OWASP EU Summit 2008

OWASP EU SUMMIT 2008 OVERVIEW - WATCH VIDEO

 * OWASP Summit EU 2008 is a worldwide gathering of OWASP leaders and Key Industry Players to present and discuss the latest OWASP Tools and documentation projects.
 * In addition to 40+ presentations from the OWASP Leaders granted 250,000 USD for web application security research, the summit will host multiple Working Sessions designed to improve collaboration, achieve specific objectives and decide roadmaps for OWASP projects, chapters and for the OWASP community itself.
 * Containing both technical and business tracks, the Summit is the perfect place to learn what resources OWASP has available for use today.
 * And with the confirmed presence of its most active leaders (OWASP is partially covering their expenses), the Summit will provide a relaxed but professional environment to meet the OWASP Leaders and to contribute to those project’s roadmaps for 2009.
 * Following and expanding the tradition started at OWASP conferences, the Summit will also host the largest offering of training courses, covering multiple OWASP specific and Web Application Security Topics.
