have ended, we will look at methods for limiting and preventing SQL injection.

Please come to the lab prepared with a laptop that contains an installed copy of Virtual Box, running Maven’s Web Security Dojo. The software will provide us with a virtual training environment.
