&lt;br /&gt;
This article intends to provide quick basic Ruby on Rails security tips for developers. The Rails framework abstracts developers from quite a bit of tedious work and provides the means to accomplish complex tasks quickly and with ease. New developers, those unfamiliar with the inner-workings of Rails, likely need a basic set of guidelines to secure fundamental aspects of their application. The intended purpose of this doc is to be that guide.&lt;br /&gt;

===Thursday, January 31st at 6PM===&lt;br /&gt;
Sponsored by: Imperva and AlertLogic&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Join us for an OWASP Houston Workshop.  During this workshop, attendees will be lead through the process of discovering and reporting vulnerabilities.  We will start by reviewing source code for common vulnerabilities.  Once we identify interesting code, we will test the application to confirm our findings.  Finally, we will discuss reporting.  If you would like to participate please bring your laptop.  You should prepare a virtual machine with Linux, Apache, Mysql, and PHP. We will have members helping with virtual machine configurations and assistance.  If you just want to watch, that's fine too.  We look forward to your attendance.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year. This opportunity is limited to one company. We'll credit you for it in all promotions, list you as a sponsor on the website.  The whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Call for Papers=&lt;br /&gt;
==Call for Papers==&lt;br /&gt;
We're actively accepting abstracts. Please send all abstracts to paul dot scott at owasp dot org.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Local News=&lt;br /&gt;
==Local News==&lt;br /&gt;
Worthwhile information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==November 5th 2012==&lt;br /&gt;
Houston OWASP Chapter has been activated. Please join us in making this a successful security meetup. First meeting to finalize details around 2013 series of meeting has been scheduled for November 19th, 2012.

&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Join us for an OWASP Houston Workshop.  During this workshop, attendees will be lead through the process of discovering and reporting vulnerabilities.  We will start by reviewing source code for common vulnerabilities.  Once we identify interesting code, we will test the application to confirm our findings.  Finally, we will discuss reporting.  If you would like to participate please bring your laptop.  You should prepare a virtual machine with Linux, Apache, Mysql, and PHP. We will have members helping with virtual machine configurations and assistance.  If you just want to watch, that's fine too.  We look forward to your attendance.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year. This opportunity is limited to one company. We'll credit you for it in all promotions, list you as a sponsor on the website.  The whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Call for Papers=&lt;br /&gt;
==Call for Papers==&lt;br /&gt;
We're actively accepting abstracts. Please send all abstracts to paul dot scott at owasp dot org.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Local News=&lt;br /&gt;
==Local News==&lt;br /&gt;
Worthwhile information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==November 5th 2012==&lt;br /&gt;
Houston OWASP Chapter has been activated. Please join us in making this a successful security meetup. First meeting to finalize details around 2013 series of meeting has been scheduled for November 19th, 2012.

==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year. This opportunity is limited to one company. We'll credit you for it in all promotions, list you as a sponsor on the website.  The whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;

===Thursday, January 31st at 6PM===&lt;br /&gt;
Sponsored by: Imperva and AlertLogic&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Join us for an OWASP Houston Workshop.  During this workshop, attendees will be lead through the process of discovering and reporting vulnerabilities.  We will start by reviewing source code for common vulnerabilities.  Once we identify interesting code, we will test the application to confirm our findings.  Finally, we will discuss reporting.  If you would like to participate please bring your laptop.  You should prepare a virtual machine with Linux, Apache, Mysql, and PHP. We will have members helping with virtual machine configurations and assistance.  If you just want to watch, that's fine too.  We look forward to your attendance.&lt;br /&gt;

Sponsored by: Imperva and AlertLogic&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Join us for an OWASP Houston Workshop.  During this workshop, attendees will be lead through the process of discovering and reporting vulnerabilities.  We will start by reviewing source code for common vulnerabilities.  Once we identify interesting code, we will test the application to confirm our findings.  Finally, we will discuss reporting.  If you would like to participate please bring your laptop.  You should prepare a virtual machine with Linux, Apache, Mysql, and PHP. We will have members helping with virtual machine configurations and assistance.  If you just want to watch, that's fine too.  We look forward to your attendance.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year. This opportunity is limited to one company. We'll credit you for it in all promotions, list you as a sponsor on the website.  The whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Call for Papers=&lt;br /&gt;
==Call for Papers==&lt;br /&gt;
We're actively accepting abstracts. Please send all abstracts to paul dot scott at owasp dot org.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Local News=&lt;br /&gt;
==Local News==&lt;br /&gt;
Worthwhile information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==November 5th 2012==&lt;br /&gt;
Houston OWASP Chapter has been activated. Please join us in making this a successful security meetup. First meeting to finalize details around 2013 series of meeting has been scheduled for November 19th, 2012.

This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;

Sponsored by: Imperva and AlertLogic&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Join us for an OWASP Houston Workshop.  During this workshop, attendees will be lead through the process of discovering and reporting vulnerabilities.  We will start by reviewing source code for common vulnerabilities.  Once we identify interesting code, we will test the application to confirm our findings.  Finally, we will discuss reporting.  If you would like to participate please bring your laptop.  You should prepare a virtual machine with Linux, Apache, Mysql, and PHP. We will have members helping with virtual machine configurations and assistance.  If you just want to watch, that's fine too.  We look forward to your attendance.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Join us for an OWASP Houston Workshop.  During this workshop, attendees will be lead through the process of discovering and reporting vulnerabilities.  We will start by reviewing source code for common vulnerabilities.  Once we identify interesting code, we will test the application to confirm our findings.  Finally, we will discuss reporting.  If you would like to participate please bring your laptop.  You should prepare a virtual machine with Linux, Apache, Mysql, and PHP. We will have members helping with virtual machine configurations and assistance.  If you just want to watch, that's fine too.  We look forward to your attendance.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;hr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
We're organizing at [http://meetup.com/owasp-houston meetup.com] you don't have to use your real name but you should consider registering so we can get a good idea of who is planning to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year. This opportunity is limited to one company. We'll credit you for it in all promotions, list you as a sponsor on the website.  The whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

We will have members helping with virtual machine configurations and assistance.  If you just want to watch, that's fine too.  We look forward to your attendance.&lt;br /&gt;

=RSVP=&lt;br /&gt;
===RSVP===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;hr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
We're organizing at [http://meetup.com/owasp-houston meetup.com] you don't have to use your real name but you should consider registering so we can get a good idea of who is planning to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year. This opportunity is limited to one company. We'll credit you for it in all promotions, list you as a sponsor on the website.  The whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Call for Papers=&lt;br /&gt;
==Call for Papers==&lt;br /&gt;
We're actively accepting abstracts. Please send all abstracts to paul dot scott at owasp dot org.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Local News=&lt;br /&gt;
==Local News==&lt;br /&gt;
Worthwhile information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==November 5th 2012==&lt;br /&gt;
Houston OWASP Chapter has been activated. Please join us in making this a successful security meetup. First meeting to finalize details around 2013 series of meeting has been scheduled for November 19th, 2012.

=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;

=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year. This opportunity is limited to one company. We'll credit you for it in all promotions, list you as a sponsor on the website.  The whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500.

Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;

==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $500 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have three of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $1,500. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year.

=Sponsorship Opportunities=&lt;br /&gt;
==Sponsorship Opportunities==&lt;br /&gt;
We're always looking for sponsors to help us provide the highest quality experience for our attendees. For sponsoring OWASP Houston we will list your name on our site, mention your sponsorship in all announcements on the mailing list, send us a banner and we'll hang it at the event, and send you some pictures. If you'd like to send someone to attend the event we will make room for a table. We encourage sponsors to have raffles to try and capture leads. Rather than sponsoring just one event consider sponsoring a few from the 2013 series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #0 - Workshops==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have four workshops in 2013. These will be meetings dedicated to hands on education. This could be related to programming a vulnerability scanner, auditing source code, exploiting a vulnerability, or mini-ctf. Your sponsorship of this event includes appetizers and beverages for the attendees. Due to popularity, sponsoring a workshop is a $500 dollar commitment. For $2,000 dollars you can sponsor every workshop of 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #1 - Happy Hour Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will have three happy hour meetings in 2013. These will be social meetings where attendees build a local security community. We estimating the need for $400 in food and drink per meeting. By giving sponsors drink tickets to hand to attendees, we ensure that our sponsors are able to interact with everyone looking for another drink. Feel free to pass out business cards and network just like you would anywhere else. We will have seven of these types of meetings in 2013 so you can sponsor all of them for just $2,100. On months where we have a formal meeting we will not hold an informal meetup. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #2 - Formal Presentation Meeting==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At our quarterly meetings we will be hosting two quality presenters. Generally we try to pull one presenter from out of state. Your sponsorship of this event includes food and beverages for the attendees. We are seeking $700 per sponsor to cover our expenses. Consider supporting the Houston OWASP community by sponsoring all of our quarterly meetings for $2,800.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #3 - OWASP Presenter Sponsorship==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although OWASP is a non-profit organization, we strive to provide our members with the best presenters possible. In exchange for covering travel expenses for these presenters, our chapter will provide you with five minutes at the start of the meeting to introduce yourself and tell us about the products or services that your company offers. This benefit is in addition to special mention for sponsoring the travel. The speakers traveling expenses may vary but with a $1,200 donation we think we can handle the rest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opporutnity #4 - Meeting Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We currently need funds to secure a stable meeting space for our quarterly presentations and workshops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Opportunity #5 - Lock Pick Table==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are coordinating a lock picking table at every event. To help us get some new locks and create some mock door setups. For $1,000 bucks you can sponsor the table for a whole year.
