Front Range OWASP Conference 2012

Welcome
Welcome to SnowFROC 2012, the fourth Front Range OWASP Application Security Conference!

After successful FROC's in June of 2008, March of 2009, and 2010 we are back in Denver, Colorado USA on Thursday the 22nd of March!

This year we again present a full day, multi-track event, which will provide valuable information for managers and executives as well as developers and engineers. ALSO, on Friday March 23rd several instructors from OWASP will be conducting day-long deep-dives!

In 2010, we attracted a packed venue with our great AppSec speakers, and we hope to achieve the same again in 2012.

Logistics


This year, the conference will again be held at University of Colorado, Denver at the Tivoli Student Union (900 Auraria Pkwy # 325E Denver, CO 80204).

Accomodation
OWASP is in the process of negotiating discounted rates with the uber-pimpin Hotel Teatro. Rooms under the FROC rate will be competitively priced and include courtesy Cadillac Escalade transportation to and from Auraria Campus. Currently a "petite queen" room will be reduced from $279/night to $149 by mentioning SnowFROC.
