The Second Edition of OWASP's flagship conference in South America will happen in Campinas, SP, Brazil. The Conference consists of two days of training sessions, followed by a two-day conference on a single track.

Conference Dates
The conference will happen from November 16th, 2010 to November 19th, 2010. The first two days will be tutorial days (see below). Plenary sessions will be held on November 18th and 19th.

About the conference
Following the success of the first AppSec Brasil, held in Brasilia in 2009, the OWASP Brazilian Chapter is organizing its second edition in 2010. AppSec Brasil 2010 will happen in the city of Campinas, located 90 km from São Paulo.

Campinas is the 3rd biggest city in the State of São Paulo and is an important economic center and hosts major universities and research centers. It is known to concentrate several high tech industries, including important multi-national companies in the fields of electronics, telecom and chemicals.

This year, we expect to gather a number of Brazilian and Latin American practitioners and researchers to share state-of-the-art information about application security.

We are seeking training proposals on the following topics (in no particular order): - Application Threat Modeling - Business Risks with Application Security - Hands-on Source Code Review - Metrics for Application Security - OWASP Tools and Projects - Privacy Concerns with Applications and Data Storage - Secure Coding Practices (J2EE/.NET) - Starting and Managing Secure Development Lifecycle Programs - Technology specific presentations on security such as AJAX, XML, etc - Web Application Security countermeasures - Web Application Security Testing - Web Services, XML- and Application Security - Anything else relating to OWASP and Application Security

Proposals on topics not listed above but related to the conference (i.e. which are related to Application Security) may also be accepted.

To make a submission you must fill out the form available at http://www.owasp.org/images/1/1a/OWASP_AppSec_Brasil_2010_CFT.rtf.zip and submit by email to organizacao2010@appsecbrasil.org

There may be 1 or 2-day courses. The proposals must respect the restrictions of the OWASP Speaker Agreement. The conference will reward trainers with at least 30% of the total revenue of their courses, based on a minimum attendance. Courses that attract more students may be granted higher percentages. No other compensation (such as tickets or lodging) will be provided. If you require a different arrangement, please contact the conference chair at the email address below.

Instructors and authors will be paid based on the number of students in their training sessions. If the training gathers only the minimum number of students, the compensation will be 30% of the revenue. For each group of 10 extra students enrolled, the compensation will be increased by 5% of the revenue, up to a maximum of 45% of the training revenue. For example, a 1-day training with 10 to 19 students will generate a compensation of 30% of the revenue. For classes of 20 to 29 students, the compensation raises to 35% percent of the revenue.

Secure Coding for J2EE Applications
Date and time: November 16th and 17th Instructor: Jason Li Summary Training developers on secure coding practices offers one of the highest returns on investment of any security investment by eliminating vulnerabilities at the source. Aspect’s Java EE Secure Coding Training raises developer awareness of application security issues and provides examples of ‘what to do’ and ‘what not to do.' The class is lead by an experienced developer and is delivered in a very interactive manner. This class includes hands-on exercises where the students get to perform security analysis and testing on a live Java EE web application. This specially designed environment includes deliberate flaws the students have to find, diagnose, and fix. The class also uses Java EE coding exercises to provide students with realistic hands-on secure coding experience. Students gain hands-on experience using freely available web application security test tools to find and diagnose flaws and learn to avoid them in their own code.

Audience The intended audience for this course is intended for Java EE software developers and Java EE software testers who know how to program.

Learning Objectives At the highest level, the objective for this course is to ensure that developers are capable of designing, building, and testing secure Java EE applications and understand why this is important.

 * Access Control
 * Be able to implement access control rules for the user interface, business logic, and data layers.
 * Input Validation
 * Be able to recognize potential input validation issues, particularly injection and Cross-site Scripting (XSS) problems, and implement appropriate input validation mechanisms for user input and other sources of input.
 * Command Injection
 * Understand the dangers of command injection and techniques for avoiding the introduction of this type vulnerability.
 * Error Handling
 * Be able to implement a consistent error (exception) handling and logging approach for an entire web application.
 * Cryptography
