Hi,


My name is Ferdinand Vroom and I am a OWASP Chapter Leader of the Netherlands Chapter.

I joined the OWASP Netherlands Chapter from it's inaugural meeting on the 17th of November 2005.

Some months later, I was asked to join the Chapter Board.

Within the Neherlands Chapter I fulfill communication, planning & logistics and budget tasks.


I enjoy OWASP because of the many projects and the diverse people working to reach common goals.

Geeky security stuff mixed with process and people on a mission to spread the web application security word.


Greetings,


Ferdinand
